What we arrange

Each of these is part of an ordinary funeral with us, not an extra.

  • 24-hour collection and transport

    Collection from home, hospital, mortuary or the coroner in a private ambulance, anywhere in London and throughout the UK.

  • Care at our premises

    Your loved one is kept in a clean, refrigerated and private facility at Mitcham Lane until the burial.

  • Ghusl and kafan

    The washing and shrouding, carried out by male or female attendants as appropriate. Family members may take part if they wish.

  • Janazah arrangements

    The prayer arranged with a mosque near the family, and the notice prepared so relatives and friends know the time and place.

  • Cemetery and grave

    The plot booked, the grave prepared for a burial facing the qiblah, and the cemetery paperwork completed.

  • Documentation

    Help with the medical certificate, registering the death, the certificate for burial, and consular papers where needed.

  • Repatriation

    Preparation, documentation, embassy paperwork and airport transport for burial in another country.

  • Support where cost is a worry

    Our Lawaaris community fund helps families who cannot meet the full cost. No family is turned away for being unable to pay.
