'We decided to look to expand into Burnley and Pendle because we have helped a lot of families from those areas'

Agápe Funeral Service opened in 2013 on April 1 in Waterfoot, and exactly 10 years to the day they celebrated opening the new branch in Brierfield.

Sharon said: “We chose the Greek name Agápe because it means unconditional love – it also means affectionately taking care of the dead, which is what we make a point of doing well. Both of our premises were originally funeral homes, and in Brierfield we have a Chapel of Rest as well as a large room for a service chapel.“We decided to look to expand into Burnley and Pendle because we have helped a lot of families from those areas and then we saw the former Co-op building was available.

Sharon said: “Sometimes families decide to have a direct cremation, without any service, but our new building means we will be able to offer them the chance to have a family service in our premises for a minimal extra fee if they desire. At Agápe we are a modern funeral service, we don’t offer our families a package, we create the bespoke funeral to meet their wishes, wants and requests.

Families are also given an online page, where people can post thoughts, wishes, photographs or videos and the page is left open indefinitely.“Friends from abroad could post their thoughts on the page, and his daughter was delighted when someone put up a photograph of her dad in school, which she had never seen before.”
