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.”

Thank you so very much for your attention over the last few weeks and yesterday in conducting the funeral in such a very dignified way. Your driver was wonderful, taking care to calmly get us to all the venues, the Church, Crematorium and Reception in good time. Please too pass on our thanks to Brigitte for the beautiful coffin spray as it was the nicest I’ve seen.Working from a distance required good communication, and this funeral had its other challenges too, which you have handled so well.

A family priest we have known very long time recommended to our family to go to Leverton & Sons and have Lorna help us. From the start to finish, Lorna aided and assisted us. She was helpful and looked after us and my mother from the viewing to the funeral arrangements to the cremation. Her dignified approach supported us in these tough times and made it all very comfortable. She was with us every step of the way. My family thanks her for truly doing her best to allow my mother a peaceful departure that didn't allow us to strain my wife and I much.

I never had to arrange a funeral but with your help from registering Tony with you before he was repatriated through the whole process your expertise and kindness and patience were invaluable . The funeral went without a hitch you carried it out with dignity and respect you and your staff have shown why Levertons is and will always be a service that my family have always used and will continue to use and recommending Andrew was amazing he truly led one of the best services I have seen in a while and such a fitting tribute to Tony . So pass on my thanks to Andrew to your team and you for helping me and my family through such a tough and sad time in our lives .

From first contact, through to the service and after, I cannot fault the support we had from Levertons. At a very difficult and challenging time, we always felt we were in very safe hands. Thank you

From making the phone call to book funeral services to the very end of the process we were treated with kindness, respect and every request we made was met with ease. On the day all of the staff involved were very courteous and everything ran very smoothly, which make such a had experience much easier to bare.
