We work closely with a number of local churches and can absolutely help coordinate a service at St Paul's Marton, St Kentigern's, St John Vianney's, or Holy Trinity, depending on your family's wishes and faith. Our team will liaise directly with the clergy and venue on your behalf, so you are not left making those calls yourself at an already difficult time.
There is street parking available on the roads close to our Whitegate Drive funeral home, with a number of spaces offering between one and two hours free, which is usually plenty of time for an arrangement meeting. Our ground floor arrangement room means there are no stairs to navigate, and we do have an accessible toilet on-site, though please do be aware that the building is not currently wheelchair accessible — if this affects your family, please let us know when you call and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Yes, our Whitegate funeral home serves families across Staining and the wider Fylde Coast, including Poulton-le-Fylde, Carleton, Bispham, and South Shore. Our team has been caring for families across this part of Lancashire since 1980, so wherever you are in the area, we are here to help you through every step of the arrangements.
When someone dies, our team is available to take your call and begin guiding you straight away — there is no need to face those first hours alone or unsure of what to do next. We can arrange for your loved one to be brought into our care from their home, a hospital, or a care facility in the Blackpool or North Shore area, and we will walk you through the necessary paperwork, including the medical certificate and registration of the death, at a pace that suits you. Nothing will be rushed, and our team at Whitegate Drive will be with you from that very first conversation.
On the day of a cremation service, our team will collect your loved one and bring them to the service venue, whether that is a local church such as Holy Trinity or a crematorium our team regularly works with. The service itself follows whatever format feels right for your family — music, readings, a eulogy, or a period of quiet reflection — and we will guide you through the timing and order of the day so nothing feels rushed or uncertain. Afterwards, we can discuss the options for the ashes with you at whatever pace suits your family.
