I am so grateful for the help and support I received from Penny and others in her team. At a time when I felt so un-sure I also realised that in fact I had experts supporting me. I can't thank them enough.

Safe Hands Funeral Services was recommended to us. We are so pleased we listened to that advice as the recommendation was well founded. As soon as we met Penny we knew we had made the right choice. She was very caring and kind. Penny and her team were very thoughtful in their approach to constructing a wonderful and memorable ceremony for my mother. The flowers, coffin and service sheets were all beautifully prepared with great attention to detail. In a time of great sadness they created a relaxed and cheery environment. As a family it was just what we wanted - a celebration of my mother life without dwelling on the sadness of her passing. Our experience exceeded a expectations. Thank you Penny.
