Cremations

Say farewell to your loved one with a respectful cremation funeral that celebrates their life and memory. Our compassionate and experienced team will take care of all the details, guiding you through your available choices to make everything as easy as possible at this difficult time. 

Here at A. France & Son, we have been arranging funeral services since 1764 – this long history has made us a trusted family-owned company for our local area of Holborn, Kings Cross, Hendon and beyond, and we now have several branches with their own Chapels of Rest across the area. 

Whether you’re seeking a simple, low-key service with minimal attendance, or a more elaborate celebration of your loved one’s life, we’ll help you to make a special day. We are fully accredited by several leading organisations, including the NAFD and the British Association of Embalmers – so you can rest assured that your loved one will be well taken care of. 

To discuss our cremations services in more detail, simply contact our helpful team today – we’re always here to listen.

Many funerals in the UK follow traditional religious practices with a typical service taking approx. 30-40 minutes. In some cases this may extend to over an hour. However there is also the option of a humanist or secular service which would include poetry, music and an appreciation of the life of your loved one. We are able to arrange a secular officiant for you if this is what you require.
Yes you can. We always recommend a simple course of embalming takes place before we dress someone in their own clothing. Alternatively, we can provide a shroud.
