About Us
The original branch in Beeston was established as an Independent Family-run Funeral Directors in 2007 by Julie and husband Richard Wesson.
Julie began her career in the Funeral business from 17 years old, having enrolled in a YTS government training scheme and has since gone on to earn recognition for her hard work with a Diploma in Funeral Directing.
Having started out at another premises in Beeston, the new office, opened in January 2020 by Tina Stowell MBE (Baroness Stowell of Beeston), is located around the corner from Villa Street and named Harold House in honour of Julie's father, who sadly died only a couple of years prior.
Julie Wesson Independent Funeral Directors understands bereavement is one of the most harrowing and emotionally difficult experiences a person can go through and their trained staff can provide the highest level of care, guidance and support available, as well as take care of your loved one with respect and dignity.

The service we received was excellent. Ellie was very empathetic and advised us well. Communication was fantastic, our celebrant Debbie Wombwell was incredible. On the day of the Funeral, Richard was very accomodating to a request from the care home to do a drive past for the residents. The funeral attendance was in the hundreds and this was dealt with perfectly so we had maximum time in the chapel. I cannot recommend these guys enough. Thankyou so much for making a terrible time go so smoothly.

From start to finish we received an outstanding service from all the team and we are truly grateful for the care and compassion we received while arranging our Dad's funeral. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you, you made the unbearable bearable 🌹

From start to finish we can’t praise and thank your business enough. From taking out the pre paid funeral back in 2018 to the ceremony 19th of September 2024 you all made a distressful situation so very much easier
