You will then be able to request us to remove your loved one to our Chapel of Rest. This can be arranged at any time of the day or night by telephone. Although professional nursing staff are normally in attendance at all times within the Home, a Doctor will be required to confirm the death before we can remove the deceased. On most occasions, the Duty Officer would on behalf of the family, arrange for us to remove the deceased to our Chapel of Rest.

read moreFuneral Services have changed over the years and although traditional services are still popular, more and more people are choosing to personalise their own Service. We strongly believe that families should be given the opportunity to choose exactly how they want to celebrate the life of a loved one. This may be through a poem, favourite piece of music, a picture coffin or even a Motorcycle Hearse to take the deceased on their last journey. We are delighted to supply alternative Funeral Vehicles such as Horse-drawn or Motorcycle.
