Our service

For more than 325 years, families have placed their trust in the Field family during some of life’s most difficult moments.

That is because, at CPJ Field we understand that every life is unique. Every funeral we arrange is personal, meaningful and tailored to reflect the individual being remembered.

Whether you’re making arrangements for a loved one, or prudently planning your own, we’re here for you in every way.

A tradition of care and trust

Our heritage is built on more than three centuries of helping families navigate bereavement with dignity, compassion and understanding.

While the world around us has changed considerably over the years, our commitment has remained the same: to provide a service that is personal, professional and centred entirely around the needs of each family we serve.

From your first conversation with us through to the funeral itself and the support that follows, you can be confident that you are in caring and experienced hands.

Here when you need us

We know that arranging a funeral can feel overwhelming. That is why we take the time to listen, guide and support you throughout the process. Our team is available day and night, providing reassurance and practical support whenever you need it.

We are happy to meet with you in your own home, in one of our welcoming funeral homes, over the telephone or via video call at a time that suits you.

On the day

On the day of the funeral, our experienced funeral directors will be by your side, ensuring every detail is delivered with care and professionalism.

From coordinating transport and welcoming guests to guiding family members throughout the service, we manage every aspect with quiet confidence and attention to detail.

Our role is to provide reassurance and support, allowing you and your family the space to focus on remembrance, reflection and being together.

After the funeral

Our support does not end when the funeral is over.

Through our Never Alone initiative, we continue to support individuals and families coping with grief, loneliness and life after loss.

Never Alone is a reflection of what has guided our family business for more than three centuries. It is that caring for people is important and we do this by connecting people with local communities, wellbeing resources, practical guidance and ongoing support, helping ensure that no one faces bereavement alone.
