My family lost my wonderful mum Carol Binfield on the 8-11-25. We chose John Weir to look after her. Everyone was kind, compassionate, respectful and understanding. They gave advice but listened when we decided against their advice. They called just to check on how we were doing and kept us informed of everything throughout. Thank you to the whole team but mostly to Kerry who dealt with my mums funeral, Anna who took many of my calls, the drivers on the day of the funeral (30-12-25) you all helped at such a difficult time in our lives.

Made my mum look absolutely stunning and smothered her in perfume just how she liked. So lovely to deal with.

I would highly recommend using John Weir and have done for past loved ones. My brother, Glenn, was cared for by Julia who did an amazing job and John himself came for a lovely chat when we went to view him. Such a relaxed but professional company that makes such a heart breaking time feel easier to manage. My brothers twins daughters were guided and helped with such compassion and understanding from start to finish and for that, I am truly grateful. We would never use any other funeral director .
