Funeral Services in Cornwall

Pendle Funeral Services is a well-established family business owned by Tony and Dee Richards, serving all areas. We offer a friendly, but professional and dignified service.

The First Funeral Home is situated on the Penzance Road at St Johns, Helston on The Lizard Peninsula. Our private chapel of rest and offices are set amongst trees in very tranquil surroundings. The Firs is easily accessible with private parking, wheelchair access and disabled facilities.

Pendle Funeral Services offer a 24-hour on call service, along with the office being open throughout the day to provide advice and support. Funeral Arrangements can be made in the comfort of your own home, or in our office at The Firs. Our staff include lady funeral directors and experienced bearers. Professional, sensitive advice and assistance is available at all times.

All faiths and beliefs are encompassed. Funerals are individually arranged to suit the personal requirements of each family and services can be conducted, not only in churches and crematoria, but also in the privacy of your own home, our chapel of rest at The Firs, woodland burial grounds or on suitable private land.

We are very aware of the ecological needs of our clients and can provide all available bio-degradable and sustainable coffins, ie bamboo, wicker, seagrass and willow and woollen coffins in addition to the range of solid wood or veneered, with the more recent addition of custom designed picture coffins.

Our fleet of vehicles include air-conditioned limousines for extra comfort. A horse-drawn hearse can be made available, creating a more traditional air.

Pre-paid Funeral Plans

Amongst the many additional services available, Pendle’s are able to offer Pre-Paid Funeral Plans in association with various funeral planning companies to suit all budgets and offer positive advice to all our clients.
