Very professional and sympathetic to our needs from the day we met all the way through to the end and recommended an excellent Celebrant. Under the circumstances it was a beautiful day all round, so thank you all at Taylor Funeral Directors. Your professional service and empathy shone through.

The whole team at Taylor’s were professional and sympathetic in every way possible.
Ann Dolphin 26th Oct 2018
Approached several local directors with exact requirements for quotes. Taylors were the cheapest and as we had no experience with any of the others we chose them. They were excellent from the start to the finish, we could not fault them anywhere. Very professional with a very good personable approach. Having arranged five previous funerals in other parts of the country they were there at the top. So not only did we end up with superb service but Marie Curie Hospice received a large four figure donation that represented the difference between the dearest and Taylor's quotes. Superb outcome.

As members of the local community they serve, Sam and his team are committed to support the bereaved, from the moment they make that first, very difficult phone call – day or night.
The funeral home on Station Approach is a comfortable and reassuring space to talk about your loved one and feel supported. Happy to arrange home visits to families who would feel reassured by this, the premises also has a peaceful chapel of rest for quiet contemplation, while bereavement counselling is also available.

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.
Read moreWhat 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.
Read moreHow 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.
