What does a Dignity funeral director do?
Our funeral directors have a duty of care to reassure families and help ease their burden, which is why time and attention is devoted to those who are grieving, as well as those who have passed away. Families experiencing the loss of a loved one will have choices to make regarding the funeral, and we are here to give them the confidence they need to reach those decisions.
As part of the support our funeral directors offer to every family dealing with the loss of a loved one, they also help with the administrative side of bereavement, including guidance on what paperwork is required and advice to ensure it is completed correctly.
To ensure a loved one is looked after with the best quality of care, our teams of funeral arrangers, embalmers and operatives always perform their duties to the highest standards, from the moment we bring them into our care through to the funeral service and final goodbye.
Whether that's through working with local care homes, training local clergy in funeral procedure, or advising other public bodies on how to support bereaved families, being a part of Dignity means our funeral directors are always ready to give something back to the local community.
