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.”

We recently had a funeral with Levertons and as a family we were astonished by the impeccable service they provided. Their professionalism, support, dignity and overall knowledge was fantastic. Our family member Janet had pre paid her own funeral and this was a seamless service with no hidden fees. Deborah was so professional and polite and approachable that it made their service Ben better. Deborah's knowledge was second to none and made the whole process easier. Out family have been using Levertons for many years - over 25 years and this is why our family continues to to use their service..

I went with Leverton as I really had no idea where to start with planning a funeral, and a family member had used their services previously. Michael was enormously helpful at a very stressful time, making everything super easy for me when I had no idea how things worked. He was always at the end of an email with a quick reply whatever the question or request. On the day, the funeral service was really lovely and well run. All their arrangements went super smoothly and they accommodated whatever request we had. If you’re anything like I was (doing this for the first time, at a bit of a loss, and just wanting some kind help planning a good funeral) I highly highly recommend Leverton.

I cannot praise Leverton and Sons highly enough. The professionalism, organisation and empathy they showed in organising my mother's funeral was of the highest standard. There was incredible attention to detail and the service was flawless. A huge thank you to all involved.

I made my initial appointment with Lorna Walkden at Kentish Town Branch. My friend had passed very unexpectedly. Lorna made the whole Process easy for me to understand. Could not recommend Leverton & Sons enough.

Myself and family had exceptional service from Leverton & Sons. Very pleased and thankful for Lorna who helped guide me through the options with ease. Also much appreciation for the celebrant chosen for us Mr Andrew Pavlibeyi and the prompt and professional drivers. We would highly recommend Leverton & Sons services to anyone in need.

Lorna really made the whole expirience of organising my sons viewings and funeral very meaningful. She held me when my world fell apart and helped me piece together detailed tributes to honour my son Jamie. She was available in person, on the phone and via email when ever I needed. The funeral was beautiful. She made the hardest most painful time of my life very touching. Every detail was included and I felt guided and supported to make choices at my speed.

Leverton conducted both my parents’ funerals. Deborah is a consummate professional and their service was faultless throughout on both occasions. Thank you.
