Yes, our team on Sturry Road is here for families across Hersden, as well as Canterbury, Bridge, Sturry, and Aylesham. Wherever you are in the area, we will come to you and make sure your family receives the same careful, personal support from the very beginning. Distance is never a barrier to the care we provide.
We are experienced in arranging funerals across a range of faiths and traditions, and Canterbury has a wonderful array of historic churches we can work with, including St Thomas of Canterbury, St Dunstan's, and St Nicholas. Whether your family's needs are rooted in a particular religion, a secular outlook, or a blend of both, our team will listen carefully and shape a service that feels true to the person who died. Nothing is too bespoke, we are here to reflect a life as it was actually lived.
Our funeral home on Sturry Road has a chapel of rest where your family can visit and spend quiet, private time with the person who died, at a pace that suits you. We are fully wheelchair accessible and have on-site parking, so visiting is straightforward for everyone in the family regardless of mobility or how they are travelling. Our team will always make sure the space is prepared thoughtfully before you arrive, and you are welcome to visit as many times as you need.
We are available any time, day or night, so please do not hesitate to call us as soon as you feel ready, there is no need to wait until morning. Once you reach out, our team can arrange to collect your loved one with care and bring them to our funeral home on Sturry Road, where they will be looked after until all arrangements are in place. We will also guide you gently through the paperwork, including the medical certificate and death registration, so you are never left wondering what needs to happen next.
We work closely with Barham Crematorium and Herne Bay Crematorium, and our team will help you decide which feels right for your family. On the day, we take care of every detail, from the moment we leave Sturry Road to the committal itself, so that you can focus entirely on being present with those who matter most. We will walk you through the order of service, music, and any readings beforehand, so nothing feels uncertain or rushed.
