One of the hardest things in our life is to bury our own children, and then have to think of the costs that this will involve. For this reason we will allow our simple funeral to be offered free of charge to grieving parents. This will allow for our York coffin and hearse/limousine only, Tameside council is now making charges for the use of their facilities, whether you preferred choice would be burial or cremation, they will not be charging direct but making charge the the Child’s Funeral Charity. This is to try and help with the hardship of having to find fees to pay for a funeral for a child. We will also work through other options with grieving families to allow them to make there own choices too, but this may involve fees, there is a organisation that will now release funds to pay for a childs funerls, should there be any costs incured. Please visit Childs Funeral Charity on our on our helpful links page.
Please feel free to contact us and talk thought your chosen requirements.

We can offer a Direct cremation. This would take place at a crematurium of our choice, at a time stipulated by ourselves. So what is involved in the Direct Cremation. This is the cheapest funeral option available and may not suit all your requirements. We can discusse the requirement at the time of the funeral arragements. We would also like to point out, that in the Direct Cremation option that there is no provisions of a ministerial service at the crematorium. The most popular option, when using the Direct Cremation is a memorial service at a church of your choice, prior to scattering and placing of your loves ones ashes, at rest.
