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.

From 9 September 2024, there will no longer be a doctor's fee in England and Wales when arranging a funeral. This is because from this date, all deaths in England and Wales will be independently viewed, either by a relevant coroner or by a Medical Examiner and the cost will be met by the NHS.
A Medical Examiner is a specifically trained independent senior doctor who will scrutinise all deaths across a local area that do not fall under the coroner's jurisdiction. By providing a greater level of scrutiny over the cause of deaths; it is hoped that the introduction of Medical Examiners will make it less likely that unnatural causes of death will go unnoticed; that the number of deaths unnecessarily referred to the coroner will be reduced and that national data about causes of death will be captured with greater accuracy.
Medical Examiners, or Medical Examiner Officers, will also be available to meet with families, or their representatives, if they wish to discuss the cause of death.

To all the team at Kenneth Dewey (Hale).
We just wanted to thank you all so much for all your incredible care, support and warmth during such a difficult time following the passing of our beautiful and precious baby girl. As a team you made us feel so welcome and your kindness shone throughout our time with you all, nothing was ever too much trouble and allowing us so much precious time with our girl will remain with us a family forever. Emma who led and directed our service has been incredible from start to finish and worked so hard, along with the whole team, to make us feel at ease and supported from our first contact to the service day itself and in the days after. Emma allowed us time to spend with our daughter and was so caring in her manner and support and also in her ideas for the service day-we are so grateful for everything she and the team has done. The ideas leading up to the funeral and the day itself were full of positivity and care and allowed for the service to move so smooth and perfect. The stress and worry for the day was taken away from us as parents following the teams dedication and hard work. The service had many elements and decorations within it and the crematorium was set up so well (and quickly) and thoughtfully that everything looked as we had hoped for. Once again thank you to the entire team for all you have done, we really are so grateful for all your support, empathy and kindness.
Thank you Emma for everything

I cannot say enough about the incredible service and compassion we received from Kenneth Dewey, following the passing of my partner.
From our first contact I was met with genuine empathy, compassion and professionalism.
Our funeral director was Emma. She was an absolute rock for our family. She talked us through one of the most emotional times of our lives. She was patient, empathetic, and just the most caring person I could have wished for. She guided us through the minefield of arranging the funeral, with suggestions for the coffin, order of service and the video tributes we had.
Nothing was too much trouble. They really did take care of our loved one. From his 1st day there to leaving on the day of the service, and we able to go and see him, and spend as much time as we needed with him.
On the day of the service, everything was perfect. The staff took all the stress out of a very difficult day, and were very attentive to all our needs.
We are so grateful for Emma and her exceptional team, for guiding us through this process at such a difficult time. Even after the service had been done, and we recieved our loved ones ashes back Emma and her team still supported us.
I would highly recommend Kenneth Dewey & Sons Hale-Altrincham for anyone looking for care compassion and professionalism for your final goodbyes to your loved one.
Thankyou Emma for your genuine kindness. And thankyou to everyone there that helped to make our loved one look the best he could be and making it a truly special day for our goodbyes X

This was a particuarly tragic death and we needed a lot of handholding during the process. Bill, Emma & Yvonne plus the whole of the rest of their team were wonderful in every way possible - there was nothing else they could have possibly done for us. They were kind, gentle and so helpful about everything and went out of their way to fit in with us. They were there for us in every way possible and we will be eternally grateful to them.
