Yes, our team at David Bakers on the High Street covers Welford-on-Avon and the surrounding villages, as well as a wide area taking in Stratford-upon-Avon, Alcester, Bidford-on-Avon, Redditch, Birmingham and across Warwickshire. Wherever you are in the area, we can come to you and guide your family through every step of the arrangements.
Our team at David Bakers is available around the clock, so you can call us at any hour and we will be with you as soon as possible, whether your family is in Stratford-upon-Avon, Bidford-on-Avon or anywhere across the wider area. Once we have brought your loved one into our care, we can sit down with you in our arrangement room on the High Street and take you through the paperwork and next steps at whatever pace feels right for your family.
At David Bakers we have experience supporting families from a wide range of faiths and backgrounds, including Catholic, Church of England, Humanist and Travelling community funerals, and we treat every family's traditions and wishes with the greatest respect. Whether you need a service that follows a specific religious rite or one that reflects a more personal set of beliefs, we will work closely with you to make sure the day truly honours the person who died.
We work with The Vale crematorium in Redditch and Oakleywood crematorium, and we will talk your family through both options so you can choose the one that feels right. On the day, our team will lead the procession to the crematorium, and we stay with you throughout to make sure everything runs smoothly and with the care your loved one deserves.
We have two on-site parking spaces and you can also park outside on the High Street free of charge, with a free nearby car park available too, so getting to us from Alcester or Redditch should not be a concern. Our funeral home is fully wheelchair accessible, we have a ground floor arrangement room and an accessible toilet, so everyone in your family is welcome and comfortable when you come in to make arrangements.
