Conor Vincent

Hero's Farewell are now proud to be joined in the company by Mr Conor Vincent, late of the Grenadier Guards, where he was a fully qualified drummer and bugler in the Corps of Drums.

He has taken part in numerous state occasions with duties at the royal palaces, including the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and the coronation of King Charles III.

Also based in Kent, he is available for funerals all around the South East, starting at £120 in Kent. He is able to wear a suit and beret, or vintage military uniform if desired.

Darren Riley

My name is Darren Riley, I had the privelage of serving in the 2nd Battalion Light Infantry as a Bugler for just under 8 years. During that period I played at military events in Canada, America, UK and all over Europe. Since leaving the army I have become a Armed Forces Champion looking after veterans and their families' welfare and helping them get the help they need.

I've played at many veteran funerals, weddings and also a 100th birthday.

I currently am a drummer with a pipe and drum band in Tonbridge so have scottish atire if required. I can cover most of the southeast and at relatively short notice. I can wear a blazer and trousers, blue No 1 uniform or kilt with highland jacket.
