Burials
At J. W. Peters Funeral Directors, our years of experience working with families and bereaved loved ones in and around Morpeth. This makes us well equipped to help you navigate the burial process in this difficult time. We can facilitate burials in lawn sections, traditional sections, churchyards and privately owned cemeteries. If you wish to arrange a burial, either in a churchyard or local cemetery, we will explain the procedures and regulations.
Cremations
If you require a cremation funeral, we will assist in completing the necessary documents and ensure that the doctor’s forms are available to coincide with arrangements. We can also give advice to help make the important decision for the interment of the cremated remains. There are many alternatives and so advice and help at this time can be essential.

Direct Cremations
At J. W. Peters Funeral Directors, we are equipped to facilitate direct cremations. Unlike a lot of other companies for our direct cremations we always use a local crematorium. With a direct cremation, we arrange an unattended and respectful cremation after which you will receive the ashes of your loved one. Direct funerals have become a popular option as they can be nearly half the cost of a traditional funeral, ours starting at only £1,750 in fact. In addition to being easier on your pocket, a direct cremation allows you more flexibility to send off your loved one exactly as they would have wanted.
Green Funerals
Green or woodland funerals are more environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional funerals. Your loved one will be set to rest using biodegradable coffins or caskets instead of with a traditional coffin or headstone. Our many years of experience means that our team is more than able to facilitate green or woodland funerals and guide you as you navigate arranging one.
Repatriation
We also offer repatriation services, helping you navigate the ofttimes confusing waters of getting your loved one to their final resting place. Our team is professional, compassionate and well experienced. We will handle preparing all the documentation you will require to repatriate your loved one.

Non-religious Funerals
Our team is also able to facilitate non-religious funeral service for those you don’t require a religious service but still wish to have a more traditional formal send off. Our services cover everything from preparing obituaries to helping you select a coffin, advising on floral tributes, organising music as required and contacting a humanist officiant.
