Our services in the light of the COVID-19 virus (Coronavirus)
This continues to be a difficult time for us all. We appreciate that you may be unsure about arranging a funeral or understanding what is allowed if a loved one has passed away, and we would like to assure you that we are here to help. We are aware of the rules and regulations regarding funerals including: • the number of people who can attend a funeral • the safe management of the funeral venue • rules for holding a wake or other commemorative event Our staff are trained in the procedures necessary to restrict the virus as much as possible. Be assured that the safety of both mourners and of our staff is our highest priority. It is also important to us that the bereaved are treated with sensitivity, dignity and respect. We indicate below briefly what the current rules are, and you may care to read them to understand the requirements. We ask that you consult us as we can advise exactly what is allowed for your needs.Attendance at a funeral
The regulations and guidance are from 21 June 2021. There is no longer a fixed maximum number of attendees at a funeral. The number of people who can attend is now based on the safe number of people that the chosen venue can accommodate bearing in mind the requirement of social distancing. This is the total number of people, including our staff. For any venue, we can advise precisely what is permissable. Anyone who has recently tested positive or who has any symptoms of the virus, or anyone who is supposed to be self- isolating should not attend. If you are not sure of the symptoms, this link may help.Attendance at a wake or other commemorative event
For any commemorative event there is now no fixed maximum number of attendees. However, again, this number depends on the chosen venue and how many people they can accommodate safely. If you have somewhere in mind, we should be able to advise.External link
This is a link to the official government information. It gives clear information on who can and cannot attend, travelling to funerals and so on. The rules and guidelines on what is permissable at funerals will change as the virus continues and more people are vaccinated. For this reason, we ask that you contact us directly for the latest advice and guidance in our area, and to discuss any issues.
