In over twenty years since Ian and his wife Sue have been involved with the business they have found that funerals and attitudes to death have changed greatly. There is an increasing desire for more personalised ceremonies with greater involvement by family and friends. This is something they both welcome and encourage.

In 2004 Masters & Son were awarded Best Funeral Director in the Southern Region by the Natural Death Handbook. As this award is given solely on feedback from members of the public, it is a resounding confirmation of their aims and beliefs and is doubly rewarding for them and their team of dedicated staff.

Masters & Son are members of the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) and offer guaranteed Prepaid Funeral Plans including Golden Charter and Help the Aged.
