Worthing funeral arranger named as 2025 Good Funeral Awards finalist
A Worthing woman has been named as a finalist in the 2025 Good Funeral Awards in recognition of her outstanding service and compassion.
Rebecca Doherty, funeral arranger and director at Rounce Funeral Services, has been honoured in the Funeral Arranger of the Year individual category.
She will find out in September at a ceremony in The National Space Centre in Leicester whether she has won the national award, competing against three other finalists in the category.
Rebecca said: "It’s such a privilege to support families in saying goodbye in a way that feels right for them. I’m deeply touched to have been nominated, and very proud to represent Worthing.”


Rebecca said she had supported hundreds of local families, always with warmth, sensitivity and dedication. The nomination reflected not just her professional excellence but the trust she has earned in the Worthing community.
Rounce Funeral Services, in Half Moon Parade, Half Moon Lane, has been a family-run business for more than 20 years.
