Independent Funeral Directors
Serving Dorset for over 110 years

WE’RE COMMITTED TO HELPING YOU IN EVERY WAY

At a time of great sadness it can be hard to think straight; never mind make lots of decisions about the funeral arrangements.

But you can call us any time, day or night, and we’ll give you the essential funeral guidance through every step of what needs to happen. Douch Family Funeral Directors have a long history of helping families deal with the practical arrangements that go towards making your loved one’s funeral service unique to them.

We have several branches in Dorset, so you can find one that’s local to you. Our staff are experienced and caring and will do everything to ensure a dignified funeral service. From floral tributes to catering, our focus on the finer details creates a graceful farewell.

And our commitment to you doesn’t end on the day of the funeral. Grief affects us all differently and at different times. That’s why we’re still here for you after the funeral, to help and advise as you continue to deal with your loss. We also run local bereavement support groups across Dorset, where we offer guidance from a qualified accredit councillor.

Making financial arrangements for your funeral

If you are worried about leaving the financial burden of planning a funeral down to family, you might consider planning your funeral in advance. Pre-paid funerals are a weight off your loved one’s mind so that they can focus on making memories at your send off. You’ll also have spared them the stress of deciding how to arrange your funeral. Visit your local branch today and we’ll talk you through the details.
