What does a Dignity funeral director do?

We are sometimes asked what a funeral director does, or, alternatively, how a day at a funeral directors unfolds.
Support the family ...
Here at Wormalds Funeral Directors, every day is different. One of our funeral directors remains on call outside of normal opening hours, meaning that no matter what time of day a loved one passes, someone is on hand to collect the deceased and begin offering support.

Although care for the departed is integral to our role as funeral directors, we also understand the importance of providing care and support to the family members left behind. We offer reassurance and help to ease some of the burden that arises following the loss of a loved one. Families will have important choices to make regarding funeral arrangements, and our funeral directors are there to support them in reaching those decisions with confidence.
Supporting family members at a funeral service
To make sure a funeral service celebrates and reflects the life of the person who has passed, our funeral directors take the time to understand who they were and what they meant to their loved ones. This is all part of the service Wormalds Funeral Directors provides to the Horsforth community it is proud to serve.

Further to the support our funeral directors give the family, they offer help and guidance on the administrative side of bereavement. This includes advising on the paperwork that is required, along with ensuring it is completed correctly and in a timely manner.

The care we offer is universal, with every person receiving the same level of dignity, respect and compassion as part of our 'care of the deceased' process.

Our teams of funeral arrangers, embalmers and operatives are dedicated to looking after those who have passed away in accordance with their family's wishes. They always perform their duties to the highest standards, from the moment of collection to the funeral service and final goodbye.

Wormalds Funeral Directors is thankful to the community in Horsforth for allowing us to support them during such difficult times. That is why it's so important for us to express our gratitude.
Our work takes us to local care homes, where we advise on caring for the deceased and the bereaved. We also visit places of worship to help train officiants in funeral procedure best practices. Wherever our duties take us, being a part of Dignity means our funeral directors are always ready to assist and give something back.
