Serving our community with compassion, care, and professionalism
Anstey & District Funeral Services have been performing a unique and indispensable role in society since 1992. Founded by local residents, John and Pat Wright, the business was established with a vision of placing the emphasis on the quality of service provided and meeting the client's needs. With over 60 years of combined experience in the Funeral Profession, John and Pat have built an excellent reputation, employing qualified and experienced staff. Our association with the local community gives us the benefit of local knowledge that is not readily available elsewhere.
Meet the Team
Our services are complemented with the modern and personable approach of our qualified Funeral Director, Arran Brudenell, who manages the business on a day-to-day basis alongside our dedicated team of staff. Arran joined the firm in 2004, having previously worked for a large travel agent in Leicester. Having no funeral experience, Arran quickly set about learning as much as he could from John and Pat, and then embarked upon completing the Diploma in Funeral Directing through the National Association of Funeral Directors. Arran completed this complex course in less than 18 months, and at the time was one of the youngest qualified funeral directors in the country. In 2007, Arran was nominated for, and subsequently won a National Training Award for his achievements in the funeral industry in such a short time. Arran is responsible for the day-to-day running of the business, and together with the other members of staff, ensures every funeral takes place in accordance with the families' wishes.
