Tanya and the team fully deserve the 5 stars. Nothing was too much trouble for the final goodbye to my footy mad husband, even down to the entrance music and the order of service. It’s the extra mile they go to that makes all the difference. BIG thank you to one and all.

Great service . We had never had to arrange a funeral before and felt unsure. I can honestly say we were instantly put at ease and helped throughout each stage from booking through to aftercare . We have no hesitation in recommending. The manager dealt with us on a personal level making it easy to make decisions and follow up.

We used the Bognor Regis office and Tanya, who dealt with all elements of the service for us, was faultless.
It was a personal and caring approach from point of making the arrangements right the way through to collecting the ashes.
Thank you.

From the first contact with the funeral directors everything was tailored to our needs and the requests in my dad's prepaid funeral plan. Quietly efficient, all our questions were answered. Communication excellent especially given a lot of it was done 'long distance'. The choice of celebrant for the service was spot on - he 'got' my dad perfectly.


Would recommend them without hesitation.
Response from Dillistone & Wraights Funeral Directors
We really appreciate you taking your time to leave some feedback for our branch. I am happy that the pre-paid funeral plan made it easier to arrange the service for your loved one and I am happy that the team looked after you and the family well.

Obviously always a difficult and sad time organising a funeral for a loved one. Tanya made a difficult time much much easier. She and Sarah and Paul were always there for us, professional, supportive and kind. Paul was with us at the interment and couldn’t have been better. All in all, it was a much better experience than I was expecting and I can’t thank the whole team enough.

We always appreciate receiving comments, it enables us to provide the right care for each family. Your comments will provide great encouragement to the team to keep doing their job to the best of their ability.
Rating 5.0
We were extremely happy with the care and advise given to us by the kind and professional team. They were very knowledgeable about all the different aspects and possibilities, and nothing was ever too much trouble, even when we had some fairly very last minute changes to some parts of our service.
We chose Dillistone and Wraights because when I did the initial ring around to get an idea of prices, the lovely office manager was very helpful and frank about their charges, and we liked the idea of a female Funeral Director to look after my mother-in-law. We were also put in touch with a kind and experienced celebrant, who did a wonderful job, and gave us a very personalised memorial.
In the end, they did us proud, and we had everything we could have wanted. We had the most beautiful service for my mother-in-law, as all who could attend or watch via the video links appreciated, and it all came within a budget that we feel was good value for money. Can’t recommend the team in Bognor Regis enough.
Response from Dillistone & Wraights Funeral Directors
We are very proud of our team and the care they give and it means the world when we hear from the families that we have looked after. It is comforting to know that the team were there to support you through this time and relieve some of the pressure through guidance and support.

Thanks Tanya and Sarah for a fantastic compassionate service at a fair cost. You were recommended to me by a friend and I would also definitely recommend. This is the second funeral I have to arrange during the past year, and your service was definitely best. It was very comprehensive, including a useful package of documents with prices following our face to face meeting so I could discuss with my sons; and it was wonderful to have your help with the celebrant, flowers and slide show. I look forward to your further help with the internment of ashes when COVID restrictions are lifted. Thank you so much for supporting us in a difficult time.
Response from Dillistone & Wraights Funeral Directors

We were greeted with sincerity and dignity and had our wishes listened to and discussed. Being the first time we have been involved in making arrangements for a funeral we were grateful for the advice and help. We were informed regularly as to what was happening and when, and on the day everything went very smoothly. Our thanks goes to all those involved especially Sarah who took our changes in her stride and remained calm, efficient and friendly.

Very caring reception in the office at Bognor. Attended to all the details with minimum of having to involve the family yet took into account all the family’s wishes. Unfortunate that the hearse was delayed due to road closure, but we weren’t rushed even though we arrived late. Staff took care of all the details. Would suggest if having a long journey to the crematorium the company allow time in case of unexpected delays. This was a 70 mile trip so likely to have odd delays which should be pre considered and extra time allowed. Can’t fault staff friendliness or consideration
Response from Dillistone & Wraights Funeral Directors
Thank you for your 5* review. We are very happy that you found our staff to be caring, friendly and considerate and we have taken on board your comment regarding the road closure on your journey. Thank you once again for your 5* review.
