As your trusted local funeral director, we feel it's important that families are fully aware of what an unattended direct cremation entails. A standalone direct cremation, as you might see advertised on television or in press, involves no service for family and friends. It is simply the collection of your loved one, followed by their cremation, and the return of their ashes. In some situations this option can be a positive choice, saving unnecessary cost and allowing mourners to arrange their own tribute. But for some, it does deny an opportunity to say a final goodbye, which often gives closure.

As we head towards the summer bank holiday weekend, we would like to assure families that someone will always be here to help, whenever you need us. Members of our caring and dedicated team will be available by phone and email, all day and through the night, at both Gainsborough and Saxilby. Our family caring for yours, we are here for you in your time of need, whatever the occasion. Standard office hours at our branches over the coming days are as follows.
