Not only is our Managing Director a Funeral Director but he’s also pretty handy with a nail gun! Here’s a little sneak peek of the progress in the new HQ for Fords Funeral Directors. Coming along nicely! Well done Richard!

The sale begins

You may have heard by now that we're closing the department store in August but want to reassure you that we'll still remain as independent Funeral Directors for the county of Rutland, as we have for generations. Please see our full statement below:
Ford’s of Oakham opened in 1877 where it was originally a furniture maker and funeral directors, before gradually expanding and adding departments to become the county’s only independent department store. But, while the department... store will be closing, the original family business of funeral directing will remain, with a new office set to open at the front of the current Ford’s building in Church Street later this summer. Funeral director, Richard White, whose family has run the business for nearly 150 years said: “We know the people of Rutland will be sad to see Ford’s Department Store close its doors but the family business will still be very much at the heart of the county and we will continue to serve as independent funeral directors, as we have done for generations.” The majority of the Church Street building will be rented out and Ford’s Funeral Directors will have an office on the ground floor, which will be separated from the remaining retail space. Ford’s Department Store’s last official day of trading will be August 31st, or until stock lasts.
Thank you for all your support.
