Understanding those choices starts with a conversation.

Look out for our leaflet this September 📮

At Cowburn Funeral Service, we know that planning ahead can help reduce uncertainty and may mean there are fewer decisions for others to make at an already difficult time.

That’s why we’ll soon be delivering our new funeral planning leaflet to homes across Westhoughton and the surrounding area.

Inside, you’ll find information about Golden Charter funeral plans available through Cowburn Funeral Service. From a traditional funeral to a simple, local direct cremation, our caring and experienced team can explain the choices and help you plan a send-off that reflects your wishes.

There’s no pressure or obligation. We’ll simply give you the time and straightforward information you need to consider the options available.

If you have any questions, please call us on 01942 813105 or contact us here:
https://www.cowburnfunerals.co.uk/contact

You’re also very welcome to visit us at:
Cowburn Funeral Service, 1 King Street, Westhoughton, BL5 3AX

If it’s more convenient, we can arrange to visit you at home.

We appreciate that information about funeral planning can sometimes arrive at a difficult time. If that is the case, please accept our sincere apologies.

We would like to warmly introduce everyone to the team here at Cowburn Funeral Service, a picture that captures both the history and the future of our team 🤍

This photograph brings together something we’re incredibly proud of: decades of experience, dedication and care, alongside the newest members of our team providing fresh perspectives.

Some of these faces have been part of our funeral home for many, many years, with a wealth of knowledge and experience that is quite simply invaluable. Alongside them are colleagues who are beginning their own journey with us and already becoming an important part of our team.

Different journeys, different experiences, but one shared commitment: to provide families with the care, compassion and professionalism they deserve.

Here’s to the people who have helped shape our team, and to those who are now helping to shape its future. 🤍

Cowburn Funerals, proudly serving the community of Westhoughton since 1905.
