5 Steven Soult 29th Aug 2026

We as a family have had the misfortune to have had to arrange two funerals within an eighteen month period.
Gillott’s did a superb job on the first funeral so we had no hesitation in returning to Gillott’s.
The second funeral (for my father) was again conducted to the highest standard possible.
The attention to detail was incredible and we as a family felt that the funeral itself couldn’t have been any more respectful.
My dad would have been very pleased with his send off.

His ‘Artiste’ personalised coffin (The same coffin chosen by the Bonnie Tyler family) was just perfect, with engravings of all the things personal to him including his Derbyshire police badge, dominoes, cricket, golf and ‘Dad’ engraved into the coffin side.
Jo conducted the funeral to the highest standard we could have wished for and took care of absolutely every detail.

I would highly recommend Gillott’s to anyone who have lost a family member and are looking for the most respectful final journey for them.

Gillotts provided myself and my family great help following the death of my father. They were very patient and understanding, explaining and supporting us through the process. My father's funeral was extremely well organised by Joanne and the team. We can't thank them enough.

A thoroughly professional company in the way they dealt with my requirements. More than that though they were kind, considerate and caring. Exactly what you need in such circumstances. All of the members of the team I had contact with were lovely, but a special mention needs to go to Joanne who put together the required funeral package. Very thoughtful, patient and caring, nothing was rushed, and she was so thorough. A lovely person, who makes you feel at ease at a very difficult time. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gillotts Funeral Directors.

5 Keith Briggs 10th Jul 2026

5 Colin Bailey 5th Jul 2026

As a family we want to say we were treated with care and compassion from the beginning to the end. Joanne explained in detail what would happen and what we needed to do. Everything was perfect for us to say our goodbyes. We cannot thank you enough and we would highly recommend your service. Thankyou from us all.

5 Barry Ward 4th Jul 2026

Not having done this before, and not having any clear preference of funeral directors, my two siblings and I sat down with Joanne for an informal chat at the Eastwood office.

Immediately we were impressed with her calm professionalism, clearly explaining our options and pricing. There was no pressure or pushiness and we never felt patronised ……. so we decided that Gillotts would be the right choice for us.

Throughout the whole process, Joanne, Alison and staff simply took all of the organisation & logistics away from us, just gently nudging us occasionally when they needed our input.

On the day itself, at the church service and the crematorium, the day unfolded and proceeded like clockwork. All of the Gillotts staff conducted themselves with the utmost respect and dignity, taking away all of the pressure from ourselves. We just needed to be there and to deal with our own emotions in our own way as we said cheerio to mum. 
On behalf of the family I would like to pass on my sincere gratitude to Joanne and all of the staff. 

5 Vivienne Cheeseman 30th Jun 2026

5 Paula Goodall 2nd Jun 2026

Nothing was too much trouble for Joanne, Alison and the Team. They were all friendly, helpful, professional, mindful  and considerate throughout the process. We could not have been in better hands.

Paula, Richard, Robin, Val and Derek (in Sydney).
