Yes, our team at H C Grimstead on Shepherds Lane covers a wide area across this part of Buckinghamshire, including Chalfont, Amersham, Beaconsfield, High Wycombe, and Slough. Whether you are close to us or a little further out, we will come to you and make sure your family receives the same level of care wherever you are based.
You do not need to have everything figured out straight away, and our team at H C Grimstead is here around the clock to help you take things one step at a time. When you are ready, we can come to wherever your loved one has died, whether that is at home, in a hospital near High Wycombe, or elsewhere, and bring them into our care on Shepherds Lane while we arrange a time to sit down with you properly.
We have been caring for families in Beaconsfield and the surrounding area since 1927, and over that time we have helped arrange funerals reflecting a wide range of beliefs, from traditional religious services held in local churches to entirely non-religious celebrations of a life. Whatever matters most to you and your family, our team will listen carefully and make sure the service feels personal and true to the person who has died.
We work with three local crematoriums, Chilterns Crematorium, GreenAcres Chiltern Park, and Breakspear Crematorium, and we will help you choose the one that feels right for your family. On the day, our team will travel with your loved one and guide you through everything, from the arrival of the procession to the service itself, so you can focus entirely on being together as a family.
Our funeral home on Shepherds Lane is fully accessible, with a ground floor arrangement room, wheelchair access throughout, and an accessible toilet, so every member of your family can be present and comfortable during the arrangement meeting. We have on-site parking for two cars and unrestricted street parking nearby, which means getting to us from Amersham or Slough should be straightforward, and our arrangement room comfortably seats four to five people so the whole family can be involved.
