Your Team

At Andrew Roughley Independent Funerals Directors we have a combined experience of over 60 years of helping the families who have lost their loved ones. They understand the importance of being able to listen and provide the help, support and care that is needed at what can be a very difficult and confusing time.

Andrew Roughley is the funeral Director who will help and guide you through the arrangements and provide support and guidance before, during and after the funeral.

Alex is Andrew's wife who, along with Pauline and Karen will also be able to help and support you in every aspect of the funeral arrangements, providing guidance with floral tributes, order of service, music and any other aspect of the funeral service you wish for your loved one.

Steve, Mike, Gary and John are experienced in all aspects of the funeral service and will ensure that your loved one is taken care of from the moment you make contact with us and they are brought into our care.

We do not have a call centre. When you contact us, you can talk with myself or one of my colleagues who are experienced in all aspects of funeral arrangements, have local knowledge and will be available to answer your questions anytime. We care because you care.

Why Go With An Independent Funeral Directors

As with all companies, the funeral business is in danger of being swallowed up by huge, impersonal International conglomerates.

This creates a problem for bereaved families not knowing whether they are dealing with a professional family orientated business with your needs being their main concern or with a multi-national, with profits and shareholders being their main priority.

Even with the name still above the door it does not follow through that they are still the owners of the business inside. Do not be afraid to ask if the Funeral Directors you are talking with are independent or part of a multinational group. For a more personal, affordable and individual service, ensure they are independent and family run.

A Message From Andrew

I have been a Funeral Director since 2006, a role I truly cherish, offering help and guidance to many through a troubled and traumatic time. Having worked in the role of Funeral Director for the multinational Dignity Funerals Ltd for many years before transferring to Graham Clegg Funeral Service, Maghull when it was an independent funeral service, before it was taken over by the multinational Funeral Partners Ltd. After 18 months of working under their control, both myself and all the team wanted to return to a family run Funeral Directors and the traditional values that we all felt were important and ensure that the families we look after are treated with the utmost respect and dignity rather than driven by money and profit.

Now, as an Independent in the heart of Maghull and with the expert assistance of four of my former colleagues, we would like to offer a more personal approach with the main focus being on you, the family.
