Critoph & Crowe Ltd is an independent funeral director based at 49-55 Lorne Park Road, Lowestoft, Suffolk, established in 1926 by Charles Percy Critoph and William Crowe. Now in its fourth generation of family ownership under Jonathan Critoph, the firm offers traditional funerals, direct cremation, celebration of life events, memorial services and prepaid funeral plans, available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The company states it "remains a family business with no connection with large funeral organisations" and is a member of SAIF, adhering to its Code of Practice. It has recently expanded its fleet with a fully electric hearse and limousines alongside traditional Mercedes-Benz vehicles, offering families an eco-friendly transport option alongside the conventional fleet.

Serving Lowestoft and the surrounding Suffolk area, the firm combines nearly a century of family heritage with modern, environmentally conscious options for arranging a funeral.
