Last week, Alan and James were taken, by Superior UK, to visit the Pilato factory in Italy, where our new hearse and limousine is currently being built.

It was incredible to see the skill, precision, and craftsmanship that goes into creating these vehicles.

Every detail is carefully considered, and itโ€™s a privilege to witness the process behind something so important to the families we serve.

Weโ€™re very much looking forward to receiving our new vehicles soon and continuing to provide the highest standards of care and professionalism for our community.

Alan, James and Ben took on the Shropshire Mud Run, this weekend โ€” crisp shirts, tidy ties, and a heroic (but hopeless) attempt to stay clean before Monday. Well done!

Today we celebrate the warmth, resilience, and togetherness that this day inspires. As we share moments with loved ones, we also hold close in our hearts those who are no longer with us.
May their memories bring comfort, may their stories continue to guide us, and may we feel their presence in the small, quiet moments of today.

Today we celebrate the spirit of Wales and the values St David championed: compassion, kindness, and the simple power of doing โ€œthe little thingsโ€ that make a big difference.

As we honour this special day, weโ€™re reminded of the importance of community, care, and supporting one another with gentleness and dignity.

Wishing all who are celebrating a peaceful and meaningful St Davidโ€™s Day.

Today weโ€™re taking a moment to honour the companions who bring comfort, loyalty, and a little extra joy into our lives โ€” our pets.

We understand how deeply animals become part of the family. Theyโ€™re there in our happiest moments and by our side in the hardest ones. So in the spirit of National Love Your Pet Day, our team is sharing a few snapshots of the furry (and not so furry) friends who brighten our days.

At the familyโ€™s request, Alan wore an Arsenal scarf during a recent Funeral Service โ€” a heartfelt nod to the gentlemanโ€™s lifelong support for his beloved club. Itโ€™s a small gesture, but one that speaks volumes about honouring personal wishes.

Weโ€™re proud to help families reflect what mattered most to their loved ones.

Cancer reminds us of the resilience of the human spirit, the importance of early detection, and the power of supportโ€”from families, communities, and healthcare providers.

Today, letโ€™s stand united: to listen, to support, and to act. Because while cancer touches millions, together, we can make a difference. ๐Ÿ’›

Our History

Founder of the business, Frank Painter began serving the local community as a Funeral Director in the 1930โ€™s, followed in later years by his son Alan and more recently by Frankโ€™s grandsons Chris and Mike and great grandsons Alan & Ben.

It has always been of paramount importance to the firm to give every help, advise and assistance to bereaved families. Thus hopefully in some small way easing the trauma, uncertainty and distress caused by bereavement.

The greatest care, respect and dignity is at all time afforded to your loved one. Families who wish to, may visit their loved ones in private, purpose built, dedicated Chapels of Rest. The funeral service offered by ourselves is individually tailored to the requirements of the family concerned and is at all times under the direction and personal supervision of Mr Chris Painter and Mr Mike Painter, whose dedication and commitment is a mirror image of their father and grandfather before them.
