Care from our own team
The same personal care, wherever your family lives
Everyone entrusted to us is cared for locally in our private mortuary in Heathfield. They are not transferred to a distant central facility simply because their family lives elsewhere in East Sussex or West Kent.
Some families prefer to visit us in Heathfield, while others feel more comfortable meeting at home. We can also arrange everything by telephone and online when distance, health, work or family circumstances make that more convenient.
We take the time to explain your choices, answer your questions and help you arrange a funeral that feels right for the person who has died.

Funerals in WadhurstTowns, villages and rural communities
Our work is not limited to the places named above
We also serve Horam, Cross in Hand, Burwash and Robertsbridge, including all the villages and rural communities between the principal areas we cover.
Living outside a large town should not make it more difficult to receive personal funeral care. We can coordinate arrangements with local churches, cemeteries, crematoria, ministers, celebrants and other venues.
If your town or village is not named, please call us. We would much rather have a conversation than leave you wondering whether we can help.
Bringing someone into our care
The immediate steps depend on where the death occurred
When someone dies, you can call us at any time for guidance. Once the necessary immediate medical or official steps have been completed, we can arrange to bring the person who has died into our care.
Our immediate-guidance page explains what happens after a death at home, in hospital, in a care or nursing home, or in unexpected circumstances.
Travelling beyond our usual local area
We will explain any mileage charge before you decide
We serve families throughout East Sussex and West Kent. Journeys outside approximately 30 miles of Heathfield may incur an additional mileage charge, particularly where longer-distance transfers or repeated journeys are required.
We will explain any likely charge before arrangements are confirmed.
