Share the Details of a Loved One’s Funeral with Family & Friends
Letting people know that a loved one has died isn’t an easy thing to do. To help make this a little easier, we offer a complimentary online funeral notice to all our clients which details the funeral arrangements and can be shared with family and friends.
People can also leave a message of condolence as well as find out information about your wishes for flowers and donations.

Openness and transparency are very important to us, so we have created a Funeral Cost Calculator to help you get an understanding of the overall costs of the funeral you wish to arrange. Having visibility of the costs in advance allows you to make informed decisions and choices about the funeral arrangements.
All funeral directors are required by law to publish a price list for a standardised set of products and services.
The aim of these documents is to provide transparency so you can consider your options, make informed choices and compare prices between different funeral directors.
The range of options and choices available to you at Hillier extend far beyond the standardised price list. We will work closely with you to arrange any funeral you wish, big or small, that suits your individual needs and budget.
