"Hadaway & Denton is the exact type of funeral director every town should have”

The Good Funeral Guide

INDEPENDENT FUNERAL DIRECTORS IN ASHFORD

Hello and welcome

Arranging a funeral is always a difficult process, and one that requires care, compassion and respect. At Hadaway & Denton, we aim to provide the highest levels of support, while also remaining flexible to your needs. As an independent, family-run funeral director (not part of a large corporate chain), we’re here to support people when they need us most.

Range of funeral options

Grieving the loss of a loved one takes emotional and physical strength and, at this time, we need people that we can trust in to look after us; we pride ourselves on offering a range of funeral options from a simple unattended service through to a bespoke service to suit all wishes and all financial situations. We do not put mark-ups on our products such as order of service or floristry to offer further practical support to our families, who can trust in our pricing; often our ethos can save families upwards of £1000 – £2000 compared to other funeral directors.

Please note that we also serve all of Kent inclusive of Canterbury, Folkestone, Dover, New Romney, Faversham, Tenterden, Maidstone, all surrounding areas and often further afield…where you ask us to go; we go!

  • From the first day we contacted Jo & Carl we knew our Mum was in the best place before her final journey, while discussing the arrangements we always felt that our mum Was part of their family as well , no request was to much , we never felt financially pressured . We had 6 nervous members of my family who were going to carry mum into the Church and at every point Carl was on hand to reassure & ensure our mum got the send off she deserved. Just amazing people.

  • I cannot recommend Hadaway and Denton enough. From the minute I spoke to Carl, I knew we and my late uncle Bill, were in safe hands. Both Carl and Jo are so kind, caring and helpful, making the whole process so much easier than it could have been. They were there at every turn and I, along with Bills family, thank them very much.

  • Carl & Jo were the perfect choice when arranging the funeral for our son’s untimely passing, and the 2nd family funeral we have chosen them to do. They are so caring and compassionate, and make you feel so at ease, like you have always known them. All of our wishes for the day were fulfilled, they also gave us ideas we wouldn’t have thought of, they really do go the extra mile. The Celabrant Roger was a very good choice, very witty & gave us so much time to get the eulogy just right, and being able to carry a crowd....

  • Following the passing of my father the team at Haddaway Denton could not have been more helpful and efficient. They talked me through all I had to do at a time where emotions clouded judgement and clear thought. They were highly professional, and I highly recommend them.

    Ralph Peart

  • Hadaway and Denton made a very distressing time that bit easier for us. We have never organised a funeral before and they supported us all the way through with compassion, kindness and warmth. I am very pleased we chose Hadaway and Denton to help us say goodbye to Dad - they were absolutely faultless and lovely people too. Thank you to Carl and the team for everything you have done for us. All the best from the family of Clive Richardson

    Peter Richardson

  • My family really appreciated the sympathetic way Jo and Carl helped us arrange my husband's funeral. From the first meeting nothing was ever too much trouble for either of them to ensure everything was as we wanted. The support we received was excellent and we would certainly recommend this very caring business to anyone.
