We are a truly local and independent funeral director business - owned and run by the Hillier family since 1923. Today the team is led by father and daughter, Mark and Rebecca Hillier.
As with any family business with a long history, the way we do things today is influenced by our heritage and our respect of traditional values. Yet we always look to the future, we embrace change, adapt and innovate the way we do things to ensure that our clients continue to receive the highest quality service.
The Hillier Way is to always put people at the heart of everything we do. The people entrusted into our care for their final farewell. The people who we guide and support through the experience of losing a loved one. And our whole team of people who work with such care and compassion to arrange funerals for families that are unique in every way.
Our years of experience has taught us to always listen, to always be open, honest and truthful and to always give back to the community we live in and are part of. And our hope and wish is to continue to serve families in and around Swindon for many years to come.

To care for you and your loved one as if you are members of our own family
To be open, honest and truthful in all we do
To always deliver excellence and go the extra mile
To give back to the community we live in and are part of

We are very honoured that many of our clients like to tell us how the service they received from us made them feel. We’d like to share some of these comments with you below.

From the moment we met Reece at Hilliers, we felt completely at ease. This was our second time arranging a funeral, and after a poor experience with a different funeral director, we were nervous. He listened, understood, and guided us with … read more care and respect.
He showed nothing but professionalism, attentiveness, and compassion. Our dad was treated with the utmost dignity, and the day itself was a peaceful, beautiful farewell.

The whole team at Hilliers made a very difficult time so much easier with their kindness and understanding. We are truly grateful for the care they gave our family and the wonderful send-off for our dad. -
