We chose Benedict for my husband Dave’s funeral on 16th January and we are so pleased with our choice. From arranging the funeral, speaking with Nigel our Celebrant at home and on the day, the staff were caring, considerate, respectful, professional and helpful. Nigel’s eulogy was beautiful and Dave would have been so pleased and proud of all the kind words, several people commented that there was so much love in the room. The day went off without a hitch from beginning to end and the service was absolutely beautiful. What could have been a very difficult day was, due to Benedict’s care, o

We would like to express our utmost gratitude for the highly professional and compassionate service we received from Benedicts for the funeral of Michelle Strachan, following her sudden tragic demise in an RTC on the 5/01/26. Nigel our celebrant & funeral director received high compliments from many of the mourners for his grounded & sensitive service, which was both reflective & wise, on what was a highly emotional and poignant day for us as a family. From our first enquiry to our parting handshake we received nothing but the most empathetic and patient service from Benedicts, the most profes

We would recommend Benedict to anyone. We are not local so it was difficult arranging our brother/brother in law's cremation, that was until we walked into Benedict's. Everyone was welcoming, kind, compassionate, helpful and respectful from beginning to end. Nigel delivered a wonderful service that everyone said totally captured our brother/brother in law in every way and we agree whole heartedly. Thank you all so much for making a very stressful time so much easier. We can't thank you all enough.

On behalf of myself and family I would highly recommend this wonderful Funeral Directors following the funeral of my husband on 10th December. From my first contact with Nigel I knew we were in safe hands and the arrangements and service were perfect. Nigel is so kind and understanding of the grief we were going through and ensured everything was arranged for us without any difficulties. His reading of the Eulogy was perfect and he helped us through this very sad time. Thankyou.
