About Us

Richard Bird Funeral Services is an independent family owned funeral service providing high level personal and professional care.

Richard is available 24 hours a day to discuss any free no obligation advice on funerals.

On average 25% cheaper than the
co-op.

We can add more personal touches such as a horse drawn carriage, bagpiper, motorcycle hearse, doves and memorial jewellery, balloons, order of service and remembrance ribbons.

Feel free to contact Richard regarding costs of a funeral and third party costs.

We will guide and help you every step of the way during this sad and difficult time.

We are members of the National society of allied and independent funeral directors (Saif) and get regular inspections to uphold the highest of standards in the funeral industry.

I would like to take this opportunity to offer my sincere condolences to you and your family if you have recently lost a loved one.

Warmest Regards

Richard Bird Director
