Payments arrangements:
Once we agree a final price, a deposit needs to be paid usually 40% of total bill. The rest will have to be paid 2 days before the funeral date, unless an agreement has been put in place.
If treding gently on the planet is a priority to you then natural burial is the greenest choice that is available right now this is where someone is buried in green space, such as a meadow or woodland, using fully bio degradable materials there are also other ways to help make a funeral more eco friendly such as electrical vehicle, bio degradable urns and you can pick a coffin made of a locally grown sustainable material like Summerset Willow or recycled cardboard.
For many, the crematorium is the easiest place to hold a funeral because it is set up for that purpose. That said, it may not be the most meaningful place so you should always feel free to consider other options.

would recommend white rose as I think they are the best at what they do nothing is too much trouble kind caring understanding and very professional and how they help even after the funeral with mental health issues etc amazing
Chris West
AJ was compassionate and professional in all my dealings with him, handling all aspects of the funeral in accordance with our wishes and responding promptly to any queries
.
He arranged a viewing for the family on a Sunday afternoon, printed the orders of service - very good quality paper

I have led the services of over twenty funerals that have been undertaken by White Rose and fully endorse their care and dignified service. On one occasion I had the honour of preparing the body of a former student of mine for his funeral, and observed first-hand the dignity shown by White Rose.
I have known the family for many years - I was Ahmed's teacher soon after he arrived from Palestine as a young boy - and I have been encouraged to see him establish this service to families in their hour of need. When my time comes I'm glad my arrangements will be in good hands.
