Compassionate Funeral Services in London

At Newrest Funerals, we understand that losing a loved one is one of life’s most difficult experiences. Our dedicated team in London is here to guide you through every step of arranging a funeral that honours your loved one’s memory with dignity, respect, and affordability. Whether you need immediate assistance or are planning ahead, we offer tailored services designed to meet the unique needs of families across Greater London, from the bustling heart of Westminster to the quiet suburbs of Croydon and Tooting.

A Personal Approach to Funeral Care

Every family’s needs are different, and our services reflect that diversity. For those seeking simplicity, our direct cremation option provides an unattended, cost-effective solution starting from just £895. This includes collection of your loved one, care in our facilities, and the return of ashes in a simple urn. Many families choose this option to hold a personalised memorial at a later date, whether in a garden, place of worship, or a location meaningful to their loved one.

Alternatively, our direct burial service offers a similarly straightforward approach. Without the need for embalming or elaborate ceremonies, we ensure a respectful burial in a natural burial ground or cemetery of your choice. Families often pair this with a celebration of life later, allowing time for relatives and friends to gather from across London or overseas.

For those wishing to honour cultural or religious traditions, we specialise in arranging traditional funerals that align with specific faiths, including Islamic, Hindu, Jewish, and Christian ceremonies. From horse-drawn carriages to graveside prayers led by local clergy, we work closely with families to ensure every detail respects their beliefs and customs.

Our Direct Cremation Package Includes:

  • Collection and care of the deceased from mortuary
  • Professional fees
  • Provision of a coffin gown
  • Standard Wood veneer coffin
  • Selected crematorium

Please note that in England and Wales there is typically an additional fee of £82 for the medical certification document required for cremation.

Supporting Families Across London

Serving all 32 London boroughs, our team is deeply familiar with the logistical and emotional challenges of arranging funerals in a city as vast and diverse as London. We coordinate with cemeteries, crematoriums, and venues across the capital, including busy locations like Tower Hamlets and Stratford, to ensure seamless arrangements even at short notice. For families with relatives overseas, we offer live-streamed services and memorials, ensuring no one misses the chance to say goodbye.

Pre-planning is another cornerstone of our service. Our pre-paid funeral plans allow you to lock in today’s prices while outlining your preferences for the future. This is particularly valuable in London, where costs can rise rapidly, and peace of mind is priceless.

Why Families Trust Us

Newrest Funerals is a family-run business, and this personal touch defines everything we do. We’re available 24/7 to assist with sudden bereavements, and our transparent pricing ensures there are no hidden costs. Many families praise our ability to balance affordability with compassion—whether arranging a quiet cremation in Enfield or a traditional Sikh funeral in Southall.

One recent testimonial from a client in Crouch End shared: “From the first call, Wendy and her team treated us like family. They handled the Islamic funeral for my father with such care, even sourcing a halal-certified coffin and coordinating with our mosque. Their attention to detail lifted a huge burden from our shoulders.”
