We are situated in a substantial funeral home near the centre of Poole with private chapels of rest in a private garden behind the house and with plenty of car parking for visitors. Tapper Funeral Service is a partner of Harbour View Crematorium which can offer unique packages of services to bereaved families. We also sponsor and operate Outlook Bereavement Support, a free-of-charge help resource.

"Laura in particular was very diligent in her efforts to give my dad the perfect send off. She was always on hand to answer questions and concerns (which there were a lot of!) and was a calming presence during what was a very emotional and stressful time."
— Ryan Toms (about Laura)
"Laura was calm and understanding with her empathy showing at all times as she guided us through the process, not rushing us and answering all our questions. We couldn't fault the service we received — our very special thanks go to Laura."
