Wish I could give more than 5 stars to this excellent company. Their customer service is phenomenal. Sue and David were so supportive and caring and all the staff so professional and respectful. All the little touches made me feel that they knew my Dad personally and Sue was full of lovely ideas for the funeral and even went the extra mile of obtaining permission from Glasgow Rangers FC for us to use their crest in the Order of Service. Cant’t thank them enough for making the organising of a stressful event much easier for my family and I. Would highly recommend them if you want a caring personal service.

At a time when emotional support is needed, Dignity provides this support.
A first-class service which puts your needs at the forefront of the proceedings.
This is a difficult time for relatives. Dealing with bereavement and all the administration that a death incurs is never easy. Dignity provides the support needed at this difficult time.
The staff I dealt with were courteous, respectful and understanding.

We have used Layton Funeral Directors previously and the attention given to us by all the staff following the loss of my mother was exemplary. From the initial phone call through to the service everything was perfect. Thank you.

Can’t fault Layton funerals from start to finish. Staff are immensely sympathetic towards the plight in which you find yourself in whenever you ring or call in person. When planning the funeral no stone is left unturned regarding every detail. If you have any specific requests, like I did, they try their best to make that request happen, in my case, it did happen! I would definitely recommend Layton funerals. They made what is generally a very somber moment much easier to get through. Thank you very much for all your hard work Layton funerals.

We decided to use Layton Funerals as it was very local to us. From our very first visit we knew we had made the right choice. The staff were wonderful and took us through everything step by step. Any queries we had were always swiftly answered whether by telephone or email.
The funeral itself was just as we had wanted it and I am sure as my husband would have wanted it too!
A special mention also for the florist who after discussion with Layton Funerals produced the most beautiful tribute which was exactly what we wanted.
Many thanks to all who made a difficult and sad time so much easier.
Response from Layton Funeral Directors

My Brother in Law Mr William B. Todd died on 27 June & my husband & I were looked after by Colin.

He was so warm and friendly and immediately put at ease in a very emotional time…

I would definitely recommend Layton Funeral Directors to anyone wishing to say goodbye to relatives with care & attention.

Very good service. I had to arrange a cremation from a distance away and they helped make this possible. The lady that did it all for me was very helpful and sorted out all the forms and arranged everything. It was very straightforward and they made it easy. It was all managed over the phone and the internet.
