Safe Hands funeral firm executives face fraud charges in court


The hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Thursday was the first time the men had appeared in court charged with the offences.

Wells was the director of the parent company for Safe Hands, while Debenham has been described by the SFO as a “fellow senior executive”.

The case was transferred to Southwark Crown Court, where a hearing has been scheduled for 5 March.

The court heard Wells, 39, is currently living in Marbella in Spain, while Debenham, 43, is living in Norwich.

Both were granted bail with the condition that they must notify the court and the SFO with any change of address, and they must do so within three days of moving.
