The family are also keen to keep funeral care independent, personal and local — as opposed to people going to big national online companies. Some of these companies are not even registered funeral directors and provide a transfer service to many locations across the country. Owens guarantee a personal and professional local service ensuring the loved one will remain in their care from the first point of contact until the day of the cremation.

Owens’ Lorraine said: “At Owens we pride ourselves in our family looking after your family and providing an outstanding level of care and compassion. We pride ourselves in never overselling on products or services — we are very mindful of the rising costs and we guarantee your loved one will remain in our care from the first point of contact until the day of their final journey.”

Whilst Owens offer the lowest cost funerals in Wirral, they also deliver the best service. One of the things they offer is a ‘memory tree’ at their Liscard premises — with a personal bauble dedicated to each loved one they look after — and they also provide families with Forget-me-not seeds.

They also have a bespoke jewellery service where Alex personally handcrafts ashes into beautiful, personalised pieces and they completely self-fund a memorial service every December for all the families who have lost loved ones. The annual memorial service takes place at St. Alban’s church in Wallasey and each family member can take away a bauble after the service to place on their Christmas tree at home.
