To commemorate 25 years in business and to demonstrate our commitment to the local community Welham Jones announces a fundraising initiative in ’25s’ that will take place over the next 12 months. The idea is to support charities that maybe 25 years old, needing support for 25 units of something, or something (maybe a treatment) that costs £25 (or multiples thereof).
We have reached out through the press and asked for charities to nominate themselves, asked our staff to nominate themselves for in branch fundraising and/or a sponsored activity. Simon, for example proposes to ‘sky dive’!
Our clients will also be asked to support us either by agreeing nominate 25 for 25 for in-memoriam donations in lieu of flowers or in rounding up the funeral or memorial account by £25 or to the nearest £25 (or multiple thereof).
Keep in touch and we will update you with our progress.
Simon Welham.
As a family-run funeral director operating across the southeast, we know that when you are facing the difficult task of planning a funeral, having a reputable, local funeral director helps to make that task just a little bit easier. We are honoured to have been shortlisted as finalists at the Tonbridge Business Awards 2026. For us, it is always a pleasure to see our hard work formally recognised, but for you and your family in Tonbridge, this award represents the peace of mind needed to know you are in safe hands.
When a loved one passes away, it is your legal duty to notify the government and register the death. However, in such a trying time, the government’s ‘Tell Us Once’ service allows families peace of mind and removes additional administrative stress.
As a local, family-run funeral directors with over 30 years’ experience, we are often asked if family members are able to visit their loved ones prior to the funeral and where they are kept. And as a father-daughter-led company, we fully empathise with these concerns. Here is how you can visit your family member when you plan a funeral through Welham Jones.
