Yesterday, a Standards and Quality Manager from the NAFD made an unannounced inspection. We had lengthy chats about our policies and procedures, alongside a full inspection of our premises and records here at Birch house, to ensure we comply with the NAFD Funeral Director Code of Practice.

We are pleased to share that we passed this inspection, and received praise for many of our systems and the facilities that we offer.

We welcome inspections like this, to demonstrate through independent oversight that the standards we set for ourselves match those expected nationally. For more information about how the NAFD monitor standards, please see the following link: www.nafd.org.uk/standards/how-we-monitor-standards/
