    From our initial meeting, contact leading up to the funeral, day of funeral and aftercare James was very caring and compassionate making sure our every need was met. Excellent service

  • 5 Anne Millar 26th Oct 2025

    Throughout arranging Anne's funeral, and the funeral taking place everything was planned and conducted in an exemplary way, with every small detail being addressed. Nothing was too much trouble, and I was kept informed at every stage. Communication with everyone involved e.g. the minister, church contact and caterer, as well as the family, was wonderful, and friends attending the funeral have commented about how impressed they were about the support given to the family in an unobtrusive way. This is one of a number of occasions I have experienced their standard of service.

  • 5 Amy Johnson 24th Oct 2025

    Thank you Radcliffe’s for making a really difficult time much more manageable. From initial contact over the phone to meeting Ian, everything was dealt with professionally and with care. Ian was kind, caring and compassionate. He gave us options and wasn’t pushy. He was honest and helped us to make sensible decisions as well as working with us to make my dad’s funeral exactly how we wanted it to be. Everything was as we hoped it would be and we gave dad a send off he’d be proud of. Thank you to everyone at Radcliffe’s for your support during a sad time. 

  • 5 Liz Cormack 21st Oct 2025

    A BIG Thankyou to all staff at Radcliffe FS and especially to James for everything he organised for our Mums funeral service. 
    James was professional, he listened to our wishes and gave friendly, honest advice and support during this time. He was very understanding to our needs .
