Austin's Funeral Service, Welwyn

Austin's has been family-owned and operated for over 300 years, running 13 offices across Hertfordshire alongside its headquarters at Harwood Park, where the family established Harwood Park Crematorium and Memorial Gardens in 1997. This branch's funeral arrangement office sits at 16 High Street in Welwyn Village, run by Funeral Administrator Kelly Hedges, with a separate chapel of rest nearby at Titmus Yard where families can visit their loved one before the service; parking is available on the High Street and in local public car parks.

The Welwyn team arranges traditional and contemporary ceremonies, transportation, and personalised touches such as music, readings, floral tributes and memorial dove releases, with convenient access to the group's own Harwood Park Crematorium. As part of the wider Austin's group, the branch also offers direct cremation and funeral plans through Ecclesiastical Planning Services, and staff draw on a deep understanding of local customs and venues to support church services, cremation and natural burial, available 24 hours a day.
