Following the very unexpected passing of our young son, we were feeling overwhelmed.

Penny's compassion, warmth and sensitivity helped get us through an extremely difficult period.

She and her team organised the service beautifully. This meant that on the day everything went smoothly and we gave our adored boy the best send-off.

Thank you.

Penny and the team were outstanding and handled all aspects in a professional but still personal and thoughtful manner.
I cannot recommend them highly enough and you can place your trust in them.

We are very pleased that we chose Safe Hands for my sister's funeral. Penny and Helen were kind and supportive throughout the process. We decided to have the service in the chapel on the premises as we loved the peaceful atmosphere and I'm sure it was the right decision. The celebrant chosen by Safe Hands was also extremely good.
Thank you Safe Hands

Penny and her team provided a truly professional and caring service. Their attention to detail ensured that my Mum’s funeral was perfect in every way.
I would highly recommend Safe Hands to anyone. Having used other funeral directors before, I can confidently say that the service, compassion, and support we received from Penny and her team was second to none.  Thank you for making a difficult time so much easier for our family.

My daughter passed away in March and her husband and I visited Penny at Safe Hands to see if she could arrange her funeral. Her compassion towards us was evident from the moment we sat down to chat. The funeral was required to be carried out at relatively short notice as family members had a long arranged holiday due.

Penny took this in her stride, made all of the arrangements within just over a week and the 'Celebration of Life' and wake went off without a hitch.

I can, without doubt, recommend Safe Hands to be just that, 'safe hands' should you be in the unhappy position to need their services.

Thank you Penny.

Losing a loved one is incredibly difficult, especially someone young like my brother at 41. Penny and her amazing team from start to finish were nothing short of exceptional! Penny really is caring and compassionate towards the deceased and families. I really hope I don’t need to arrange another funeral anytime soon but if I do, I know exactly who I’d choose! Thank you Penny and team 🕊️

We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Penny Adam and the team for their exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism during such a difficult time. From the very first moment, they guided us with kindness and understanding, helping to ease the very difficult  situation of making arrangements while we are grieving. This was the second time we have used safe hands . 




Every detail was handled with dignity and respect, ensuring that the service truly honoured our mums life. Their patience, clear communication, and genuine empathy meant so much to our family, and we always felt supported and reassured throughout the entire process.




We are deeply grateful for their dedication and the comfort they provided. Their thoughtful approach made a challenging time more manageable, and we will always appreciate the love empathy and care they showed to us and our mum . They again went above and beyond to ensure our mum had a dignified farewell. We don’t just see them as funeral directors . They are friends  . And we can’t thank them enough for everything and will forever be grateful to them .

I am so pleased we chose Penny at Safe Hands to arrange and guide us through my brother's funeral. Penny was always on hand to give advice and answer any questions I had and not a single thing was too much trouble. She was patient, kind and caring. The Order of Service was very appropriate for my brother and the flowers which were two hand tied bouquet's which met in the middle and looked like one arrangement for the coffin was so substantial and truly amazing. I would recommend Safe Hands to anybody. I and my family would like to thank Penny so much at such a sad time.

5 Heather Peters 5th Mar 2026

We chose Penny and her team to look after Mum because of the positive reviews. We were not disappointed. Her kindness and understanding helped immensely.

Mum wanted a private, simple send off which is exactly what she had.

By pre -arranging some things before Mum passed, it meant that when it happened, it was easier to cope with.

Joe the Celebrant was perfect on the day.

Thank you

5 Fred Underwood 1st Mar 2026

Penny and her team were brilliant. Everything was done with efficiency and compassion. The chapel was perfect for a small funeral and everyone remarked on how lovely it was. All the details, such as Joe the celebrant and the beautiful flowers made the whole experience one we would recommend to others.

5 Angela Munnoch 11th Feb 2026

Safe Hands Funeral Services was suggested by a friend and I am so pleased we chose them. From start to finish they made a very difficult time a lot easier. They have a beautiful and calming space to have their meetings where time is spent discussing options of funeral location, flowers and everything. The process was new to me, but everything was made so perfectly clear. Communication was always easy and I really would recommend them. Its a difficult time, but Safe Hands made it easier.

5 Naomi Robinson 10th Feb 2026

From the moment we contacted Safe Hands Funeral Directors and spoke to Penny, we felt reassured and looked after.

Penny really listened carefully to what we wanted, offered helpful guidance without ever pressuring us, and handled every detail and looked after our dear mum with complete dignity & care. The team went above and beyond to make sure the service reflected our loved one perfectly, everything was exactly how we had envisaged - It was complete perfection. We couldn’t have asked for a more kinder, personable or professional support.

With the added support of Southlands Barn, our beautiful Mum and our family have a service we can cherish and be proud of forever in celebration of her life and the memories we get to keep.

I cannot recommend Penny and the Team involved at Safe Hands enough. Thank you for turning our ideas and requests into something truly amazing and guiding us through a very difficult time.

5 Sally Thorne 14th Jan 2026

From my first contact Safe Hands were amazing. The setting chosen Cisbury Barns worked really well although very cold .
Penny and Adam are kind,sensitive, and just lovely. Their manner is dignified, they make sure all personal wishes are carried
out . I can honestly say I couldn't find any fault with their service at all . For an individual service please feel confident in using Safe Hands amazing thank you so much both of you .
