Green Funeral Directors

Cliff Bradley & Sons are proud to be members of the Association of Green Funeral Directors, an organisation established to support funeral homes in offering more environmentally responsible choices, while helping families find services that reflect their values. For us, this is a natural step. In recent years, we have introduced fully electric and hybrid vehicles into our funeral fleet, alongside wider steps to reduce environmental impact across our day to day operations. We also offer a considered range of eco-friendly options, including sustainable coffins, natural burial choices and simpler, more environmentally conscious services.

Membership of the Association reflects both our current approach and our ongoing commitment to improve. Its code of practice promotes transparency, informed choice and the availability of greener alternatives, ensuring families are able to make decisions that are right for them, with a clear understanding of the options available.

Every funeral is personal. For some families, that includes considering environmental impact, choosing materials, methods and settings that align with a more natural approach. Our role is to guide and support those decisions with care, offering practical options without assumption or expectation. As part of the Association of Green Funeral Directors, we will continue to review and develop our practices, helping to reduce impact where possible, while maintaining the standards of care and service that families expect, our family caring for yours.
