Mear Family Funerals Opens
New Branch in Downham
Continuing a Century of Care
13th October, 2025 by Mears Family Funerals
We are delighted to announce the opening of our new branch in Downham, further extending our commitment to serving families with care, dignity, and respect. This new location marks the thirteenth branch in the Mears Family Funerals network, which now supports communities across south east London, Aylesbury, Walthamstow, and Southampton.
Our Downham branch is housed in a newly refurbished building on a historic site that has been home to a funeral director for over 100 years. We are proud to continue that legacy, providing local families with trusted and compassionate funeral services in a familiar and welcoming setting.
With modern, welcoming facilities designed to offer comfort and calm, the Downham branch provides a comfortable space where families can make arrangements with privacy and care. Visitors will find a thoughtfully designed interior, including a private chapel of rest, and a warm, personal atmosphere that reflects Mears Family Funerals’ long-standing values.
Speaking about the opening, Steven Mears said: “We’re honoured to bring Mears Family Funerals to Downham,” said a spokesperson for the company. “This location has supported local families for generations, and we are proud to continue that heritage with the same dedication and compassion that guide all our branches.”
As a family-run business, Mears Family Funerals remains dedicated to providing personal and affordable funeral care to every family we serve. From our beginnings in south east London to our latest branch in Downham, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of service and support.
The Downham branch is now open, and our friendly team welcomes visitors who wish to learn more about our services or discuss arrangements in person.
