Can't thank the team enough, not just for all the funeral arrangements run smoothly but for all the understanding and compassion showed throughout this very difficult time. Couldn't ask for a better send off for my Dad. Thank you so much especially to Greg and Kevin, everything was managed with the utmost respect and kindness 💖

From our first contact with A.W.Lymn Derby we felt fully supported through the difficult process of arranging our Mum’s funeral. We were treated with care and compassion throughout. We felt we were in safe hands especially when we met with Greg our funeral arranger. He assessed our needs perfectly and provided an amazing service personal to us. He listened to some concerns we had and advised he knew the best person to help. Greg introduced us to Fr Liam who was amazing.Greg found the perfect solution for our issues for which we will be eternally grateful. Neil led the funeral on the day and prepared us well for how things would proceed with care and kindness. All staff at A.W.Lymn were professional and caring. We would not hesitate to recommend A.W.Lymn Derby.

The office features garaging for a new fleet of Rolls Royce Phantom cars and also displays a hearse from the 1890’s. Derwent House includes a reception, off-street parking, a family room, a visitation room, cold room facilities and washing facilities for Asian and African / Caribbean funeral rites.
Kevin Hall, the senior funeral director who manages the surrounding area, has been with A W Lymn since 2003 and is aided at the branch by funeral director Neil Reeves and funeral arranger Greg Martin.
The office opening hours are 9 am to 5 pm from Monday to Friday, and 9 am to 12.30 pm on Saturday. You can call anytime of the day, seven days a week to schedule an appointment outside of these hours if you would prefer.
This branch covers Derby city centre and its surrounding areas including Allestree, Alvaston, Belper, Breadsall, Chaddesden, Darley Abbey, Duffield, Littleover, Mackworth, Markeaton, Osmaston, Pride Park, Sinfin, Spondon and beyond.
