About Ford Mears & Partners, Funeral Director in Aldershot, Hampshire

Ford Mears & Partners is an established Funeral Director in Aldershot, first opening in 1987 as the third branch in our network. While the office originally operated under the G M Luff name, it was renamed in 1989 to Ford Mears & Partners. This change was made to better reflect the deep and long term ties that both John Ford and Tony Mears have to the Aldershot area, as well as their historic connections to E Finch & Son.

Operating from our Aldershot base, we regularly conduct funeral services in Ash, Ash Lane, and Badshot Lea, while also supporting families in the many surrounding villages and towns. Our team is dedicated to providing a dignified and professional service that meets the unique requirements of every family we serve.

As part of the wider Ford Mears group, this branch benefits from extensive investment in modern facilities and a diverse fleet of funeral vehicles. This partnership allows us to offer a broad range of service options and specialist resources while maintaining the personal care and local expertise expected of a community funeral home. We are conveniently located to assist with arrangements at our nearest local facilities, including Fleet Crematorium, Church Crookham Crematorium, and Crondall Crematorium.
