In difficult emotional time was supported to organise my mums funeral in such a respectful way. They went above and beyond to assist with extra request with tight turn around, nothing was a problem.

Highly recommend Wedlake Funeral Home.  Very professional service right from the first telephone call through to the day of the funeral  Nick and David took exceptional care, not just of our loved one, but also of us. They were so kind and helpful.  On the day of the funeral, they provided us with great support. The service was wonderful, ran smoothly and David’s words before, during and after the service were extremely comforting.  Thank you so very much

About Us

Originally established in 1921 Wedlake Funeral Home (Nick Jago and David Michael Funeral Directors) is a funeral directors in St Austell, Cornwall. From their modern funeral home in St Austell, they offer funeral services to all of Cornwall.

In 1921 Fitzroy Wedlake set up his funeral business in Higher Bugle, St Austell. It was later taken over by Mr Wedlake’s Son Geoff, who in turn handed the business over to his sons, Alan and Roderick. Alan looked after the funeral side of the business but sadly died young so his younger brother Roderick took over the business.

Nick Jago and David Michael have now been entrusted looking after the funeral home and attending to the funeral needs of the local community. They are both highly experienced and fully embedded in the local community, having both grown up and worked in the local area.

In 1989 the Purpose-built Chapel of Rest was built, and in 2018 the funeral home was completely refurbished to meet the needs of a modern funeral home. The home is fully equipped with a comfortable family arranging room and a peaceful chapel of rest, where you and your family can visit your loved one and say your final goodbyes.

Each funeral will be unique and meet the wishes of you, your loved one and your family. Nick and David are keen that a dignified funeral c​an also be an affordable one. They can arrange any type of service, from a traditional religious ceremony, to a modern celebration of life.

    When my mum passed away it was very sad for everyone. Nick and David from Wedlakes funeral home were fantastic.
    They looked after mum with so much care and dignity.
    As a family we didn't really know what to do but Nick and David guided us through the process and helped us plan the funeral.

    Throughout the funeral they were empathetic, professional and made sure everything went smoothly.
