The Team

Alan Taylor, Funeral Arranger

Funeral Arranger

I find the Scotmid Co-operative team friendly, extremely professional, and empathetic.  I’ve been a Funeral Arranger with Scotmid Funerals since 2015, and I still get a great deal of job satisfaction and see it more as a vocation.

Before joining the team, I worked within a charity, as a level 3 Care Assistant looking after older people with Dementia in a Nursing Home in the Grange, Edinburgh.  In my short time as a Care Assistant, I became a Key Worker and developed many skill sets, focusing on personalised centred care, and seeing the individual not the disease.

Before my 3 years as a Care Assistant, I spent 25 years as a regular in the British Army.  I joined the army at 16 as a Junior Bandsman, and over my career carried out various roles, Medical Assistant, Chemical Warfare Specialist, Health & Safety Advisor.

I’ve travelled to many places around the world and been on many operations, including the Ambulance Dispute, both Gulf Wars, Northern Ireland, Belize, Bosnia etc, so I have lots of medals.  I was eventually medically discharged and left Her Majesty’s Armed Forces in November 2012.

My wife and I have three children/young adults, Shawn, Gemma and Sophie who we are very proud of. 

Christine Crompton, Funeral Director

Funeral Director

Originally from Glasgow, I moved to Edinburgh to pursue a career in the hospitality industry. I am passionate about customer care and that is why I enjoy being a Funeral Director so much now.

I live with my partner Allister in Midlothian and have one daughter, Suzanne. Previously I lived in a rural small holding and had numerous animals, a beloved Bernese Mountain Dog called Belle, a bearded collie, three cats, two pigs and Mr Poppy a house rabbit.

Outside of work I enjoy cycling and have completed many cycling challenges for our nominated charity, including many Pedal for Scotland ( 47 miles from Glasgow to Edinburgh), Edinburgh Night-ride ( 50 miles around Edinburgh on Midsummer Evening) and part of The Great Tour of Britain which was 70 miles from St Andrews to Musselburgh. I also enjoy hill climbing and would love to bag lots of Munros in the near future.

Chris Armstrong, Funeral Manager

Funeral Arranger

I began working with Scotmid in 2000 as a Funeral Operative and progressed to Funeral Director, Senior Funeral Director and to my current role of Funeral Manager. I started at Fountainbridge then our main office and am now based at Angle Park.

Born and bred in Edinburgh I previously worked for The Department of Work and Pensions until I found my real passion in the Funeral Industry. I have never looked back and believe I am very lucky to hold such an important role in the local community. I find my role extremely rewarding when assisting families in their time of need.
