What Is a Simple Funeral?

A simple funeral is a respectful option for families who would like a small service or committal without the additional elements often included in a larger traditional funeral. It provides the essential arrangements needed for a meaningful farewell, while keeping the service straightforward and more affordable.

Our Funeral Planning Services in Radstock are designed to explain every step clearly, including the arrangements, timings and any costs that may apply. We will listen to your wishes and provide calm, practical guidance throughout.

 

What Is Included in a Simple Funeral?

Professional Arrangements and Administration

Our team will complete the legal documentation and administrative arrangements required for the funeral. Nicholas J. Maggs Funeral Services will also coordinate the necessary bookings and provide professional guidance from the first conversation through to after the service.

Care of Your Loved One

The service includes bringing the deceased into our care from the Royal United Hospital, together with personal care and preparation. An Elm coffin is provided, and families may use our chapel of rest for visitation.

Funeral Transport and Attendance

A hearse and four pallbearers are included for the funeral service. We can also collect cremated remains and deliver them to you if required. Our Funeral Planning Services in Radstock ensure these practical details are managed with dignity and care.
