Heritage Sikh Funeral
Heritage Funerals are proud to serve our local Sikh community meeting the individual needs of your family and specific needs
and respect of the Sikh religious beliefs and culture.
​Our commitment to you.
​
Our aim is to work closely with your family immediately following the passing of a loved one in order to get the relevant documentation and funeral arrangements in place so the funeral and cremation can take place at a time of your choosing.
​
We are able to offer the use of our mortuary facilities for up to 10 family members for the washing and dressing of your loved one, as is customary for some families, or alternatively we are able to prepare your loved one on your family's behalf.
​
Heritage's Chapel of Rest is available for the paying of respects from friends and family in the days leading up to the funeral. We will arrange for your loved one's funeral to be held at the local Gurdwara before the cremation and committal service at the crematorium.
​
We, Heritage Funerals, are committed to delivering an authentic, caring and unique farewell which delivers and values the religious and cultural rituals for every Sikh family.
