Phillip Emery Funeral Directors

Phillip Emery Funeral Directors is an independent, family-run business based at Bedford House on Bow Street in Rugeley, founded by Phillip Emery in his hometown. Phillip began his career at 16, gained his embalming qualifications in 1994, and worked at larger funeral companies before opening his own practice, bringing together with his father Michael, who contributed 27 years of business ownership experience, and Sandra, who added a further 20 years of industry expertise when she joined in 2010.

Situated centrally between the Police Station and Bus Station, the firm serves Rugeley, Cannock, Tamworth and the surrounding areas with three clear package options: Standard Cremation, Bespoke Funeral, and Direct Cremation, alongside Golden Charter funeral planning for those wishing to plan ahead. The team places strong emphasis on both traditional services and alternative arrangements tailored to individual family wishes.

Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and accredited by SAIF, Phillip Emery Funeral Directors combines nearly 50 years of combined family experience with round-the-clock availability, giving Rugeley families a genuinely independent, locally accountable choice.
