What does a Dignity Funeral Director do?
Although care for the departed is a critical feature of the role, of equal importance are those left behind. Funeral Directors have a duty of care to families, reassuring them and providing guidance. Those experiencing loss may feel overwhelmed by decisions they have to make regarding funeral arrangements, which is why we are always there to offer advice through this process.

We also help with the administrative side of bereavement, which includes, but is not limited to, advising on the completion of any necessary forms and ensuring they are returned within a timely manner.

This means that every loved one is cared for according to the wishes of their family, with a team of funeral arrangers, embalmers and operatives performing their duties to the highest standards.

Being a part of Dignity means we are always ready to assist and give something back.
