Services
Founded by Walter Uden in the middle of the 19th century and incorporated as a limited company in 1881, our first branches were in Ilderton Road, Peckham and Southwark Park Road, Bermondsey. Over time, Walter and his sons expanded to other areas in South East London, opening branches in New Cross, Peckham, Dulwich and Forest Hill.
W. Uden & Sons were very professional, and I am glad that we chose them to be the funeral directors for our mother. The service we received from the first to the last was beyond expectation and their reputation is absolutely deserved.
I always appreciate the little details and traditions of long-standing family firms, and the two young gentlemen who first came to take Mum away were so respectful because after they placed her in their ambulance and closed the door, they both bowed.From when we saw her dressed in her coffin, to the funeral, they were kindness itself and helped and kept us informed at every step.

I am pleased to endorse Uden & Sons as funeral directors, due to the passing of my Aunt and not living locally, I asked a near friend of my aunts for recommendations regarding local funeral directors and without hesitation Uden & Sons were recommended.
My family were impressed with the way we were looked after from the first phone call Allan Roberts to the very helpful Spencer Baxter who looked after the proceedings on the day.
Very well done to the whole team at Uden & Sons of Bexleyheath.

The whole process from first call to last was made so easy. The staff were so respectful, considerate and helpful. I have used the services of W Uden twice in the last 18 months and highly recommend them. The personal touches the company give, the advice and the help - all done with no pressure at all. The fact that the first time I used the services was in tight lock down showed me just how professional the team are. Thank you.

Twice Udens have arranged funerals for my family. On both occasions they were extremely dignified, professional and kind. They literally seem to think of everything. Most recently I chose their Bexley heath office to arrange my partner's funeral and cremation. Jack Uden's professional control removed so much of the stress.. THANK YOU.

As a family we cannot praise highly enough the friendly, respectful, professional and wonderfully caring service our mum and family received from Udens. From the moment Spencer took our mum into his care and told us he would look after her like his one of his own until the moment we laid mum to rest, Spencer, Alan and the entire team kept their word. Nothing is too much trouble for this company. They help and guide in a gentle, kind manner every step of the way. Mum's last journey was everything she would have wanted, so traditional, so very

Allan and Spencer at the Bexleyheath branch recently looked after the funeral arrangements for my uncle. From the moment of engagement, the service received was exemplary. Nothing was too much trouble and they helped my mum make the necessary arrangements with the utmost consideration and respect. On the day of the service the weather was dreadful but Darryl and his team were the epitome of professionalism and looked after us all. My uncle was treated with the utmost dignity and I have no hesitation in recommending W Uden's services.

The first person I spoke to at Uden and Sons was Spencer and from that first conversation he took care of everything. Never having organized a funeral before that was really helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and the service went perfectly. I'm very grateful to Spencer for making a very difficult time a lot easier and giving my Mum the care and attention she deserved. Thank you.
