About

Humphris Funerals has been serving the local communities of Banbury, Oxfordshire and the surrounding areas for over 140 years, having been established in 1880. The business was founded by Joseph Humphris, who began working as a carpenter, joiner and undertaker from his front room at 74 Broughton Road. After several generations of family stewardship, the firm moved to its current location on Albert Street, Banbury — a site that was previously used as a brewery. Matthew Humphris, representing the fifth generation of the Humphris family, took over the business in 2010 and continues to uphold the firm's long-standing tradition of care and professionalism.

Operating from their funeral home at 32 Albert Street, the dedicated team at Humphris Funerals is committed to creating tailored funerals that reflect the unique life of each loved one. They are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by telephone, and are happy to visit families at home to discuss funeral arrangements. Services offered include cremations, burials, green and woodland funerals, unattended cremation, repatriation, memorial masonry, floral tributes, and prepaid funeral plans. As part of Funeral Partners Limited, Humphris Funerals combines the warmth of a long-established family firm with the support of a wider professional network.

Humphris Funerals were faultless from start to finish with the arrangements for my mother's funeral recently. I can't thank Diane, Simon and the team for the manner in which they handled everything from start to finish at this difficult time. I would highly recommend them

Lorraine and the staff made the process of my mother's funeral clear and less stressful. Everything went smoothly and to plan. My family and I were very impressed with the friendliness, empathy and professionalism shown by Lorraine and the staff.

I would like to thank all at Humphris for my mother’s funeral yesterday. In particular Diane for her faultless organisation, Simon and his team for immaculate delivery and Karen who is helping with memorial masonry. These are difficult days but Humphris really made everything very straightforward and helped Mum pass in style. Well done everyone. I would unhesitatingly recommend.

During such a difficult time, the entire team provided exceptional care and compassion. We were particularly impressed with the professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail shown throughout the process. Everything was handled with dignity and sensitivity, which brought us great comfort and reassurance. The support we received made an incredibly challenging experience much more manageable, and we are truly grateful for the care and respect shown to our family.

Diane at Humphris dealt with my family and I in the recent passing of my mother Maureen. Diane and all staff at Humphris showed great empathy and respect throughout, particularly for our 90 year old dad The order of service ran like clockwork. Simon who oversaw proceedings on the day and his team were first class. We cannot recommend Humphris highly enough when, as we all will at some time or another, need the advice support and services of a Funeral Director.
