Has someone you love recently died?
Mourning the loss of a loved one can be difficult – especially if the death was sudden or unexpected.
Everyone grieves in their own way and time. Although some people prefer to keep their emotions bottled up inside, seeking advice and support from funeral directors in Chippenham can be comforting in more ways than one.
At Brunel Funeral Directors, we have a warm and welcoming funeral home on the edge of Westbury on Trym – approximately a 45-minute drive from Chippenham. It’s here that we’ve been offering bereavement support for grieving families in our local community for more than 45 years.
From working closely with you and your family to ensure your loved one gets the send-off they deserve, to assisting you with making the arrangements for your own funeral, we’re confident our funeral directors near Chippenham can help.

What we do
As one of Bristol’s leading independent funeral directors, you can rely on us to provide everything you need for the perfect funeral (either for yourself or a loved one).
Something that makes Brunel Funeral Directors stand out from other funeral directors in and around Chippenham is that we refuse to rush our families. Although we’re on hand to guide you every step of the way, we allow you to make the right decisions for you, your family, and the deceased in your own time.
Funeral arrangements
Organising a funeral when you’re mourning a close friend or family member can add to the stress and sadness. That’s why so many bereaved families turn to funeral directors in Chippenham or nearby.
The team at Brunel Funeral Directors will arrange an appointment to discuss your needs and any special requests made by the deceased before they passed away.
We provide a range of funeral services and packages, including:
- The Brunel Cremation – an all-inclusive cremation service including the conveyancing of the deceased into our care, preparation of the body for viewings, a hearse, bearers, and a simple 20-minute service delivered with compassion and care at Canford, South Bristol, Westerleigh or Haycombe Crematorium.
- Direct Cremation – a fuss-free, dignified cremation service with no minister, attendees, or ceremony as such. This option is perfect for those who would much prefer a low-key send-off, as opposed to a traditional/religious service. It allows the bereaved to celebrate the life of their loved in a way they would have wanted.
- The Bespoke Service – give the deceased the send-off they would have wanted with their favourite flowers, music, a specialist hearse, or an oversized coffin. Our bespoke service allows you to personalise the funeral to accommodate you and your loved one’s wishes, and the price is dependent on the individual items chosen.
If you’re unsure which funeral service is right for your loved one, our team will happily talk you through the options available over a nice cup of tea at our funeral home near Chippenham or your home. You can also call us and discuss your requirements over the phone if that works better for you.
Other services
Most funeral directors in Chippenham will arrange care for the deceased, offer guidance and bereavement support – but we do so much more than that here at Brunel Funeral Directors.
Whether it be a single posy, shaped tribute, wreath, coffin spray, numbers, or letters, our team will be more than happy to take care of the flower arrangements for you. Just let us know what you want and we’ll prepare and care for them until the day of the funeral. You can also have flowers sent to our funeral home.
Our team provide a full masonry service. That means you can choose from a wide range of headstones and font styles. And if you need an existing headstone repair, we will be more than happy to provide a no-obligation quote for the necessary remedial work.
Though not something all funeral directors in Chippenham provide, we have a large selection of scatter tubes and caskets available to purchase at our funeral home. On top of this, we offer jewellery and memorabilia, including fingerprint jewellery, memory teddy bears, glass pebbles, and paperweights.
Funeral plans from Golden Leaves
Taking out a funeral plan is a sensible decision and something that our funeral directors near Chippenham can help with.
Planning ahead gives you the peace of mind that you have the costs covered, saving your loved ones the financial burden. It also allows you to choose the type of service, coffin, and music you want – not what your family thinks you would want.
At Brunel Funeral Directors, we provide pre-paid funeral plans from Golden Leaves. You have a number of options to pay for the pre-paid plan. For example, you can pay in one lump sum or spread the cost with monthly instalments. Whichever option you choose, we can assure you that the price remains the same regardless of inflation.
If you’d like to know more about our funeral plans or want to start making the arrangements for your funeral, don’t hesitate to contact our funeral directors near Chippenham.
