We’re a small, ethical, green funeral service supporting families and community around Burnley. We’re Funeral Director of the Year 2024, which is a national recognition from The Good Funeral Awards. Natural Endings is an independent female-led company with over twenty-five years’ experience between us.

We provide a very personal service includes taking time to gain an understanding of you and your family’s values and beliefs and what is important to you. We provide female-led care for your loved one.

You might want a funeral that is eco, modern, traditional or totally unique. You may even want a cremation that no one attends and then you have a gathering later on. We work closely with you and can either fulfil your ideas or offer appropriate suggestions for creating a funeral that reflects your loved one’s unique life and personality.

 

At the heart of Natural Endings ethos is a desire to help families to have a beautiful, unique and fitting farewell for their loved one.

We are recognized for our experience arranging green funerals and woodland burials.

We also arrange cremations at Burnley Crematorium, Oakworth Crematorium, Pleasington Crematorium and beyond. Our funeral home is close by in Todmorden. We can make arrangements with crematoriums, cemeteries, ministers and celebrants that you’re familiar with. Or once we know a bit about you and your family, we can make other suggestions based on our local knowledge. If the crematorium doesn’t feel like the right venue to say goodbye the funeral service can be held our beautiful ceremony space where you can gather and reflect for as long as you all need.

Our funeral home is a peaceful space to visit.  But we also understand that you might feel more comfortable having us visit you at home to talk to you about funeral arrangements.

We have found that since we started in 2008 that families are willing to travel a little further to work with a funeral director that they feel is a good fit and takes time to understand their needs.

Our pricing is clear and transparent and we think it compares very well with the other funeral companies in Burnley.

We are a recommended funeral director by the Natural Death Centre and the Good Funeral Guide.

We’re available 24 hours a day, seven days a week all year to support you if you need any support or information.
