Meet the Team

We are fortunate to have an incredible team of professionals supporting us and making the CFS family really work.

  • SWS

    Scott Watters

    Scott, is father to five, and has spent a lot of his life involved with musical theatre as a musician/musical director and has played a leading role on the odd occasion. He is still known to occasionally play the Church Organ when called upon. He spent 20 years in the Ambulance Service, including serving as the Manager responsible for West Cornwall. After 3 years as the Clinical Lead for Bristol, Bath, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire NHS111 he opened Cornwall Funeral Services.
  • MWS

    Matt Watters

    Matt is Scott’s son and the youngest of the directors. Although he may be the youngest he is highly professional and the reviews of the care he provides speak volumes. Alongside working as a Funeral Director he runs MJW Audio – a sound design business which provides services to theatre companies in Cornwall and further afield.
  • MCT

    Morgan Court

    Morgan, an honorary member of the family, joined Cornwall Funeral Services after a decade managing a very popular pub in Padstow. He too has a penchant for the arts, he is the Treasurer for Redruth Amateur Musical & Pantomime Society and has brought a wonderful ‘can do’ approach to the team. Morgan heads up Cornwall Funeral Services webcasting and video recording.
  • DMN

    David Maddern

    David joined CFS as a full time Funeral Director in April 2023. He comes from a vast array of experience in many fields, from his extensive career in the RAF to being a Funeral Director for a national firm. He has also spent 3 years being a freelance celebrant. David wanted to get back into funeral directing and it is our luck that we were looking for someone to join the CFS family in that role.
  • Office ATW

    Ann Tew

    Ann joined the Peakes of Tolcarne team in 2015. Since then she has played a vital role in the ongoing care Peakes’ families have received. She is both a funeral director and, like fellow funeral directors David and Scott, she is also a celebrant. Ann has very quickly merged into part of the CFS family.
  • Richard

    Richard Putt

    Richard is a highly experienced Funeral Director, and we are delighted to have him as part of the Cornwall Funeral Services family. He began his career in the funeral profession in 1973 with a highly respected independent funeral director in London. After moving to Cornwall in 2015, he worked for a national funeral provider before returning to independent funeral service with Cornwall Funeral Services, where he is proud to once again provide the personal care and support that families deserve.
  • Barry

    Barry Estlick

    Barry, affectionately known as ‘Dad’ or ‘Grandpa’ (although no relation), has been part of the CFS family since the early days and is always the font of knowledge and support. Barry is always pristine in his appearance which is no doubt due to his military background.
  • Andrew

    Andrew Reed

    Andrew is a qualified teacher but feels honoured to now be caring for people at a difficult time in their lives. Andrew can often be found treading the boards for theatrical productions in Redruth and Helston. He has two children and is married to Helen.
  • PTR

    Peter Taylor

    Peter is one of our newest members of the team having recently finished college. Like a lot of the team, Peter has a passion for technical aspects of the theatre working closely with Matt, Morgan and Scott on various productions over the years.
  • RJS

    Ryan Jones

    Ryan is our casual member of the team having joined in April 2023. After discharging from the Army in 2018, Ryan found his niche working in the funeral industry, ultimately assisting on the frontline. Ryan is a British Champion in Taekwondo, an achievement he holds in the highest regard.
  • Jordan

    Jordan Heather

    Jordan has been a friend of the directors for many years and has been both a casual and full time member of the team at various points since the start of CFS. Jordan is now our mortician and takes great pride and attention to detail in all he does.
  • GARY

    Gary Roberts

    Gary was born and raised in Redruth and is proud to serve the local community. Before joining Cornwall Funeral Services, he served in the British Army, including active service during the First Gulf War and two tours of Northern Ireland. Married with one son and two stepchildren, Gary enjoys playing golf and has a passion for travel. He has visited five continents so far and hopes to complete his bucket list by exploring the remaining two.
