A funeral in Kingsbridge
A funeral in Kingsbridge is an opportunity to celebrate the life of the one you have lost, while remembering what they meant to you, your family and friends.

A more traditional funeral, whether it is a cremation or a burial, usually begins with a funeral procession from the home of your loved one. The Hearse leads, with the cortege following behind, journeying to the service.
  • The service is held in a church or another place of worship, or at the crematorium, depending upon your wishes
  • Following the service, if the committal is being held elsewhere, the funeral procession travels to the final resting place, be it the churchyard by foot, or a cemetery or crematorium by vehicle
  • The committal takes place at the graveside or inside the crematorium, often with a prayer or some final words spoken by the presiding minister or celebrant
  • A funeral wake often follows: a gathering of family and friends at your loved one's home or a local Kingsbridge venue, marking an end to the day.

Frequently asked questions

  • When someone dies, the first steps will depend on how and where the person passed away. Our step-by-step guides will walk you through the practical steps. For additional support and personal advice, please get in touch with us.


  • You don't have to make an appointment at our funeral homes. However, doing so will ensure that someone can be available to cater to your needs. When arranging a funeral, our Funeral Directors are happy to visit you in your own home, if required.


  • Third party funeral costs are additional charges which we will manage for you and attach to your single invoice. Get in touch with us to confirm costs and plan a funeral to fit your budget.


  • If you choose to arrange the funeral with us, you will be given the option of a complimentary Funeral Notice. We will set it up for you using the details discussed during the arrangements. All we need is an email address.


  • Dignity Funeral Plans let you pay for your funeral in advance and at today's price. It's a way of taking control of the unexpected, setting out the arrangements and limiting the costs by paying for the services included in the funeral plan upfront.


  • We are a member of the National Association of Funeral Directors and as such we abide by The Funeral Director Code. We also have a legal obligation to try and ensure the person who is arranging a funeral has the right to do so, or has permission from those who do.

    If you are aware that someone has been appointed as the administrator, you should only arrange the funeral with this person's agreement.

    If there is no Will or Letters of Administration, then the responsibility would pass to the next of kin.
