“A funeral is a chance to pay a lasting tribute to your loved one. We feel honoured you have chosen us and feel pride in making your vision come to fruition.”
– Simon and Rebecca Welham
Welham Jones is an independent, family owned and family run funeral director operating in West Kent and South East London.
Serving our local communities since 1992, we now have seven branches, providing you with a knowledgeable local service when planning for your own funeral or arranging a funeral of a loved one.
Offering all the resources of a large company, whilst maintaining our personal, community ethos, our size makes us big enough to rely on, yet small enough to care.
“In a way, we are event planners but at a sad time, working to short timescales. Our experience, local knowledge and partnerships enable us to give the care and dignity that you require.”
– Simon Welham

We can manage the whole process for you, if required, so that you have more time to focus on your needs.
I just wanted to express our gratitude on the way your company, Sarah and Rebecca managed our fathers funeral prior and today’s service. They were so warm, courteous and professional with us. We are very grateful for this as we were pretty clueless on how to arrange everything and their kindness really helped. Please pass on our thoughts and gratitude to them.
