We understand that losing a loved one is one of the most difficult times in life. We are here to help and look after you and your loved one as if you are members of our own family.
The Hillier family has been caring for the people of Swindon and its surrounding areas for four generations. Our experienced team of funeral professionals will treat you with the utmost care, compassion, empathy and understanding as we help you arrange a fitting funeral for your loved one.
Our approach is to spend time getting to know you and the person who has died as this allows us to help you to create a truly personal farewell. No matter what type of funeral you decide, big or small, we always go the extra mile to make sure you have all the guidance and support you need at every stage.
And with us, our care and support doesn’t end on the day of the funeral. Our Bereavement Care Service is available free of charge to help you through the difficult grieving process.

How we'll help you
Arranging a funeral for a loved one can feel overwhelming. Our team is here to guide you through every practical step with care and compassion, ensuring we create a unique and meaningful tribute.
Getting Started
We can meet you at one of our funeral homes in Old Town, Swindon, Rodbourne Cheney or Highworth. We can also come to your home if that's more comfortable for you. During this meeting, we'll gently walk you through the decisions that need to be made.
Decisions We'll Help You With
We'll take the time to get to know you and your loved one so we can help you create a truly personal farewell. When we meet, we'll talk through options like:
- Burial, cremation or an unattended direct cremation?
- The location: Will this be at church, a crematorium, a graveside service, or another special place?
- Type of service: Religious, civil, humanist, or something else that feels right.
- Coffin: Do you prefer something traditional, or something more modern like wicker or a colourful coffin.
- Funeral transport: Details like family cars and where the funeral will leave from.
- Music and personal touches: We'll help you find ways to reflect your loved one's personality.
- Donations and obituaries: We can help you with charitable donations or writing an obituary.
We'll also answer any other questions you have about floral tributes, a wake, or anything else on your mind. Our priority is to make this process as stress-free as possible for you and your family.

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.

We cannot thank the team at Hillier’s Funeral Directors enough for the care, dignity and compassion they showed our family during such a difficult time. From the very first phone call they were kind, patient and completely understanding … read more of what we needed.
They handled every detail with professionalism and respect, making the whole process far less stressful than we expected. Nothing was too much trouble, and they took the time to explain everything clearly and gently.
Their support meant more to us than we can properly express and it was comforting to know our auntie/sister was in such caring hands. We would highly recommend Reece and Neil to anyone needing a funeral service carried out with warmth, dignity and true compassion.
Thank you so much from Debbie, Lucy and David.. -
