I've had the pleasure of working alongside David and Peter at Dunning Funeral Directors on a number of occasions, and it's always a pleasure.

Both are fantastic at what they do. Their attention to detail is excellent, and the care they show towards every family they support, and every person entrusted into their care, is evident in everything they do.

They understand that every person has their own story, every family is different, and every funeral should reflect that. Nothing is overlooked, and there's a real sense of pride and personal commitment in the way they approach their work.

Two genuinely lovely people who care deeply about getting things right for the families they look after. Always a pleasure to work with, and very happy to recommend them.

I have used the services at Dunning's twice personally in the past & in a professional manner. As an independent celebrant,

I was recently asked to look after a family, who have expressed their gratitude for the way the service for their loved one was managed from point of contact & all the way through until the service itself.

Well done to the whole team involved, you made such a difference to a grieving family.

We wanted to send our heartfelt thanks to David and his team for helping us and leading us through the most difficult time of our lives. The patience and compassion shown really helped ease our concerns/ anxiety and enabled us to create a very fitting and beautiful tribute to our granddaughter who was taken from us way too soon. At no point were we rushed in decision making about how to pull the day together. Instead David had done his homework on options for cremation and Celebrants before we spoke to ease our way. Space was made for us to meet up to make arrangements privately. David arranged everything for us once choices had been made and took much of the stress from us.

On the day of the cremation David had explained exactly what to expect so there were no unexpected surprises. The hearse was immaculate, as were the staff with the special touch of colour coordinated ties to suit our theme. The staff were all very respectful and looked after us every step of the way.

We could not have asked for anything more and the feedback from family and friends has been that they've never experienced such a beautiful service.

Thank you so much to David and team for helping to make our very difficult day so special.
