Unfortunately, one of our funeral fleet vehicles was damaged today while parked outside our Leyland office.

The damage appears to have been caused deliberately, as it is located on the path-side of the vehicle.

We are currently reviewing our CCTV footage. If anyone witnessed anything or has any information that may help, we would be grateful if you could contact us directly.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

🌿 Every Life Is Unique🌿
🌿Every Farewell Should Be Too 🌿

At N & K Harvey Funerals, we believe a funeral should reflect the person it honours — their story, their passions, their life.

From music choices and personal tributes to bespoke arrangements and meaningful details, we work closely with families to create funerals that feel right — not rushed, not generic, but truly personal.

Whether you’re celebrating a life well lived or saying goodbye in a quiet, simple way, we’re here to help you honour your loved one in a way that feels authentic and heartfelt. 💛

📞 Available 24/7 for advice, guidance, or simply a listening ear.

Because no two lives are the same — and no farewell should be either.

Many families are surprised to learn that local crematorium fees can differ significantly depending on the location and the day of the week.

Here is a snapshot of current local cremation fees:
🔸Charnock Richard Crematorium
£1,340 (Monday–Wednesday)
£1,440 (Thursday–Friday)

🔸Preston Crematorium — £933

🔸Pleasington Crematorium — £1,050

🔸West Lancashire Crematorium (Burscough)
£1,125 (Monday–Wednesday)
£1,225 (Thursday–Friday)

🔸Overdale Crematorium — £1,090

🔸Wigan Crematorium — £896

**Some crematoriums offer a reduced-fee service earlier in the day. **

💬 A difference of over £500 between venues can have a real impact on funeral costs — and on families at an already difficult time.

At N & K Harvey Funerals, we believe in full transparency and helping families make informed choices. We are always happy to discuss options and guide you through what is available locally.

If you’d like to talk through your choices, please don’t hesitate to contact us 🤍
