The hardest goodbye i ever had to deal with, i was lost i didn't know what to do and where to go all i wanted was to give Ian a decent goodbye. I am forever grateful for your guidance and support in helping me achieve this. Thank you.

We had no hesitation in choosing Wedlake Funeral Homes as we'd attended several sad occasions where they officiated. It was also Aaron's choice for the self same reason. It's only when it becomes much more personal you appreciate how professional, efficient, understanding, caring and empathetic both Nick & David are. They were on call whenever we had any sort of query, were genuine in their responses and made sure absolutely everything was as we all wished. The inclusion of Matthew, Lacy, Tia and Sonny were really appreciated. The added touches of the Star Wars Themed Order of Service and the framed photograph of Aaron, one not only for us but Matthew & Family giving that little bit extra, taking that extra step - truly unforgettable..

David Bicknell 25th May 2023

Very professional and efficient service, although at the same time very personal, understanding and caring. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble during what is of necessity a difficult time. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Wedlake Funeral Services to anyone.

About Us

Originally established in 1921 Wedlake Funeral Home (Nick Jago and David Michael Funeral Directors) is a funeral directors in St Austell, Cornwall. From their modern funeral home in St Austell, they offer funeral services to all of Cornwall.

In 1921 Fitzroy Wedlake set up his funeral business in Higher Bugle, St Austell. It was later taken over by Mr Wedlake’s Son Geoff, who in turn handed the business over to his sons, Alan and Roderick. Alan looked after the funeral side of the business but sadly died young so his younger brother Roderick took over the business.

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.

Each funeral will be unique and meet the wishes of you, your loved one and your family. Nick and David are keen that a dignified funeral c​an also be an affordable one. They can arrange any type of service, from a traditional religious ceremony, to a modern celebration of life.

  • 5 Sarah Penwarden 24th May 2023

    The service we received from Nick Jago was second to none. We were kept fully informed at each stage of the arrangements, at a very difficult time for the family.
    Any questions were answered sensitively and promptly - either by phone or email.
    This was the second time our family has used Wedlake Funeral Home and would certainly use them again in the future.

  • 5 Susan Warren 24th May 2023

    David and Nick are caring, professional and supportive.  They organised my dads funeral and now, sadly my mums, they treat you with empathy and compassion and make a very difficult time bearable.

  • 5 Maxine Fuller 24th May 2023

    Nick was very kind, respectful and thoughtful. Had patience and no rush.

  • 5 Chris Hancock 24th May 2023

    I felt myself and my family were made to feel very comfortable during the whole process. It was a traumatic time for us because of the unexpected nature of events. We were taken through it with patience and understanding at all times, and of course, we are being help further by our request to have my wife's ashes interned at Nanpean where all out joint family's remains are. Thank you all for your help.
