Local Funeral Directors Altrincham
Jeremy and Sara Fixter established Full Circle Funerals Partners Altrincham because they wanted to deliver the best possible funeral care to their local community. Available 24/7, our funeral directors are there for you when you need them.
We believe that our physical environment has a significant impact on how we feel and for this reason we have made sure that our service is warm and welcoming. Having said that, we also understand that sometimes people feel they would rather us visit them in their homes (or at a different location convenient for them) and we are more than happy to accommodate any such request.
Each Full Circle Funerals Partner is an independent funeral business. At the same time, each belongs to a larger funeral home franchise network. That means you’ll get the combined benefits of local funeral services to support you, while also enjoying the reassurance that a network of colleagues is there to help. This means we can share good practice and ensure that we are collectively working to continually improve the quality of funeral care.
Get in touch with our Altrincham funeral home today to learn how we can help you, or to start the funeral planning process. You can also read below to find testimonials from people who have worked with our Altrincham funeral directors.

What does a funeral director do?
A funeral director is ultimately responsible for arranging and overseeing all the aspects of a funeral service. The role extends beyond planning and administration – we also provide support and guidance to families during a challenging time. We look after the person who has died before the funeral and ensure that they are safely transported to the place of their funeral service and committal. We support the family (or whoever is planning the funeral) with the necessary paperwork, including registering the death and obtaining any legal permits you might need for burial or cremation.
We’ll meet with the person planning the funeral to discuss their preferences, any cultural or religious requirements and budget for the funeral. We will then discuss the options available, in terms of burial or cremation, types of services and other arrangements. At Full Circle Funerals Partners Altrincham, you can customise your service to your exact requirements, and we’ll support you to make the right choices for you.
If you’re would like additional support, we can recommend bereavement counselling services and other resources to help you. We want to make the process simple and as easy as possible, while making sure that the funeral is carried out with the utmost respect and according to your wishes.

Jeremy made the whole process simple and transparent. He was always ready to help with knowledge, expertise and professionalism. We had a lot to deal with – legal, family issues, home clearance, minimal budget etc and Jeremy made the funeral arrangement easy and we were confident that it would be handled efficiently and with great care and attention. I always felt able to call and be treated with care and understanding. I am happy to recommend Jeremy to anyone.

Jeremy made the whole process seamless. He was sensitive and diplomatic, a definite requirement! His advice on all aspects of the funeral were first class. There was absolutely no “hard sell”, only advice and suggestions. Absolutely nothing could be improved upon, it wasn’t any easy funeral as there were over 300 attendees. Jeremys team were first class and inobtrusive. As a family we can’t speak highly enough of Jeremy and his team at Full Circle Partners.
J M Cobbold
Jez was very helpful, calm and offered great advice. He took all the stress away and dealt with everything in a very professional and very friendly way. I’ve not had much contact with undertakers and it was very refreshing to see such a friendly approach and can do attitude. I would not hesitate to recommend Jez and the Full Circle Team.
