Additional Options

At Harris & Steadman we strongly believe every funeral is a personal choice - that is why we use the strapline: "Made Your Way" when it comes to choosing a bespoke or alternative funeral. With that in mind, funeral directors should not be like a supermarket with a list of definitive prices for loved ones to choose from. All you have to do is ask us, tell us what you would like for your loved ones funeral.
