Choosing a coffin is often one of the hardest aspects of arranging a funeral. For some families it is the most difficult, visual and emotional element associated with discussing the funeral arrangements. We recognise this and will offer as much help as possible in a caring and compassionate manner. Remember, this is a natural part of the grieving process.
Planning your loved one’s last journey is important and it is natural to want their last journey to be special. For many people, the funeral cortege is one of the most poignant aspects of the funeral. We are proud to provide a beautiful fleet of environmentally concious, black hearses and limousines for your loved one's final journey in the funeral cortege.
When a loved one, friend or colleague passes, flowers can be an important part of the grieving process. Our talented florists can create the perfect arrangement for you, whether it be a traditional wreath or something more unusual. We will expertly guide you with compassion, helping you choose the right flowers to express your sympathy and thoughts.

This week is Baby Loss Awareness Week, a time for families and communities to come together and remember the precious babies that lit our lives for such a short time. Now in its 22nd year, this annual event provides a safe and supportive space for anyone touched by pregnancy and baby loss, to share their experiences and know they are not alone. Pregnancy and baby loss is a deeply personal experience, and for many, it can feel isolating. By breaking the silence and encouraging open conversations, we hope to offer comfort and a sense of togetherness to those who need it.
With the darker mornings, colder days and longer nights fast approaching, those who are a bereaved may find this time of year a particularly challenging time, both mentally and emotionally. Many will be struggling, reminiscing about times gone by, and remembering those that are no longer with them. Those feelings are very personal and can be hard to deal with. However you choose to cope with that grief, please remember that our team, as well as specialist counsellors, are always here to help you.
As your trusted local funeral director, we feel it's important that families are fully aware of what an unattended direct cremation entails. A standalone direct cremation, as you might see advertised on television or in press, involves no service for family and friends. It is simply the collection of your loved one, followed by their cremation, and the return of their ashes. In some situations this option can be a positive choice, saving unnecessary cost and allowing mourners to arrange their own tribute. But for some, it does deny an opportunity to say a final goodbye, which often gives closure.
We take full responsibility when dealing with obituary notices, liaising with you, family members and the press to publish a tribute that is accurate, announcing the death of your loved one and their funeral details. For information about upcoming funerals and all current notices please see our dedicated funeral notices page.
With a proud sixty year history, our funeral directors will care for your loved one as if they were our own, our family caring for yours. Cliff Bradley & Sons is an appointed representative of Golden Charter Limited trading as Golden Charter Funeral Plans, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN:965279).
