Albany Funerals is an award-winning, independent and affordable funeral provider founded and led by Jo Williamson, operating from 669 Loose Road in Maidstone. The business has grown significantly over the last decade as more families have recommended its way of working to others, and today it serves the whole of Kent - including Ashford, Charing, Harrietsham, Egerton, Lenham, Cranbrook, East and West Malling, Kings Hill, Yalding, Wateringbury, Paddock Wood, Smarden and Tenterden - as well as further afield across the UK.
The company offers traditional, modern, simple and green funeral options, alongside coffins, ash caskets, keepsakes, jewellery memorials, flowers and celebrant services, giving families flexibility to build a funeral that reflects their own wishes and budget. A 24-hour phone line operates alongside office hours of 9am-5pm Monday to Friday. Albany has been Good Funeral Guide-recommended for 2023-2025, won a Good Funeral Award, holds NAFD membership and Fair Funerals membership, carries a 5-star Funeral Guide rating, and Jo Williamson has received a NatWest Everywoman Award - accolades the company ties to its stated values of honesty, integrity, transparent pricing and a partnership approach with families, including a commitment to helping combat funeral poverty.
