Our Community
We are deeply committed to supporting our local community.

We also participate in charity events, such as our annual charity golf day, which has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for local charities.
Our History
The business was first established in 1892 when Daniel Robinson bought a building company in Stansted, where he began to make coffins and to arrange funerals. Today, we have grown to include offices in Harlow, Great Dunmow, Sawbridgeworth, Braintree, Epping, Halstead, Loughton, Old Harlow, and Waltham Abbey. Our business is owned mainly by the third generation of the family founder, Daniel Robinson.

From the first meeting with Seamus and Jo; complete professionalism and kindness.
Seamus and his team present immaculately as do the hearse and limousine.
Seamus with top hat and cane walked the entire length of our road to All Saints’ Church. Very important to me. Dave’s last journey from home to church.
Absolute confidence, after recommendation from a dear friend that Seamus and Jo were the most respectful and empathetic of Funeral Directors. It’s a painful time for families. Seamus & Jo will care for you and your loved one. Thank you dear Seamus & Jo.
