Talking things through at home

Our staff are happy to visit you in the privacy of your own home to talk things through. Many families find it easier to plan a funeral in familiar surroundings, at their own pace.

If someone has just died, our guide explains what to do when someone dies, and our 24 hour line is answered day and night.

Call our 24 hour line on 0191 586 4322 whenever you need us.

Excellent 5.0 out of 5 from 312 reviews on Trustpilot (as shown on Trustpilot, 9 November 2026)

The whole process of organising my uncles funeral was made much easier due to the support we were given. Ellen guided us through everything and the service, flowers and car were beautiful. We don’t live locally so relied on Ellen’s local knowledge. We couldn’t have asked for better care and kindness x
