Supporting Richmond
Richmond is one of Melbourne’s most vibrant and layered inner suburbs, just four kilometres from the city, where old factory warehouses and Victorian terraces sit alongside busy cafes, footy crowds and a strong sense of community. Along Victoria Street you will find the heart of Melbourne’s Little Saigon, home to a thriving Vietnamese community whose bakeries, grocers and restaurants come alive each year for the Tet festival, while Bridge Road and the historic Richmond Town Hall anchor the other side of the suburb.
We have deep experience guiding services for Vietnamese and other culturally diverse families across Richmond, and we take the time to honour every tradition with care. From our North Melbourne chapel, a short drive away, we can hold a farewell at our own chapel, at a local parish or temple, or at a place that mattered to your loved one, and we will walk you through the full range of options, including nearby resting places such as the Melbourne General Cemetery. Whatever feels right for your family, we are here for you, any time of the day or night.
