Compassionate Funeral Services in Barnet
At Newrest Funerals, we provide compassionate and personalised funeral services for families across Barnet, a borough in Greater London renowned for its leafy suburbs, vibrant Jewish and Hindu communities, and landmarks like the RAF Museum and Hampstead Heath extension. Whether you’re arranging a sudden bereavement or planning ahead, our team is here to support you with dignity and care.
A Personal Approach to Funeral Care in Barnet
Barnet’s blend of historic villages like Finchley and modern neighbourhoods such as Edgware calls for funeral services that respect both tradition and individuality. Our direct cremation option, starting from £895, offers a simple, unattended service at Hendon Crematorium, with ashes returned in an eco-friendly urn. Families often pair this with a memorial at local gems like Dollis Valley Greenwalk or Bethune Park, reflecting their loved one’s connection to Barnet’s green spaces.
For those preferring burial, our direct burial service provides a respectful interment at New Southgate Cemetery or St Pancras and Islington Cemetery, avoiding embalming costs. Many families in areas like Mill Hill or Totteridge later host celebrations of life at community hubs such as ArtsDepot or Chipping Barnet’s Tudor Hall.
Barnet’s diverse cultural fabric is reflected in our faith-based services. We arrange Jewish funerals with kosher-certified coffins and Shiva coordination, Hindu ceremonies with Vedic rituals, or Christian burials led by local clergy at St John the Baptist Church or Finchley Reform Synagogue.

Supporting Barnet Families
As part of Greater London, Barnet benefits from our extensive network of local partners, including florists in High Barnet and memorial stonemasons in East Finchley. We navigate logistical challenges unique to the borough, such as coordinating processions along the A1 or securing permits for graveside services in protected heritage sites like Church Farmhouse Museum.
Our pre-paid funeral plans are popular with residents in areas like Golders Green and Whetstone, offering peace of mind amid rising costs in one of London’s most sought-after boroughs.
Why Families Trust Us
Why Families in Barnet Trust Us
Newrest Funerals combines affordability with heartfelt service. Recent testimonials highlight our sensitivity to Barnet’s multicultural needs:
“After my father’s passing, Newrest arranged a traditional Jewish funeral with a Chevra Kadisha. They sourced a plain pine coffin and even helped organise the minyan. Their respect for our customs was unmatched.”
