They were lovely from the minute they answered the telephone with me sobbing, to the actual day, checking on me and making sure I was ok. Very professional but genuinely caring too. They talked me through options and explained it all so clearly. A difficult process was made much easier with them on board.

    Very helpful to us. Talked us through options clearly. Recommended celebrant and venue for funeral tea. Both excellent. Contacted Council to check on issues for us. All done with patience, support and consideration.

  • 5 Katherine Emmerson 24th Jul 2023

    From the first call, the staff at High Heaton Funeralcare have been so caring, helpful and sensitive, especially Liz who had so much empathy and time for us. Kevin walked us through the funeral process step by step, providing unending support and understanding and helping us at a very difficult time. Nothing was too much, they quickly answered calls and questions with enough detail but not too much to overwhelm us.
    The support from the financial hub was unexpected but enormously helpful too.
    We would highly recommend High Heaton Funeralcare to anyone.
