Snowy Weather Does Not Stop Kent Funeral Directors
Come rain, sun or snow we still operate and take care of your loved ones funerals.
With the recent heavy snow in Kent, we made sure we could proceed with funerals. Our very own funeral director, Simon Welham, made sure that we could safely carry out a funeral at St Lawrence church, Stone Street, Seal Chart, near Sevenoaks in Kent. He went to the church the day before and cleared and salted a path making sure that the mourners could safely walk along the church path.
From our Sevenoaks funeral home, we prepared and took the deceased to St Lawrence church, Stone Street, Seal Chart where the funeral took place.

The most popular – and most surprising – funeral songs we’ve heard
by Simon Welham
As a funeral director serving communities across West Kent and South East London, I’ve witnessed firsthand how music can profoundly shape a farewell. Whether you’re arranging a funeral in Sevenoaks, considering a pre-paid funeral plan in Tonbridge, or simply exploring options in Chislehurst and Bromley, understanding the role of music can be invaluable.
Today, cremation is the most popular choice when it comes to funerals in the UK. As funeral directors operating across West Kent and South East London, Welham Jones Funeral Directors see first hand how it outranks burial even more sharply in this crowded corner of the country where land is at a premium. Yet, surprisingly, just under a 150 years ago, the practice was still illegal. Why was that, and what changed for it to overtake traditional burials?
Choosing a funeral director is an important decision. Organising a funeral for a loved one – or planning your own funeral – is a key milestone event in your life. But how can you tell whether the funeral directors you are considering will treat you with professionalism, respect and empathy, that they will treat your loved one with dignity, and that they will deliver on the day? Our guide will help you make the right choice.
