Free bereavement counselling for our clients with SAIF Care

At Levertons we understand that you may be experiencing grief and that the process of bereavement continues or indeed can start after the funeral takes place. Whilst we are unable to provide bereavement support ourselves, as our client we want to provide you with a free service that can help and we are proud to announce that we are partners with SAIF Care.

SAIF Care services are offered by friendly staff who are trained in counselling and bereavement skills and who will be able to listen and support you.

The Associate Counsellors from SAIF Care are highly skilled and qualified. They will be able to help you to understand your experience of grief, develop self-care, coping strategies and support you to deal with the challenges you may be facing.

SAIF Care is a bereavement service offered by funeral directors who are members of The National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF).

As our client, as long as you are over the age of 18, you can access a range of services for free including:

  • A freephone telephone helpline 0800 917 7224
  • Email support and information help@saifcare.org.uk
  • Up to six free sessions of supportive counselling by telephone, skype or face to face in your local area.

SAIF Care services are available to you from Monday – Friday from 9am – 9pm.

For more information please call us on 020 7387 6075 or contact SAIF Care directly on: 0800 917 7224.

Leverton showed me and my family kindness, compassion and understanding from the minute I picked up the phone. They helped us plan the exact funeral that we wanted. It was a pleasure to deal with such a professional team at a incredibly difficult time. My family and I cannot thank them enough.

I want to thank Carmel and the Levertons team for helping me arrange a beautiful send off for my mum. Planning a funeral while grieving is extremely difficult, but Carmel made the process so much easier. She was kind, thoughtful and caring throughout, and her support meant a lot to me and my family during such a difficult time.

We were treated well without any fault. Procedure was explained in details before the funeral and I felt comfortable.. The funeral was so well organised and performed smoothly, people attended commented so. I appreciate very much, thank you. Kimiko Kambe-Gang

Drew and his team at Leverton & Sons Ltd. could not have done more to take me through the process of organising my late twin brother's funeral; they were professional, yet understanding, empathetic and patient (this being the first funeral I have had to organise), and I felt helped every step of the way. The fact that we had to organise things 'long distance' as we are not local to where my twin brother lived (so over the 'phone and by email) was no obstacle to them. The funeral itself was just what I wanted. Thank you.

We used Leverton’s recently to take care of the funeral arrangements for our Mum. They were incredibly professional yet approachable at all points, and managed both the larger organisation and small details very well. Deborah was lovely to deal with and made us feel like we were in very safe hands, on the run up to the funeral and indeed on the day itself when everything went perfectly, just as we had hoped. Her local knowledge meant that her recommendations of funeral location, florist, wake venue and celebrant all proved successful too and just right for what we needed. Very happy to recommend. Many thanks.
