Gillotts Funeral Directors

5 Luke Mcgibney 22nd Nov 2024

We cannot thank this family-run funeral directors enough for the outstanding service they provided. The attention to detail was impeccable, and they truly went above and beyond to make a difficult time as smooth as possible. Zowie in the office was incredibly professional, with a warm and welcoming attitude that never failed to bring a smile to my face, even during such a challenging period. Joanne, one of the family owners, was so accommodating, and the service itself was filled with joyful moments as we shared fond memories through heartfelt testimonies and visual tributes. If you’re looking for a celebrant with a lovely nature and excellent delivery, I highly recommend Claire Gore.

Thank you again from the McGibney and Collier family.

The ultimate professionalism, compassion and attention to detail shown by every member of Gillotts' (from Joanne, Claire and the rest of the personnel), was flawless.
You can imagine that at the most difficult time of your life, in organising a funeral, the majority of people will be lost and trying to make sense of the whole situation is very hard.
Gillotts' take all of that away and guide you through every step with kindness and sensitivity. The vast array of options and choices we had helped us to customise my late wife's funeral in such a way that it was tailored to suit her lifestyle and personality..
On the day of the funeral, (the stage everybody dreads), was conducted with such dignity by Gillotts', I had comments later from the large number of people who attended that it was the best funeral they had attended. I appreciate it can sound like a strange comment to make on such an occasion, but it has helped on my family's journey through this difficult time of acceptance of losing my wife.
On a final note, I do know that when it is my turn to depart this earth, Gillotts' will be organising my funeral as I know the majority of the distress of organising this will be taken away from my children.

5 Elaine Smith 30th Aug 2024

Such a warm professional approach from Joanne from the moment we walked in. We didn’t feel rushed in anyway and Joanne patiently listened to what we had to say about my Dad. There was no pushing for spending lots of money it was all our choice on what was wanted and Joanne guided us through the difficult and stressful process. It felt like they took over for us and did everything so we didn’t need to worry. Anthony on the day was Amazing and guided us as a family through the day. He was very warm, kind and very professional and we as a family really appreciated this. We would definitely recommend Gillott’s as a funeral director 

5 Louise Welch 27th Aug 2024

Joanne, Alison and team were amazing. They listened to everything that we wanted for my Dad and nothing was too much trouble. They showed such kindness and compassion. They did my Dad proud, especially with little personal touches like writing "gone fishing" on his memorial plaque as Dad loved fishing without us even asking. We wouldn't hesitate in recommended them to anyone in the future. Thank you for going above and beyond, we will forever be grateful. Louise and family x

Gillotts offered a very compassionate and personal service throughout the whole process. Hannah Chapman is a tremendous asset to the Business, very professional and efficient but also able to show kindness and empathy at such a difficult time. We wanted a personal service to celebrate the life of our loved one and it was exactly that.

We have no hesitation in recommending Gillotts in the future.
