The answer is no, they don’t. However, depending on the cause of death, the cocktail of drugs that the deceased might have had to endure, it is advisable to have them embalmed. Because nature will take its course whatever treatment we give them.
And particularly now, with the delays in arranging and conducting a funeral, it can be many weeks between death and the opportunity to see your loved one. So we do advise that the embalming takes place. So that is Simon Welham, Welham Jones Funeral and Memorials help and advice at an emotional time.

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.
