WE ARE AN INDEPENDENT FAMILY BUSINESS SERVING OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY IN CHEADLE FOR OVER 160 YEARS.
Jonathan Alcock & Sons Funeral Directors of Cheadle are here to help you make the right choices for your loved ones.
We promise that we will always carry out all of our services in a highly professional, respectful, dignified and thoughtful manner. We will be guided by you and your wishes and your religious and cultural requirements will be totally considered.
We know our trade and along with the traditional aspects of funeral arranging we can move with the times and look to accommodate the many different requirements and wishes of our clients who want to give their loved ones the most appropriate and dignified final goodbye.
We are proud to serve the areas of Didsbury, Stockport, Cheadle, Poynton, Bramhall, Cheadle Hulme, Wilmslow and all areas throughout Manchester, Cheshire and beyond.
At Jonathan Alcock & Sons we prefer to offer bespoke tailored funerals over set price plans, unless you are looking to have a Direct Cremation or Simple Cremation. We understand how important, unique and personal each Funeral is.
Direct Cremations – a popular alternative to traditional Cremation Funeral Services. Typically, a Direct Cremation takes place without a formal funeral service, mourners, or a procession. However, there are variations available.
Whilst we cannot control third-party costs and disbursements, we can manage our professional charges. We have chosen to absorb the price increases and our professional charges will remain unchanged from 2025.
We have compiled a Funeral Options Price Comparision Chart to help you to compare the services we offer across our various funerals. These include our Bespoke Funerals, Direct Cremation Funerals and Standardised Funerals.
A pre-paid funeral plan is a secure and cost-effective method of ensuring that your funeral is arranged and paid for with the minimum of fuss. Our plans are remarkably easy to complete.
When a death occurs, along with it being hugely upsetting, it can also be a very overwhelming and confusing time. The information provided here is a step-by-step guide of what will happen, and what you need to do, in the days following the death.
Another service that we offer free of charge is holding in storage a file containing your wishes. We can ensure your wishes are carried out by holding your details and your requirements on file.
We are so pleased to share that we have recently added a very special Memorial Postbox in the grounds of our Funeral Home in Cheadle. We warmly invite the families we have served, along with the wider bereaved community of Stockport, to write and send letters, messages or cards to their departed loved ones.
Capturing a small part of your loved ones ashes in a beautiful and meaningful piece of jewellery is a really special way to hold your loved one close. Your loved ones ashes are respectfully and carefully encased in the jewellery or keepsake for you to treasure always.
The funeral isn’t the end of the story – so why do we stop keeping records?

Did you know…
..we are a sister company to George Hill Funeral Directors.
We used to hire our vehicles and staff to the former proprietor, Keith Beard, for many years before he retired in 2005 and Jonathan Alcock and Sons Ltd took over the running of the shop. We have continued to service the Hazel Grove community ever since. Go to the George Hill Funeral Directors Website.
