Business overview

Professional Experienced Funeral Services in Skelmersdale, Lancashire. Offering a personal service at this difficult time.

Devonport Independent Funeral Services is a small independent family business based in Skelmersdale, Lancashire, that has been established within the community since 2004. Throughout this time, we have proudly served the North West region and have built up a strong reputation throughout the community. We are an associate of the National Association of Funeral Directors.

As an Independent firm we pride ourselves on our compassion and ability to grant a unique and personal touch for all services which we perform. Richard Devonport conducts every ceremony himself and leads each funeral procession. Therefore we can provide you with a more personal service than you might receive from a larger corporation. Additionally, we can offer our proficient services at a more reasonable price. We are sensitive to the specific wishes or request that there may be for each individual funeral and are more than happy to see to particular arrangements for you.

Excellent service

To Richard, I would like to thank you and your staff for the funerals you arranged for my late Mum Marina and brother Graham . Everything was handled with complete compassion and dignity, both within 4 weeks of each other. The celebrant Jenny you arranged conducted a lovely service commemorating both of there lives. Everything went smoothly taking a lot of worry and stress away from me at this sad time. I would highly recommend this company. Regards and thank you, Christine and family.
