About Us WE ARE A FAMILY BASED INDEPENDENT FUNERAL DIRECTORS


We are a family run company offering a personal service, who are here to help and support you and your family through the practicalities of laying your loved one to rest. We will complete any necessary forms for you, or with you, and we ensure that you receive every assistance with your decisions and arrangements. We have never forgotten that it is the personal touch that our families need, we genuinely care and will be there when ever you may need us, even once the funeral has passed.

Willow was established in 1996 and within a year of opening we become contracted to Greenwich Coroners as well as obtaining funeral contracts with Greenwich and Bexley Council. 

The Tender Touch was established in 2008 and was shortly contacted by Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital, Kent Coroners for Medway Towns, aswell as Darent Valley and Kings College Hospital. 

Willow & Tender Touch are owned and run by husband and wife, Paul and Lorraine Hopper.

Each of our branches are designed to feel like a home from home, however if you would prefer, we can come to your home and make all the necessary arrangements at a time convenient to you and your family. 

Independently run 

Our ethos is to bring the independent run funeral directors back into the community, we felt that this has been lost due to the expansion of large corporations and their high costs. We have tailored packages that are affordable to our families that may be on low income, without compromising on the quality, care, and dignity you and your loved ones receive.
