George Steele & Son Funeral Directors was established in 1919 and has served Ossett and the wider Wakefield area for over a century, now operating as a trading name of Funeral Partners Limited within its national network of around 297 branches. The business remains rooted in its local community while benefiting from the resources of the larger group.
The team arranges cremations, burials, green and woodland funerals, and unattended cremation, together with memorial masonry, coffin selection, ashes caskets and urns, transport, floral tributes, orders of service and probate assistance. Prepaid Choice Funeral Plans are available through Alternative Planning Company Limited, and funerals are priced from £1,750 (excluding third-party fees) under a published standardised price list; the firm also offers bereavement counselling and guidance resources.
George Steele & Son is a member of the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD), with independent customer reviews hosted via Much Loved. Staff describe their approach as flexible and personalised, letting families 'choose the level of support' they need, with 24/7 availability and home visits offered for arrangement consultations.
