Meet the Team

Paul
Founder & Director
When people first contact us, they're often facing one of the hardest days of their lives. They don't need complicated decisions or sales pitches. They need someone who will listen, guide them with kindness, and quietly take care of everything.
That's why I founded Orchard Funeral Services.
I wanted to create a different kind of funeral company. One built on compassion, honesty and time. A place where families never feel rushed, where every farewell is shaped around the person being remembered, and where nature offers peace and comfort long after the funeral has ended.
Whether you're planning a simple cremation, a traditional service or a natural burial in our beautiful orchard, my team and I are here to support you every step of the way.
We'll explain everything clearly, answer every question honestly, and care for your loved one as if they were part of our own family.
It is a privilege to do this work, and one we never take for granted.
I hope, when the time comes, we can provide you with the reassurance and peace of mind that every family deserves.

James
Director
If you've found yourself here because someone you love has died, I'm truly sorry.
I know this can be an overwhelming time. There are decisions to make, paperwork to deal with, and emotions that are often difficult to put into words. My role is simply to make things a little easier.
For me, arranging a funeral has never been about following a checklist. It's about listening. Every person is unique, and every farewell should reflect the life that was lived.
Whether that's a simple cremation, a traditional service, or a natural burial surrounded by trees and birdsong, my priority is always the same: to help families create something that feels right.
You'll never be rushed, pressured or left wondering what happens next. I'll take the time to answer your questions, explain every option clearly, and guide you through each step with honesty, compassion and care.
It is a privilege to support families at such an important moment in their lives, and one I never take for granted.
When you're ready, myself and the team will be here to help.

Our Transportation


Our Informal/Bariatric Hearse is popular with those who wish to move away from the traditional style of funeral car.

Our Private Ambulance ensures that your loved ones are transported to and from our chapel of rest with care and above all, dignity.
For those who prefer a Traditional Hearse and/or Limousine, we can also meet your requirements.
