Benedict Funeral Directors are ideally suited to provide funeral undertaker services for residents of the Sandy area.
We are here to help and advise
Being a family run Undertakers brings certain advantages with it, namely you are assured of our personal touch; total respect, honesty and compassion. Part of that respect is to let you know your options; funerals are one off events and they can be relatively simple or very extravagant.
Our promise to you is one of honesty. We will tell you the truth about what your options are. Be assured no matter what you choose, be it simple or extravagant, our respect to you and your loved one will not change, it’s what makes us who we are.
Sandy Funeral Options
Our funeral home, and both our chapels of rest, are in Arlesey, which is within easy reach of Sandy.
Sandy is usually served by one of three Crematoriums; Stevenage Crematorium, or to give it it’s correct name Harwood Park Crematorium, which is located just outside Stevenage on the Watton Road and rests in its own beautifully landscaped gardens. The second crematorium is to be found in Luton; Vale Cemetery & Crematorium. The address is Vale Cemetery & Crematorium, The Vale, Butterfield Green Road, Luton, Bedfordshire, LU2 8DD. Whilst Luton Crematorium is older than the Stevenage Crematorium, it is beautifully maintained and presented. The third crematorium is Bedford Crematorium, located at 104 Norse Road, Bedford, MK41 0RL, for families requiring a slightly larger facility than that offer at Stevenage and Luton; (for funerals whereby a very large amount of people are expected to attend).
Of course cremation is not the only option; there are different cemeteries available for burial, (as opposed to being cremated). Benedict funeral Directors are more than happy to discuss this with you. Sandy Town Council is the owner of Sandy Cemetery which is located in Potton Road, Sandy. Whilst space at this cemetery is limited burials and internment of ashes are still offered. There is a small chapel in the cemetery.
Sandy has a fine Church of England church called St Swithun’s. St. Swithun’s is located on High Street, Sandy (the High Street is also part of the B1042). Subject to approval from the appropriate minister or officer in charge Benedict Funeral Directors Ltd can arrange funeral services at St. Swithun’s.
