A Compassionate Farewell

When a loved one chooses direct cremation, it can leave family and friends with the sadness of not having the opportunity to say a "proper goodbye."

 

We understand the importance of creating a meaningful and personal farewell, and we're here to offer a solution that respects both your loved one's wishes for a direct cremation and the need for a final, intimate tribute.

In our small Chapel of Rest, we invite up to 6 people to gather for a peaceful, heartfelt remembrance service by your loved one's coffin.

 

For larger groups, we can arrange multiple smaller services in succession, ensuring everyone can pay their respects.

Options for a Personalised Farewell

Chapel of Rest Hire – £250
Gather up to six people in our tranquil Chapel of Rest for a private, intimate service. This option includes:

  • A quiet and peaceful space by your loved one’s coffin.

  • The next of kin leading the tribute, delivering a eulogy, and organising music.

  • Dim lighting, candles, or other personal touches to create a serene atmosphere.


Short Funeral Service – Additional £125
Let our experienced funeral director conduct a short service, ensuring your farewell runs smoothly. This option includes:

  • The next of kin’s written eulogy.

  • Music of your choice, sourced and played by us on our premium Bose® sound system for an exceptional audio experience.

 

Full-Length Funeral Service – Additional £250
Create a deeper, more personal tribute with a celebrant-led service, including:

  • A bespoke, professionally written eulogy, crafted after the celebrant speaks with the next of kin to capture your loved one’s life story.

  • Tailored music and meaningful touches, such as prayers, poems, or readings.

  • A heartfelt and memorable farewell that reflects your loved one’s legacy.

“Rounce were our Mum’s chosen funeral directors and we couldn’t have been more impressed with their care of us and of her. Their compassion, open communication and encouragement with our personal funeral touches were significant and have left a positive memory on what is undoubtedly the worst time in your life. Well done, thank you, and may we all always be blowing bubbles ❤️”
