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 Hilliers 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.
