John Pearce DipFD MBIE and His Dedicated Staff

John Pearce DipFD MBIE has gained valuable experience from over 30 years of serving bereaved families, and has gained key professional qualifications and memberships within the funeral profession.  His knowledge and experience have been passed onto his dedicated staff,  who are committed to bringing this service to you as your local independent funeral director in Swindon. 

Options and Costs

Many funeral directors require ‘upfront’ payments before a funeral takes place.  We do not require a deposit or payment of any kind before the funeral takes place.  This takes away any immediate pressure from you, giving you time and space to organise your affairs whilst making funeral arrangements.  Arrangements can be made in the comfort of your home, at our offices in Groundwell Road or our chapel of rest in Stratton St Margaret.

Upholding the Highest Professional Standards

Our funeral service has been recommended in The Good Funeral Guide, since 2011.  For your added assurance, we are bound by the code of conduct of The National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) and The National Society of Allied & Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF).  We are also members of the The British Institute Of Embalmers.
