Why we are different as an independent
We are the only funeral service in Devon, Cornwall, Somerset & Dorset to have signed the Armed Forces Covenant. Only ten funeral directors in the entire UK have signed and all of them are independents.
We believe that supporting those who have served their country is the biggest thank you we can give.
Working alongside the Royal British Legion and Torbay Veterans we believe we can really make a difference to veterans, serving personnel and their families.
