Finalists for 5 Awards

We are absolutely delighted to be nominated finalists for 5 of the Good Funeral Awards this year!

It has just been confirmed by the Good Funeral Awards that the nominations we received have formally made it into the final stages of this year’s ceremony in London on Thursday 7 September 2017.

We still don’t know who nominated us but are so humbled and grateful for this recognition for our work with the bereaved.

We have been nominated for the Traditional Funeral Director of the Year Award, Most Eco-Friendly Funeral Director, Modern Funeral Director of the Year, Best Funeral Arranger for our funeral director Drew Rush and Lifetime Achievement Award for Clive Leverton. We have won an Award in the past and been finalists but never have we been finalists for so many categories.

The Good Funeral Awards are now in their sixth year and recognise excellence in the world of funerals, rewarding the best funeral directors and all associated services that are involved in creating memorable funerals. Wholly independent of the funeral profession, the awards are supported by consumer advocates the Good Funeral Guide and the Natural Death Centre.

“The Good Funeral Awards recognise exceptional service to bereaved people from all aspects of the funeral industry and supporting services. By progressing this far, Levertons has already demonstrated outstanding professionalism, empathy and a willingness to go the extra mile,” said Fran Hall, C.E.O of The Good Funeral Guide, joint organiser of the event

Brian Jenner, co-organiser, said: “The Good Funeral Awards recognise all those unsung heroes who work so hard for the bereaved and whose role can so easily be overlooked. Some of the nicest people in Britain work in the funeral business.”

James and the team were truly exceptional — kind, professional, and deeply considerate. They guided us through one of the hardest times with genuine compassion and understanding, taking care of every detail with respect and sensitivity. Our family felt fully supported, and my brother was treated with the utmost dignity throughout. We are profoundly grateful for their help and care.

Levertons directed my father’s funeral in March, and I cannot thank them enough for their compassion and professionalism. Their respect for tradition and sensitivity to our family’s wishes gave my dad the send-off he truly deserved. They made difficult decisions easier to face and gently reminded us to focus on what was most important. I’ll always be grateful for the care and dignity they brought to every part of the process.

Very good and professional service. On the day of the funeral James and his team were very good, nothing was too much trouble and they were very helpful throughout. We found Michael extremely empathetic and informative when organising our mum's funeral.

Carmel at Levertons made what was a very difficult time very easy to navigate. Carmel helped us organise everything and when required was always available to give advice and assistance. My wife’s funeral was everything we wanted it to be.

We engaged Leverton's Hampstead for the funerals of my mother in 2011 and more recently that of my father. On both occasions Levertons supported us to deliver beautiful, personalised funeral services. They were respectful and supportive throughout and helped steer us through some very sad times.

Deborah Rush at Levertons was simply superb. She handled my grief in an empathetic but not cloying manner . Deborah’s attention to every detail was impressive. Further , after a brief description of what qualities I wanted in a celebrant , Deborah chose an excellent one , Ruby Warnock. All my guests at the cremation commented on how well everything had gone.

The experience of losing a loved one is traumatic. The staff at Leverton & Sons were wonderful, and extremely helpful. They guided us through what is always a difficult process with kindness and care. Thank you.
