Message from Bob Newbould Director of Browne Brothers Funerals.
Kingston Funeral Groups number one priority has always been our families and their loved ones. Combined with the advice from experts on COVID 19, we must implement our procedural and operational changes.
Attendance at Funerals within Melbourne Metropolitan and Mitchell Shire, will be enforced in line with Government Regulations, at the time of the funeral. Funeral Staff and Celebrant/Clergy will be in addition to the allowed number of mourners.
Funeral arrangements held in our Cheltenham office may have restrictions depending on government guidelines at the time. During this time we may not be unable to attend family homes for arrangements. Clothing for your loved ones may need to be delivered to our Kingston office.
All Visitors to our Office may be required to “Check in” on the Services Victoria App, and be asked to sanitize their hands. For those attending funerals, all mourners may be required to “Check in” and sanitize their hands. If you are unwell, we ask that you refrain from attending.
During restriction phases, refreshments are not permitted to be held at any funeral.
