Margaret Watkins 5th Oct 2023

Very kind sympathetic understanding. And very helpful in every way. Nothing is too much trouble. And you can ask question and they give the best answer to fit your needs. I dealt with four members and each one was great

About Us

Gallagher Family Funeral Directors is an independent family funeral director in Keighley, and have been serving the people and families of the town and its surrounding districts since 1993.

The business was established by David and Adele Gallagher, with the aim of becoming Keighley's first choice funeral director by maintaining a personal caring approach to all families of the bereaved. Their son, Sam, has recently joined the business sharing the same vision and caring values.

The Gallagher family aims to offer the highest level of care and attention with a flexible approach to individual needs by offering clear funeral options and transparent pricing.

Gallagher Family Funeral Directors are very proud to employ carefully chosen members of staff who show the care, respect and understanding that you would expect from a family business. Every funeral director is fully trained and qualified, obtaining industry recognised diplomas from the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD).

The compassionate staff at Gallagher’s all understand the difficult nature of funeral arrangements, but believe it is always worthwhile contacting at least two businesses, so you can compare the services they offer and all the costs involved, as no two funerals or funeral directors are the same.

The team at the funeral home in Keighley will listen to you and make you feel at ease, to try and to help make the process of arranging a funeral easier and more bearable.

You are welcome to visit the premises by appointment to meet the family, who will answer any questions you may have.

Call Gallagher Family Funeral Directors now to find out more about the services they provide and begin making funeral arrangements for your loved one.

    We received excellent service from Gallagher funeral directors. Sam Gallagher totally looked after us. He was professional, caring and guided us through the funeral arrangements. The family were totally looked after throughout the funeral. Nothing was too much trouble, very respectful.

  • 5 Sharon Mulderrig 18th Sep 2023

    I can’t rate the service we received highly enough. Special thanks to Paul he has been such a support every step of the way, myself and my boys have no words to express our gratitude to him, he made a very difficult time easier for us all, this is the profession he is meant to be in. We did Sean proud and so many people have said despite the circumstances it was lovely, unique and very special, this is thanks to Paul (and his recommendations including Scarlett the celebrant) and Gallaghers. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart

    The Gallagher Family made my experience, which could have been overwhelming and traumatic, into one which was calm and competent. Sam took me through every stage in a professional but friendly way, and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you to the entire team.

  • 5 Sean Emmott 24th Aug 2023

    I expected excellent service from David and his team, as I have dealt with them on a professional basis in the past. I was not disappointed. They went out of their way to give us a bespoke, unique service for my wife and were quick to understand the send off we wanted for her.

  • 5 Joanne Pullen 21st Aug 2023

    I genuinely cannot thank Gallaghers enough for the care and compassion shown to my family and I after the loss of my father.
    Paul especially has been there for us since the day dad passed - his support, professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. (Even sported a tie in dad's football team colours for the funeral!) Nothing was too much.

    Would highly recommend Gallaghers to help through these tough times.

  • 5 Julie Bates 24th Jul 2023

    Gallagher Family Funeral Directors  arranged my husband’s funeral they were warm, dignified, caring and professional. 


    At a time when you are broken, David and his team carefully carried us through the whole process and made sure everything was managed beautifully.

    The team supported us and provided us with a dignified, personalised and fitting service for my wonderful husband who I miss every day.

    On top of that, Michelle was incredibly gracious, warm and kind to our family. 

  • 5 Carl Payne 24th Jul 2023

    Helped us every step of the way organising everything perfectly. Special thanks to David and Adele.

  • 5 Bernadette Gill 17th Jul 2023

    From the first call to Sam the whole experience arranging the funeral was excellent. It didn't matter how many times i called i felt it was ok to do so. They explained the processes. Paul was the funeral director and when i was distressed called the coroner for me. The coroner called me back within minutes then Paul called me back to check not only that the coroner did follow up but that i was ok too. I felt they went above and beyond what i expected. They arranged the flowers which were beyond expectations and Sandra the celebrant truly delivered a eulogy that made the funeral a positive celebration of mums life and so many commented how they would like a similar service. Thank you Gallaghers. 

  • 5 Karen Crossley 17th Jul 2023

    We've had first rate service from Sam and his knowledge and commitment made planning my husbands funeral so much more easier. Nothing was too much trouble and helped make the whole process a lot easier to cope with.
