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.

Testimonials

Thank you so much for making Brian’s funeral so special, he would have loved it. I cannot thank you enough for all your care and compassion through a very difficult time.

Janet C - Sept 2016

To everyone at Penrose,

We would like to thank you for your professional and friendly manner which was so evident before and on the day of our husband and father Martin Hope’s funeral on June 7th. Hoping we don’t need your services for a while yet, but when we do we would certainly come back to you. Your kindness and sympathy is deeply appreciated and will always be remembered.

Thank you so much for the care and kindness you showed with the planning of Mick’s funeral. We knew he was in good hands and appreciated the respect that was given to him.

Kindest regards

Dear Nathan, Jeremy and everyone and Penrose,

Thank you so much for looking after my son – Thomas Street – while he was in your care. The past few weeks have been so distressing but you made organising the funeral so much easier than I thought it would be.

I am especially grateful for the visits that you organised for me, especially the final one. I am also very grateful to Jeremy for your kind words on the day of the service.

I am so pleased that we chose to bring Tom to you. You have made my darkest times a little brighter.
