Welcome to
Last Wishes Funerals

Funeral Directors in York

Welcome to Last Wishes Funerals, where we prioritise caring for your loved ones and honouring their precious last wishes, as well as supporting those who remain behind.

Our approach is rooted in the belief that funerals should be accessible to everyone, which is why we offer a wide range of choices to accommodate various preferences and budgets. With a background in alternative health and then trained by Green Fuse Funerals, Chris brings expertise and compassion to every arrangement.

We work closely with a network of trusted contacts to advise, plan, and lead funerals. Whether you prefer a hands-on approach or would like us to handle the details, we welcome your involvement every step of the way.

Established in 2013, Last Wishes Funerals was born out of a desire to provide a personalised, independent service tailored to your specific needs. Losing someone close can be overwhelming, but we strive to bring comfort and understanding during this challenging time.

We believe in creating each ceremony uniquely, without pre-set packages. Our goal is to offer surprising and affordable options that reflect the individuality of your loved one.

We’re proud that much of our business comes from word-of-mouth recommendations, which speaks to the trust and satisfaction of our clients. Our independence allows us to offer flexibility to accommodate a variety of budgets, styles, and preferences, including celebrations and eco-friendly/green funerals.

Whether you’re starting with a blank slate or already have some ideas in mind, we’re here to make the process as smooth and meaningful as possible. Additionally, we assist those who wish to plan ahead for their final arrangements.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us for a friendly chat or visit. At Last Wishes Funerals, we’re here to support you with care, kindness, and respect every step of the way.

Our Ethos

A funeral does not have to be overly expensive for it to be personal and meaningful, far from it.

So, how do we make funerals more affordable? We do this in 4 main ways

Keeping our overheads to a minimum

Helping you find lower cost options

Not padding the costs of ancillary services

Guidance to do as much as you wish yourselves

Of course, there are still some quite high costs over which we have no control, in particular the fees for crematoria and gravesites, both of which vary from area to area.
