A J Brooke Funeral Directors

21/05/2026

We don’t usually post photos of us whilst conducting a funeral service but last week I lead a service where the family had employed the service’s of a professional photographer to capture the day for them , the photographer very kindly sent me this photo of me awaiting the arrival of the hearse so I thought I’d share it.
It’s always a great honour to be entrusted withsomeone’s funeral service and I wear this uniform with pride.

I’m extremely proud to announce that I have been nominated for Funeral Director of the Year 2026 by The AGFD Good Funeral Awards.
A huge thank you to everyone that took the time to nominate me and to my amazing team of staff without whom I couldn’t operate. 💗

You’ve probably seen the TV adverts for a well-known national company offering “simple” cremation services. It all sounds so easy and straight forward but here’s what many people don’t realise…

These companies aren’t funeral directors. They’re crematoriums and they often use facilities that could be many miles away from where your loved one lived. That personal, local touch, simply isn’t there.

🕊 At your local independent funeral director, you and your family receive genuine care, compassion, and support from real people not a remote call centre or courier service.

🕊Our direct cremations are £1550 which includes a simple coffin and the cremation fee. You can be reassured that your loved one will be cared for locally ,dressed and conveyed to the crematorium in our hearse and shoulder carried into chapel.

Please Call us on 01344 883322 for more information.
