Our services cover traditional funerals, direct cremations, and alternative ceremonies, with clear guidance and transparent pricing for every family. We aim to make the funeral planning process as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
Traditional funeral services with Sussex Funeral Services provide a dignified and structured ceremony, which may be minister-led or celebrant-led. Families can choose a church or crematorium chapel service, followed by burial or cremation. Every detail, from coffin arrangements to transportation and ceremonial guidance, is professionally managed to ensure a seamless and respectful farewell.
Traditional Funeral Highlights:
Services include minister-led or celebrant-led ceremonies, church or crematorium services with burial or cremation, hearse and bearers for coffin transport, and guidance on music, readings, and ceremonial arrangements.
Alternative funeral services in Worthing provide families with flexible and personalised options. These include green or woodland burials, sea burials, and bespoke ceremonies designed to reflect the life and values of the deceased. Families are encouraged to include symbolic gestures, music, and personal readings, creating a meaningful celebration of life.
Alternative Funeral Options:
Options include eco-friendly green burials, woodland or sea burials, and fully personalised ceremonies. Personal touches such as poetry, favourite music, or symbolic rituals can be included to honour the life of the deceased.
Non-religious funerals with Sussex Funeral Services are led by trained celebrants who create personalised, professional ceremonies. Families may select music, readings, and reflections, and participate in or lead elements of the memorial. This ensures a flexible, meaningful, and compassionate service for non-religious families.
A direct cremation is a simple, cost-effective option allowing families to hold a private farewell. Services include collection from hospital or mortuary, a suitable coffin, and cremation at the local Worthing crematorium. Families can arrange a memorial or celebration of life later at a location of their choice.
Sussex Funeral Services offer a wide range of coffins and urns, including oak, bamboo, willow, cardboard, and biodegradable options. Personalised urns are also available for memorials or keepsakes. Families are guided to choose options that reflect both the deceased’s personality and the family’s budget.
Funeral costs with Sussex Funeral Services are transparent, covering professional fees, collection, transport, crematorium or burial fees, and optional extras such as flowers, limousines, and printed orders.
