Alan Rice and Tapper Funeral Service on Wimborne Road, Bournemouth, Dorset is the Bournemouth (Moordown) branch of Tapper Funeral Service, a family-owned and operated business established in 1904, offering traditional and direct cremation funerals, non-religious ceremonies and celebration-of-life services. The Bournemouth office opened in 1996 when Tapper acquired the Wimborne Road premises, with Alan Rice — a Bournemouth native with crematorium experience since 1978 — joining as director; the branch is now run day-to-day by manager Ian Pyne.

The firm is a member of the National Association of Funeral Directors, adheres to the UK Funeral Director Code, and is FCA-regulated for its pre-paid funeral plans, with access to Harbour View Crematorium facilities for local families.
