Serving your family wherever you are in South Shileds

We are Johnson Family Funeral Directors, serving families from our funeral homes in Tyne & Wear. We understand that life with those you love is deeply personal, so it is a privilege to honour the final wishes of families as they say farewell to their loved ones. Our community is very special to us, and we are proud to have such close ties with many places of worship, ministers and local businesses in Tyne & Wear.

Arranging a funeral

Your Family First

At Johnson Family Funeral Directors we are dedicated to providing your loved one with a meaningful celebration of life.

We cater for funerals of all faiths and cultures, burial and cremation services, and non-religious funerals. If an alternative funeral is most fitting, then we can arrange for bespoke services, such as woodland burials, green funerals and burials at sea. We are also here to give you careful guidance wherever it is needed, such as help with what to do when someone dies, legal advice, and emotional support. Your wellbeing is paramount to us, and we will do everything we can to make a difficult time a little easier for you.

Our Services

Explore our funeral packages below, so we can arrange the funeral you have in mind for your loved one.   If you’re looking for a traditional or contemporary funeral with a service, you should consider our Attended Funeral. If you want us to arrange a simple cremation without mourners present, our Unattended Funeral may better suit your needs.
