The benefits of using and trusting a Family-run Funeral Director
Choosing a family-run funeral director, like Anthony Barton Independent Family Funeral Services, offers several advantages. By opting for their personalised support and care, you can expect tailored assistance that caters to your specific needs and preferences. Instead of being told what is necessary, you will be presented with a wide range of options to create a farewell ceremony that truly honours your loved one in a meaningful and fitting manner. Feel free to share any questions or concerns you may have, and allow us to guide you through this process with utmost compassion and understanding.
Secondly, independent funeral directors prioritise serving their community over maximising profits for shareholders. This commitment to service and care often translates into a more compassionate and supportive experience for grieving families.
Furthermore, independent funeral directors like Anthony Barton Funeral Services have deep community ties and actively engage with local groups and organisations. By supporting initiatives such as Mossley Football Club, Mossley Town Team, Mossley Browser, Mossley Community Centre, Reubens Retreat and The Anthony Seddon Fund, we demonstrate their dedication to enriching the local community.
Whether you choose to reach out to them via phone, visit their branch in Mossley, or connect through social media platforms, you can expect a compassionate and understanding approach as they assist you during this difficult time.

Anthony says, “I wanted to care for families in the way I would want my loved ones to be cared for at what is one of the most difficult times in life. I learn something from every family that I have the privilege to care for and I understand the true meaning of individualised care. I carry out my duties professionally but more importantly, I believe myself to be a sincere, compassionate, caring, and empathetic person who will walk alongside those families in my care and will do my utmost to make sure all my funeral services are family-led and meaningful.”
Tam has been actively engaged in the funeral industry since 2013, beginning her career at an independent funeral home. In 2019, that home was acquired by a corporate entity, which prompted Tam to reassess her career path. As she preferred to stay within an independent framework, she respectfully stepped away from the industry for six months due to contractual obligations. During this time, she was fortunate to secure a position at Willow Wood Hospice, where she currently works part-time two 12-hour shifts. On her off days, she collaborates with her partner, Anthony Barton, at Anthony Barton Funeral Services, where she plays a vital role in preparing the deceased and providing support to Anthony in the management of the business.
