Gordon Blake Funeral Directors offer a complete and personal funeral service for families throughout the Forest of Dean and surrounding areas, including Cinderford, Lydney, Coleford, Lydbrook, Drybrook, Newnham, Mitcheldean, Chepstow and nearby villages.

When you entrust us with making funeral arrangements, we provide advice, guidance and support to help you create a funeral that is a fitting and individual tribute to your loved one.

Whether you are arranging a direct cremation (also referred to as a pure cremation), a simple funeral service or a more traditional funeral, we will carry out your wishes with the same level of care, dignity and compassion.

Our experienced team will guide you through every stage of the process, including advice on registration and coroner procedures. We liaise with all necessary third parties on your behalf, including nursing homes, hospitals, doctors, clergy or Civil Funeral Celebrants, crematoria or burial authorities, printers, florists, musicians, newspapers and caterers.

For complete peace of mind, all arrangements are confirmed both verbally and in writing, together with a clear written estimate detailing our fees and any third-party costs payable on your behalf.

At Gordon Blake Funeral Directors, we are proud to support generations of families across the Forest of Dean and neighbouring communities with professional and compassionate funeral care when it matters most.
