Outstanding service with genuine care. Simon from Candour Funerals was exceptional in every way. From our first contact, he was genuine, courteous, and deeply respectful. His kindness and generosity made an incredibly difficult time feel more manageable. Nothing was ever a bother—Simon followed up on everything, kept us informed, and was always contactable whenever we needed reassurance or guidance. His calm presence and sincere care meant so much to our family. We felt truly supported every step of the way. I cannot recommend Candour Funerals highly enough.

Simon was so professional and made the process of farewelling dad incredibly smooth and easy. Candour took care of everything with quiet aplomb and gentle, pleasant interactions, deep care and sensitive guidance. Mum felt listened to, the catering was excellent and they even managed to organise a bagpiper from the same regiment. We were able to relax and comfortably entrust this special final stage of dad’s life to strangers with confidence.

My husband Ron had been very unwell, but we truly thought we still had more time with him — time to talk, to prepare, and to hold on a little longer. But God had other plans, and in what felt like a single heartbeat, he was suddenly gone. I found myself lost, heartbroken, and unsure of what to do next. From the moment I made that first phone call to Simon at Candour Funerals, I felt a sense of calm and genuine care. Simon handled everything with kindness, patience, and understanding, making the process feel far less overwhelming during a time when nothing made sense. The cost was reasonable, and we were given choices that allowed us to create a beautiful farewell while staying within our means. The service was exactly as Ron would have wanted — heartfelt, respectful, and filled with love. We are so grateful to Simon and the Candour team for their warmth, support, and guidance. They walked beside us when we needed it most. I would warmly and confidently recommend Candour Funerals to anyone who finds themselves facing such a difficult time. Having people who truly care makes all the difference. Thank you, Simon, and thank you to the wonderful Candour team.

We could not recommend Candour more highly. Simon and his team were so professional, patient and supportive at a very difficult time. They led us through the process of planning a service that would meet our families specific needs. Candour were very understanding of what we were going through and were very comforting. They were very flexible and accommodated changes to plans right up to the service. Candour exceeded our expectations and ensured our service was a successful one that we will remembered forever more.

We can’t thank the Candour team enough for the care and consideration they showed in assisting us with the memorial service for our mother. Simon and Sameiko were there every step of the way. Their gentle and respectful manner was in abundance, and they were always thinking of us and what our mother would like. With their help we made it a celebration of her life which I’m sure, she would have been proud of. Thank you Simon & Sameiko for your professionalism and understanding.
