Independent Funeral Directors of Stourbridge, H Porter & Sons, provide a high standard, caring and compassionate 24-hour funeral service to Stourbridge, Kinver, Hagley and surrounding communities in the West Midlands, Shropshire, Worcestershire and South Staffordshire. We provide pre-arranged funerals, memorials, Jaguar/Daimler limousines, private chapels of rest and on-site catering, and we have all the experience and dedicated bereavement facilities needed to assist our clients in the arrangement of a complete funeral service, providing help and understanding in the situation that families and mourners find themselves at this most difficult time.

H Porter & Sons was established in 1843 and over the years since has had premises in Queen Street and Enville Street (Stourbridge) before moving to its current premises in South Road in 1970. H Porter & Sons has been serving Stourbridge and the surrounding areas for over 160 years and are very proud that we are still a family owned and managed business and we hope that this reflects in our personal service to you at this time. Pat Porter is the proprietor of the business, with daughter Lucy and son-in-law Ben looking after the day-to-day business.

When called upon to arrange a funeral, we take complete responsibility for all the details involved, so that relatives have no more to worry about than is absolutely necessary at this difficult time. It is for this reason our service and premises have been carefully planned to produce a combination of efficiency, immediate help and personal attention.

We are available to give personal service at any time of the day or night, at weekends and Bank Holidays. Once we have been notified of a death, everything can be left safely in our care, with the exception of registration.

We are members of the NAFD whose constant aim is to improve the standards and knowledge of its members and their service to the public. We are a privately owned family business, all our funeral directors are fully qualified, hold Diplomas in
Funeral Directing or else are in training towards that qualification and are members of the British Institute of Funeral Directors.

Whether a person is recently bereaved, caring for someone who is dying or simply planning ahead, the NAFD Bereavement Advice Centre will help advise them on their questions and concerns.  The Centre can also direct people to locally-based experts, such as bereavement counsellors and can advise what actions need to be taken when somebody dies.  They can be contacted on 0800 634 9494 from 8.00 am to 8.00 pm, Monday to Friday, or via their website.
