About Hillier Funeral Service

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.

I personally would recommend Hilliers, at the most saddest time of my life they were there when I needed them, the care they took looking after my beautiful girl was second to none nothing was to much trouble they added a personal touch on the day of the funeral wearing ties of her favourite colour. The care does not end there, they offer grief counselling after the funeral, which shows what a caring and thoughtful service they provide. Thank you.

Hilliers have took care of several family members of ours and they never fail to disappoint. They were an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish with regards my father in laws funeral today. The compassion and professionalism the communication was first class and special mention to Lauren for the organising. And to Bob and Kai who were exceptional on the day and really looked after our family which helped massively. Well done guys true professionals. ❤️

I cannot thank Hillier Funeral Service enough for the care, kindness and support they gave me while arranging my mum’s funeral.

From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to help make a very difficult time a little easier. Everything was handled with professionalism, compassion and attention to detail, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble…

When first meeting John in the old town branch back in May when my dad sadly passed away, he was very professional, caring, and understanding to our wishes and helped us understand the process from start to finish, then suddenly again in Sept my mother passed away and we asked for John again to organise mums funeral, very caring and helped us through a very difficult time yet again, I can’t thank John and hilliers enough for helping us through such difficult times, would definitely recommend

The whole team have been amazing and have made the process of organising Mum’s funeral a lot easier. Everyone has been so understanding and helpful in giving Mum the send off she deserved.
Our queries were always dealt with promptly and sensitively.
The choice of Celebrant was perfect as well.
Our family has used Hillier’s for four funerals over two generations and would recommend their service to anyone.

I warmly commend Hilliers to you. They were involved in the funerals of both my Father and Mother though some considerable years apart. They were kind and hugely helpful at difficult times in our families life. They were both professional in the advice and service they offered but also treated us as though they cared and we matter. A bit like family. Thank especially to Nick for his help and advice when I did not have a clue what to do.

Hilliers we’re great from the first call to them. Nothing was to much trouble and everything was clear and simple which was exactly what we needed during this difficult time. The day of funeral the team were on hand to guide and help us through everything and can’t thank them enough for all their support

It’s such a hard day, when the funeral day arrives. You have many family and friends arriving for the service and burial, it puts your head in a spin. How fantastic were Hillier’s, the service and burial of my beautiful wife could not have been handled better. I and my family thank each and everyone from Hillier’s for the very professional job. Regards, Rogers family.
