A Truly Independent Family Business

Penrose Funerals Ltd is run by myself and my son Nathan. We are committed to the reality that affordability need not come at the cost of professionalism or care. Our dedication to remaining independent means we can continue to offer a flexible, personal service to our clients and to be a gentle, guiding hand through a difficult time. Our small and dedicated team, along with Nathan and myself, will be there for you from start to finish…and beyond.

Caring for our staff

We believe that caring for our clients starts with caring for our staff. We do not believe in zero hour contracts or paying minimum wage. We do set high standards, but we find that because our staff feel involved, listened to and supported it is they who are also constantly pushing to improve the service we offer. We are convinced that this corporate culture of openness and support is what enables us to provide an exceptionally caring and supportive service for bereaved families and friends.

Tracey and Family - May 2019

A very professional family run business who were very understanding and kind and nothing was too much trouble. They immediately alleviated any worries and concerns I had and arranged for a lovely celebrant Laura Manvell to conduct the Celebration of Life, who was probably one of the sweetest ladies on this earth I have ever met.

Julie Adkins - February 2024

Just to say thank you for looking after our Dad. I don’t know how you do your jobs, but I just want to say you do it so professionally and with so much care.

Thank you for everything

Marie Noble and family - February 2023

Nathan,

I just wanted to say a sincere thank you to you and everyone at Penrose for the professionalism, care and support you showed throughout Dad’s funeral arrangements.

Everything yesterday was handled so calmly and respectfully, and despite the slight delay at the start, the service still came together with some improvised cuts . I’m very grateful for all the help you gave us in making sure everything was organised properly.

Many thanks again for everything.

George - October 2026

Dear Jeremy, Nathan and Team,

Saying ‘thank you’ doesn’t begin to express how grateful I am for all that you have done for me and for my family.

I know it’s some time now but I would just like to tell you now much your support and kindness meant to me in my darkest hour of my life. Thank you to everyone who made things so much better than it could have been. My very best wishes to all concerned in my wife’s funeral.
