James Henry Funeral Services

James Henry Funeral Services is a long-established, independent family business based at 100 Broughshane Street in Ballymena, County Antrim, serving the local community with bereavement guidance, pre-arranged and pre-paid funeral plans, floral tributes, and monumental services including monuments supplied, inscribed and erected. The firm offers both home visits and consultations at its premises near multiple car parks.

The business traces its roots back to 1892, with historical newspaper cuttings documenting the founder's involvement in local business and civic life, including the purchase of the Farmers' Hotel on Mill Street and early innovations in funeral equipment, and it remains a fifth-generation family-owned enterprise more than 130 years on. The firm is affiliated with MCC (Mutual Concern for Funeral Care) and has an active community connection with Broughshane Waterfowl Park, one of only two places in the world where all seven species of swan can be found, with company representatives regularly engaging with the charity.

Services are delivered with what the firm describes as a personal and detailed touch, covering both traditional funeral arrangements and crematorium services, with round-the-clock availability and published pricing for standard services, cremation options and additional choices to help families understand costs upfront.
