The National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF)

Part of a Society that exists to help society

Thomas Marin & James Scott are proud to be members of the National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors, the only professional organisation in the UK exclusively dedicated to serving the local independent, family owned, funeral director and his or her community.

What's in a name?

In all forms of business today, there are big, international companies that have made their profits through taking over small firms. The funeral profession is no exception. Many businesses have been swallowed up by the giants. The trouble is, there usually isn't any change of name to tell you the difference. At Thomas Marin & James Scott, you can be sure you are dealing with a locally owned independent Funeral Director.

Service that goes beyond your community

Though we're locally owned, we're not limited in our service. Through our membership of the Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors, we can assist your family in the event of a death occurring away from home.
