Guide to Funeral Directors in Leeds

Modern Leeds developed from a burgeoning mill town during the industrial revolution to become the UK’s third biggest city. With a population of 700,000, it boasts a diverse economy, making it one of the fastest growing national producers. It is well provided with four universities, many museums including the new City Museum, and theatres including the Grand Theatre.

Leeds comprises a wide selection of communities, although the majority of the population identify as Christian. Three per cent identify as Muslim which reflects the average across the country. Leeds also has a large Jewish community. There are over 75 ethnic groups including Pakistani, Indian, Asian, Bangladeshi and Chinese. Therefore funeral directors in Leeds are likely to have experience providing services for a wide range of religious beliefs and cultural traditions.

There are over 60 funeral directors in Leeds and the surrounding area, with a wide distribution throughout the city and its suburbs. All areas are well provided for and it should be straightforward to source funeral services conveniently.

There are three large crematoriums for Leeds funeral arrangements: Lawnswood on Otley Road to the north of the city; Cottingley on Elland Road to the south west and Rawdon on Leeds Road to the north west.

Leeds has over 20 cemeteries, spread in and around the city, although many of the older ones are now full.

How much does a funeral cost?

The cost of a funeral depends on where you are in the UK and whether you choose a burial or a cremation. Natural burial is becoming increasingly popular, but can often be more expensive than burial in a traditional cemetery. The cost of coffins, flowers, catering and transport also varies a lot. There is also an almost unlimited list of options for personalising a service, such as professional funeral singers or a motorcycle-hearse. You can compare the price of funeral directors on Funeral Guide.

I found myself needing to arrange my friends funeral and Carden and Sons were recommended and I honestly don't think I could have found a better service!😃 There was no 'hard sell' or suggestions for other extras. Micheal listened to what I would like and made it happen the way my friend would have wanted!😃 I had absolutely NO idea what I had to do regarding the paperwork and legal stuff but Micheal went through it all with me and made the process SO much easier, he even went to Preston and brought my friend back to Leeds so I didn't have to worry about getting him back home!😃 I was also grateful for the respect shown to my friend, when I visited the Chapel of Rest Micheal knocked on the door and bowed before entering and on the day of the funeral he gave such respect by walking in front of the cars even though it was freezing and again bowed out of respect before getting in ther car, these small signs of respect mean so much to the family and friends!😃 I honestly can't thank Carden and Sons enough for the great send off they gave my friend and would highly recommend them to anyone!😃❤
