Nick Jago and David Michael have now been entrusted looking after the funeral home and attending to the funeral needs of the local community. They are both highly experienced and fully embedded in the local community, having both grown up and worked in the local area.

In 1989 the Purpose-built Chapel of Rest was built, and in 2018 the funeral home was completely refurbished to meet the needs of a modern funeral home. The home is fully equipped with a comfortable family arranging room and a peaceful chapel of rest, where you and your family can visit your loved one and say your final goodbyes.

    When my mum passed away it was very sad for everyone. Nick and David from Wedlakes funeral home were fantastic.
    They looked after mum with so much care and dignity.
    As a family we didn't really know what to do but Nick and David guided us through the process and helped us plan the funeral.

    Throughout the funeral they were empathetic, professional and made sure everything went smoothly.

    Nick and David are so approachable and they instantly put you at ease at such a difficult time.
    I would recommend them 100%.

  • 5 Sarah Woods 7th Feb 2024

    Nick was very sympathetic, he came to our house and wasn’t pushy. He advised when necessary and gave recommendations (we took some but not all, due to locality). Kept in the loop at all times. One of the recommendations was his business partner David who was the celebrant which who again was very professional and making sure everything was exactly I wished to give dad the best send off he deserved. Nick and David took good care of dad and let me visit when I wanted, we can’t fault them. They go the extra mile to help you out and taking all the stress off at a bad time. Thank you again for everything you’ve done.
