Respectful Funeral Service

Drugs CommissionDignified - Affordable - Local

The Respectful Funeral Service is dignified and professional but still affordable, providing an alternative choice to consider for your departed friend, relative or loved one.

A funeral is deeply personal.

It is an opportunity to say goodbye, to mourn a loss and to celebrate the life of a relative, friend or loved one.

To support and help our communities during times of bereavement, we have worked closely with local funeral directors to create a Respectful Funeral Service package, which is dignified, respectful, affordable and local.

Our partners are offering residents of Dundee a tailored funeral package with savings of approximately 20% to 34%* based on the Scottish average cost for funeral directors' services of £2,671 (based on 2018 figures.)

* % saving dependent on choice of Funeral Director.

The Respectful Funeral Service provides an alternative choice to consider for your departed friend, relative or loved one.

The package includes:

  • collection of the deceased from within Dundee
  • care and preparation of the deceased
  • a choice of coffin ranging from light or dark wood effect or environmental
  • a place of rest and viewing facilities
  • a hearse and one family car
  • arrangements on the day of the funeral

Additional services include:

  • recovery of the deceased from outwith Dundee
  • a minister, priest or celebrant
