About Us
This funeral home was part of the Ilkeston Co-op Funeral Service, which opened in May 1994, and was then incorporated into the A.W. Lymn group in October 2003.
The funeral home is run by funeral arranger Michelle Ibbett and overseen by funeral director Mick Schofield. The office is open from Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm and on Saturdays from 9 am to 12.30 pm.
If you need assistance after hours, you can always call the telephone number at any time, seven days a week, and arrange an appointment at your convenience.
The premises offers one client parking space, a reception area, family rooms, visiting rooms and cold room facilities.
The branch gives a discount to Co-op members and also offers Ilkeston Co-op Funeral Vouchers and Ilkeston Co-op Funeral Plans.
The Ilkeston office covers all of Ilkeston and its surrounding area including Awsworth, Cossall, Eastwood, Heanor, Kimberley, Kirk Hallam, Langley Mill, Loscoe, Shipley, Smalley, Stanley, Trowell, West Hallam and beyond.
Nigel, Matthew and Jackie Lymn Rose are the directors of the A W Lymn group.
Many families mention the care and attentiveness shown by staff throughout the arrangement process and on the day itself, describing how they were guided through each step with compassion and made to feel supported during a difficult time. Families repeatedly praise the quality of the funeral day itself, noting how smoothly everything ran, how their wishes were carried out exactly, and how the service felt dignified and respectful from start to finish. A number of reviews note transparent communication and clear explanations of costs and arrangements, with staff remaining accessible to answer questions and make adjustments even at short notice.
