Questions and answers

We arrange services at Overdale, Howe Bridge and East Lancashire Crematorium, depending on what works best for your family. Each crematorium has its own character and facilities, and we'll talk you through the options including service times, how long you'll have, and what happens on the day. Our team will coordinate everything directly with the crematorium, so you can focus on being with family and friends.

Yes, our team is here 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Whenever you need us, whether it's the middle of the night, a weekend, or a bank holiday, you can call and speak to someone who'll listen, guide you through what needs to happen next, and take care of everything with kindness and professionalism.

We arrange services across all faiths and beliefs, working regularly with Church of England, Catholic and Methodist communities in the area. Whether you'd like a traditional religious service, a humanist ceremony, or something more personal and non-religious, we'll help you create a funeral that reflects what mattered to your loved one. We also have our own service venue here at the funeral home if you prefer to hold the ceremony with us rather than at a church or crematorium.

We serve families throughout Halliwell, Astley Bridge and Tongue Moor, as well as the wider Relphs area. Our team has been part of this community since 1954, so we know the local churches, crematoriums and venues well. Whether your family lives nearby or you're arranging a funeral for someone who called this area home, we're here to help with every detail.

Yes, we have our own service venue here on Blackburn Road where you can hold the funeral ceremony. This gives families a more intimate alternative to a church or crematorium, and means everything can take place under one roof if that feels right for you. Many families appreciate having the flexibility to hold the service here, especially when they want a smaller, more personal gathering before heading to Overdale or one of the other crematoriums we work with.
