Funeral service venues

We have 143 funeral service venues at funeral homes across the UK where you can hold a funeral, a memorial service or a celebration of life.

Our funeral service venues are calm, nicely decorated private spaces where you can hold a funeral service. Our funeral arrangers will work with you to arrange the service, just as they would if you were holding it at a crematorium or place of worship.

When you hold a funeral at one of our venues, there is no time pressure. We won’t rush you. We offer everyone a 2-hour slot, but if you need longer, we'll do our best to accommodate where possible.

Venues of all sizes

The size of our service venues does vary across the country. Some are smaller, intimate spaces with room for up to 20 people comfortably. This could be perfect for smaller funerals. Some of our bigger venues can seat up to 150 people. Speak to your funeral arranger to find out if there is a suitable venue near you.

Add personal touches

When you choose to hold a service at one of our funeral service venues, you can arrange the space to suit you. You can bring flowers and pictures to decorate the venue. The service can be officiated by a celebrant or a religious leader. Or you can hold a service led by family members. Ask your funeral arranger what’s possible at your arrangement meeting.
