Carl, Jo and team made us feel as at ease as anyone can for the funeral of a very close family member. The service they gave was personal and perfectly judged. Nothing to improve. Nick Warboys

If there were more stars I would rate the care that the funeral company Hadaway and Denton gave ten stars! Carl and Joanna went above and beyond with their care and compassion to make a very difficult time as painless as possible and nothing was impossible. Their attention to detail is unbelievable and I should know as I am Verger at our local village church and have been in contact with many funeral companies.

From the first contact right through to the end of the service, Jo and Carl were the most compassionate and professional couple you would want to help you through. Nothing was too much trouble even within covid19 restrictions.

About Us
Hadaway & Denton Independent Funeral Directors is a family firm, which opened in Ashford, Kent to offer dignified care while striving for the highest levels of service. The caring team is focused on maintaining clear and transparent pricing and offering diversity and creativity.
Carl Hadaway and Joanna Denton have served the community of Ashford for years, upholding the highest levels of service and tradition. Carl was head-hunted by Earl & Co Funeral Directors in Ashford, Kent and after training as a Funeral Director soon became the Manager of the local firm. Carl believes in the value of independent funeral directors and when this local firm changed hands to a corporate company Carl moved onto the family firm ‘Dilnot Smith & Son’ before founding Hadaway & Denton. Joanna worked for 20 years as a music teacher, committed to caring for children and sharing her passion as a musician. She now uses this care and passion to serve families in the funeral business.
The Ashford funeral home has a chapel which offers a peaceful environment for families to visit their loved one. The premises were renovated in 2018 to ensure that they are family-friendly and comfortable. The funeral home includes a round table for family meetings and a children's corner. There is parking on site, and the front of the property is always kept clear for visiting families.
