Our History

Iqbal Memorials is an family owned,  family run, local business based in the town centre of Blackburn, Lancashire. Founded in 1989 by Mr Rashid Nasir Iqbal, we offer memorial services for all cemeteries and can tailor the service to meet your individual needs. We have a team of highly trained professionals and our dedicated staff are always available in your time of need. 

Rashid is helped in the day to day running of the business by his wife Shahida Iqbal and daughter Raisa Iqbal, Zubair Iqbal ( manager) and Ali Iqbal ( stonemason, graduate of Stonemasonary from Weymouth College, Dorset).

All our work is fixed by our highly trained staff. We make the memorials and engrave them on our premises. We fix the headstones and memorials ourselves.
