A Place to Feel Unhurried
Our premises in Worthing have been thoughtfully designed to feel calm, private, and reassuring from the moment you arrive.
There is no bustle.
No reception desk queue.
No sense of being hurried along.
Just a quiet, comfortable space where you can sit, talk things through, and take the time you need.
If you are planning to visit, we simply ask that you phone beforehand on 01903 692626. We arrange private appointments so that no other family is present during your visit. The time is yours alone.
Free parking is available directly outside.
Our Private Chapel of Rest
Our private Chapel of Rest allows families to gather for a personal farewell in complete privacy.
Unlike a large crematorium service, this space is:
-
Intimate
-
Quiet
-
Unrushed
-
Designed for reflection
Here, up to 17 family and friends can spend meaningful time together with:
-
Music of your choice
-
Readings or spoken tributes
-
Visual photo or video tributes
-
A simple, dignified setting
Many families tell us that this quiet time — away from the formality of a large venue — is the most important part of saying goodbye.
It allows space for conversation, reflection, and moments that would not be possible in a larger setting.
(If you would like to learn more, you can read about our Intimate Attended Direct Cremation service.)
Designed for Dignity and Care
Every detail of our premises has been chosen with sensitivity in mind:
-
Warm, neutral décor
-
Comfortable seating
-
Soft lighting
-
Accessible facilities
-
Discreet private arrangement room
There are no sales displays.
No pressure.
No up-selling.
We operate a transparent pricing policy with no sales targets and no up-selling. Our role is to guide you — not to steer you.
You Will Know Who Is Looking After You
At some funeral directors, you may arrange the funeral with one person and then meet a different person on the day itself.
At Rounce Funeral Services, that will never happen.
Whoever makes the arrangements with you will be the same person who directs the funeral on the day.
Instantly recognisable. Calm. Experienced. Fully aware of every detail.
Families consistently tell us this continuity provides enormous reassurance.
Independent. Regulated. Accountable.
We have been independent family funeral directors since 2004.
We are members of the
National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF)
and adhere strictly to its Code of Practice.
We are also authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (Firm Reference No. 815392).
This means:
-
Transparent pricing
-
Clear documentation
-
Professional accountability
-
Ongoing regulatory oversight
You are never placing your trust in an unregulated business.
Compare With Confidence
We actively encourage families to compare our premises, professional care and pricing with any other funeral home of their choice.
We believe you should feel fully informed and comfortable before making any decision.
There is no obligation. Only guidance.
