Radcliffe Funeral Service is an independent family business that has been serving the Holme Valley and Huddersfield communities for over 50 years. Originally established in Honley in 1964 by Brian Radcliffe, the business has remained firmly in family hands, with Brian's daughter Gwen joining in 1976, followed by her husband Andrew in 2009, their son James in 2016, and Ian Waterhouse in 2020. The Honley branch can be reached on 01484 662324 and serves the local community with the same dedication and personal care that has defined the business since its founding.
Gwen, Andrew, James and Ian personally take care of all funeral arrangements, guiding families through every stage of the process with professionalism, care and consideration. The Honley branch features a private chapel of rest where families can spend time with their loved one in private. Radcliffe Funeral Service is accredited by both the NAFD (National Association of Funeral Directors) and SAIF (Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors), ensuring their services adhere to strict codes of conduct.
As an independent, family-run business, Radcliffe Funeral Service places great emphasis on treating each family with warmth, respect and attention to detail, offering a truly personal service during one of life's most difficult times.
