What people say
★★★★★ After considering other options I employed Debbie’s services to look after my father following his recent passing.
Her knowledge & experience helped give me confidence that dad would be properly treated .
She generously shared her knowledge of the funeral process and provided helpful advice around the smaller but important details such as choosing a celebrant.
I chose to hold a small but intimate service for 20 people at her premises on Folly Farm followed by an on site buffet.
This format was well received by all of the attendees and was well managed by Debbie and her staff.
Given the qualit
★★★★★ Debbie and her team done a service for a good friend of the family , all I can say is thank you for giving him the send off he deserved. Debbie and your team are very accommodating and I would highly recommend them.
★★★★★ Debbie is an incredible lady- she was so respectful and I knew my mum was in safe hands with her. She really took the time to get to know us and made us feel very supported through the whole process. The prices were extremely reasonable and Debbie took a huge weight of our shoulder with all the decision making. I cannot thank Debbie enough for a truly beautiful service, so many people complimented the service and that’s truly all thanks to Debbie and the celebrant she recommended- Carol. She really went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. Debbie payed so much
★★★★★ Debbie and her staff have been so caring and supportive. Having never organised a funeral before I had many questions. Debbie didn’t rush me, she advised and helped make our funeral the best for my Dad. Forever grateful to Debbie and the team.
★★★★★ I would like to share my excellent experience of using Debbie Collins Independent Funeral Director.
Debbie first cared for my late husband following his untimely death in 2018 and did so with empathy and professionalism. Due to her gentle, caring nature and the exemplary service we received, I subsequently entrusted my mother-in-law into Debbie’s care in 2020 (during the pandemic) and later my own mum in 2022.
Throughout my experiences, I have nothing but praise for the way I was cared for alongside my late loved ones. I unreservedly recommend Debbie Collins to anyone requiring Funeral ser
