Andrew Richards was born and raised in Newquay, and his connection to the community has shaped both his life and his career. He began working in funeral directing at just 16 years old, guided by the values of care, respect, and professionalism instilled by his grandfather & father. For many years, Andrew proudly served local families through the well-known family business, A C Richards & Son. In 2023, Andrew rebranded the business to Andrew Richards Funeral Services, marking a new chapter while preserving the trusted heritage and compassionate service that families have relied upon for generations. Andrew’s wife, Karen, plays an active and valued role in the day-to-day care of families and the smooth running of the service. Together, Andrew and Karen bring warmth, sincerity, and dedication to every aspect of their work. Here for Our Community
