Services
Carrying on the family tradition is a way of life for us, our business is one of the area's oldest continuously operated funeral services (see below). We have a long and proud history of service to our community. All our attention is concentrated on satisfying the needs of our clients, we are flexible and responsive to your needs.
I would highly recommend Silletts Funeral Service. During such a difficult time, they made everything run so smoothly and seamless and nothing was a problem for them. They were so calming and supportive all the way through and are such a lovely family to deal with. Silletts organised both my parents funerals.
A prepaid funeral is a way of planning and paying for your funeral in advance to save you and your family time and money when the time comes. This can either be through a lump sum, or by monthly instalments. Having a prepaid funeral plan in place is the simplest, most caring and most practical way to remove the financial and emotional worry, as well as the responsibility, that unexpected funeral arrangements can bring.
Some people like to do things differently and do not require a traditional funeral service, often replacing this with a memorial service or event following the cremation. Direct cremation is simplest way to achieve this and is the most cost-effective option. Should you choose to be present for the committal at the crematorium, we can organise this.
We are able to provide options to suit all tastes including traditional coffins, coloured coffins and environmentally friendly wicker coffins and cardboard coffins. For the printed MDF and cardboard printed design coffins, countless designs are available. We also offer the option to design something one of a kind and personal.

I just wanted to send a note to say a special thank you to you and all the staff at Silletts for the exceptional care we have received over the past month. Indeed for the past 20 years.
You went above and beyond anything we could have asked for whilst pulling plans together. Dad, Mum, Andrew and Michael were all treated with absolute respect and cared for as if they were your own family. Your guidance and advice was pitched perfectly, you took the time to listen to us, talk with us, get to know us and we, in return, had absolute confidence that our family were in safe, caring hands. You kept in touch with us regularly and the level of service yesterday was, as I say, exceptional. You quietly, discreetly and sensitively guided us through the day and I cannot thank you enough. Your assistance gave us the confidence to cope with a difficult day, in a way that meant that, today, we feel content in the knowledge that we have done right for all.

I felt like my Grandma was comfy and well looked after, they are so welcoming & nothings too much trouble when you feel your asking alot, could you do this, do that and they do whatever they can x they told me she was all tucked in as I was worried. I went right before she left and he sprayed her with her favourite spray which was lovely x nothings too much trouble and i dont know how they do it everyday 💙 we all still write on her memorial page but seeing the word died at the top everytime is upsetting. get the same lump in my throat like that day. I'm not sure if this can be edited to passed, i think it seems more comforting. you dont notice these little things until you lose someone .. many thanks silletts

We recently lost a much loved family member. Being as we lived 170 miles away we relied very heavily on Silletts to make the arrangements for her funeral. Silletts dealt with everything for us with minimal fuss. Everything was done in a caring, compassionate, accommodating and professional manner.
We are so thankful for their assistance during a very difficult period for our family.
I realise a funeral is something that most people don’t wish to think about until the time comes but if you are reading this in that difficult time I really cannot recommend Silletts highly enough.
