    Hammerton’s were wonderful and we feel that the small service we had at their in house chapel followed by on site catering was pretty near perfect. I’m sure my 95 year old mother in law would have appreciated the little touches that made it personal…

    Types of funerals

    There are a number of different types of funerals available. Which one you choose will depend on your beliefs, or those of your loved one and whether you chose a burial or cremation. Cremation is the most popular form of funeral with a service at the crematorium, in a church or other venue prior to the cremation.

    If you’d like something a bit different, personalised or less formal than a traditional service, we can support, guide and inspire you to create a farewell that is a true celebration of life.
