They is no words when you had to say bye to your wife and best mum for your children. Joanna help my family a lot to put everything together. And that was no easy She had to deal with people which English is no first language and she did very well with professionalism and attention to detail. I will recommend this director's to anyone, top class, thank you.

The Clifton office was opened in 1990 and has a warm and welcoming ambience, with one visitation room, one family room, a reception area and cold room facilities. The premises also has off-street parking at the rear.

In December 2017 Joanna Widdowson moved from the Aspley office to be the funeral arranger for Clifton. Joanna, who gained a diploma in Funeral Arranging and Administration (DipFAA) from the National Association of Funeral Directors in October 2018, makes sure all families have the best care possible.

The offices are open from Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm, although we are also available at other times - please call the telephone number and arrange an appointment. Calls are taken 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The branch covers all of Clifton and its surroundings including Barton in Fabis, Clifton Grove, Clifton Village, East Leake, Gotham, Kingston upon Soar, Lark Hill retirement complex, Silverdale, The Meadows, Thrumpton, Wilford and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you arrange a funeral?

You can arrange a funeral by choosing a funeral director who will help you organise all of the details. They can help you decide whether to have a cremation or burial and what type of service to choose, as well as additional options, such as music and flowers. You can find out what happens at a funeral and compare funeral directors on Funeral Guide.

What are disbursements?

Disbursements are additional costs for a funeral service that are paid to third-parties, such as florists, celebrants and burial fees. The funeral director will usually charge you for them and then pay the suppliers themselves.

How can I get help with funeral costs?

If the cost of a funeral is not covered by a prepaid funeral plan, or the estate of the person who has died, you may be able to get financial help from the government’s Bereavement Support Payment or from War Disablement Pensions, charitable funds or budgeting loans.
