There was a severe lack of communication when it came to details of the funeral. We were not informed until the day of the funereal when the coffin turned up that it will not be opened in the chapel. In fact the day before I spoke with the funeral director - Criag - who said that I would be able to see him in the chapel. The planners - Chanelle and Amy - also told me during the planning that the coffin would be open in the chapel for 5 minutes out of 30 minutes, which we agreed to. As you can imagine, this was very distressing as this would have been many people's last chance to see my husband before he was buried. We were told on the day that the council doesn't allow it, but in the 'Cemetery & Crematorium Rules & Regulations' booklet at point 18 it says "Coffins may be opened in the chapel during the service at the discretion of the Superintendent and Registrar". I spoke to the Superintendent and Registrar from the cemetery and he confirmed this, saying it's not against council policy, they just need to be informed beforehand by the funeral director and the ceremony needs to be at least an hour. The latter was definitely not told to me during the planning of the ceremony. Would be really mindful with using this funeral service, I would not use agian.

Excellent service! Very impressed with the presentation of the funeral arrangements from start to finish. The vicar was outstanding and carried out his duty with a great deal of sympathy and compassion. Well done. Would recommend your services to any one who is interested and looking for a funeral director.
