About Us
Funeral director Christine Jones is the manager responsible for the Welling branch and is available during the funeral home opening times, which are from 9 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday. The company operates a 24 hour on call response outside normal working hours.
The office was established in 2010 and offers assistance in burials, exhumations, cremations and repatriations.
Located in Welling Way in Welling, Kent, the branch covers all of the surrounding areas and has a variety of products offered including will writing, photography, service sheets, urns and keepsakes.
The premises feature an arranging office, two chapels of rest and a reception.
Assisting the bereaved for over 200 years, the Albins family has first started working as wardens of the Bermondsey cemetery to then grow to funeral directors.

I cannot thank the Albin’s team enough for their compassion and sensitivity. The entire team from office to the day itself conducted themselves with such professionalism that I cannot express the gratitude my sister and I feel for making a difficult day as easy as it could possibly be. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. I would recommend Albin’s without hesitation. Amanda & Andrea

Chris and Dawn cared for us at the Welling Branch and Steve and his team looked after us on the day. They were all extremely professional and at the same time very kind and anticipated everything we might need. They made everything so easy and kept us informed of progress as things went along and I took great comfort knowing that F A Albin were looking after my dear mother.

The Albin team are truly excellent and deal with all funeral issues in a truly professional manner. Their compassion and empathy made this most difficult process so much easier. This is the second time our family have used the Welling office and we would highly recommend them. A special thank you to Christine and Dawn.
