We understand the responsibility which is given to us and use our experience to anticipate what help is needed - during the arrangement period, when the funeral happens, and this can continue for some time afterwards. We help families deal with both legal matters and also any special circumstances.
This includes, when appropriate:
- Registration of death and legal documentation.
- Dealing with medical staff, the police, or coroner.
- Caring for, presenting and dressing the person who has died.
- Practical matters such as how to deal with jewellery and other personal effects.
- Making arrangements with clergy and church representatives.
- Liaison with cemetery/crematorium staff.
- Inserting press announcements - our Family Information Pack contains some ideas for verses which may be included.
- Website funeral notices, updated daily on the internet.
- Selecting musical tributes.
- Producing hymn sheets.
- Supplying and caring for floral tributes.
- Providing transport.
- Liaising with caterers.
- Repatriation - there are complex international regulations covering the movement of the person who has died, to or from, anywhere in the world.
Our experience enables us to help you with these and other areas.
