About Us

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.

    Nick was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. There was a very long delay due to the covid restrictions between my mothers funeral and us actually being able to travel to collect her ashes. Nick was accommodating, sincere and always available - a true gent! A highly professional company. Thank you.
