You can call our Kingston funeral home at any time, day or night, and our team will be ready to help you, including bringing your loved one into our care from wherever they have died. Once that immediate step is taken, we can sit with you to talk through paperwork, next steps, and timelines at a pace that feels right for your family.
Yes, our team is here for families across New Malden, as well as Kingston, Wimbledon, Richmond, and the surrounding areas. Wherever you are calling from, we will come to you and make sure your family receives the same level of care and support from the very beginning.
Our chapel of rest on Kings Road offers a quiet, private space where you and your family can visit and spend time with the person who died in peaceful, comfortable surroundings. We also have on-site parking and full wheelchair access, so we have made sure the space is welcoming and easy to reach for everyone who needs to visit us.
We are experienced in arranging funerals across a wide range of traditions, and we have strong working relationships with local venues including St Agatha's, St Paul's, and Kingston United Reform Church for those who want a faith-based service. For families who prefer something non-religious or more personal, we will work with you to create a ceremony that feels completely true to the person who died.
We work closely with Kingston Crematorium, Mortlake, North East Surrey, and Putney Vale Crematorium, so your family has a real choice when it comes to planning the service. On the day itself, our team will be with you throughout, guiding you gently through each moment so you can focus entirely on saying goodbye to the person who died.
