Services
Director, James Burrett DipFD, is a fully qualified Funeral Director, working in the funeral industry for the past 16 years and is assisted by an experienced team of staff. The business philosophy of Legacy Funeral Service is based on providing a personal, bespoke and efficient service to the community at a time of need.
A death must be registered within 5 days of a death occurring in England and Wales - this includes weekends and bank holidays and must be registered in the subdistrict in which it has occurred. In cases where distance presents a problem. Arrangements can be made with a Registrar more local to you to register by declaration, however this may cause a delay before essential documentation for the funeral is available.
Although it may sound alarming when you hear that the death of your loved one has been referred to the coroner, it's actually very common and nothing to worry about, with 45% of all deaths in the UK being referred. There are a number of reasons why this may happen. If there is a medical certificate, the doctor who signed this didn't see the deceased within 14 days before or after their death.
We offer inclusive funerals and simple cost effective economy funerals. Just explain to us your needs or budget and we will be pleased to help. In some circumstances we will allow you to pay for a funeral over a period of time and we will advise you on any grants that may be available. It can be a lot cheaper than you think.
This service offers a basic but dignified direct cremation without a traditional funeral service, allowing you to plan a memorial that is unique to you and your loved one at a fraction of the cost of a traditional funeral. Unattended Cremation, collection and hand delivery of cremated remains to a private address.

You would have to go a long way to find a funeral directors as caring and as compassionate as this family run business. They pulled out all the stops to make the heartbreak of losing our loved one an easy process for us and nothing was too much trouble for them, they went over and above their "call of duty" to give our loved one the service that we wanted. Thank you Tony and James you are wonderful.

We can’t thank James & his team enough for the service & funeral they organised and provided.
From the moment we contacted James & he led us through the whole process from start to finish we couldn’t fault a single thing.
The whole process was organised & dealt with in a very courteous, personable and professional manner.Nothing was ever too much trouble for James day or night & we had every confidence things would run smoothly under their instruction & guidance.
James & his team made one of the hardest days we’ve had to face that little bit easier to get through having everything arranged

The painful loss of my mum has been unbearable but James at Legacy’s has been absolutely incredible. I have received nothing but first class help with the organising and it has all felt so personal the ongoing support from him. Nothing is ever too much bother and he’s been available to listen to me, change my mind many times and also offered me a shoulder to cry on. Thank to you and your wonderful colleagues for just being amazing.

Legacy Funeral services have been truly amazing and I can’t thank them enough for everything they have done. At the age of 22 I never thought I would be planning a funeral for my beloved gran but James and his team at legacy made it so much easier talking me through everything and answering all my emails at random times of the day! For james and his team you can really tell for them it’s not just a job and they really care about doing the best for my gran and our family and have supported us through the whole thing.They carried out her/our wishes perfectly and provided us with the most amazing

The service we received from James and his team during this most difficult time can only be described as exemplary, professional and carried out with the utmost empathy. We appreciated everything James did for us. Nothing was too much trouble, even my random questions at stupid o'clock in the morning were answered honestly and promptly. One could say that James went above and beyond. And we knew our loved one was in safe hands with him. He really was a huge help during this very difficult and sad time. We have all forged a long lasting friendship and have "adopted" James as part of our family.

I have been blown away with the kindness and the compassion that I have received from James and his team from Legacy Funeral Services Ltd. I cannot recommend this service enough. Nothing was too much trouble. James made a very difficult job of arranging my late brother’s funeral so much more bearable.
From start to finish, James has been brilliant!! Even after my brother’s funeral James is still helping me and answering any questions that I have. I cannot “thank” James and his team enough for the care and support that has been given to me and my family!
They did my brother proud and gave

The kindness and compassion shown to me and my two sons by Legacy Funeral Services following the death of my beloved husband was outstanding.
James and Tony looked after us as if they were part of our family, and I shall NEVER EVER forget the immense comfort and support they gave us.
Nothing was too much trouble and I totally trusted them to look after everything for me.
The service was truly beautiful and I will be forever grateful to them for helping me through one of the most difficult days of my life.
It's actually impossible to find the right words to adequately express my gratitude to

James was absolutely fantastic from the moment we spoke. He is so kind and caring and nothing was too much trouble. He was always there to answer any questions I had even if it were a random thought in the middle of the night. | knew Mum was in safe hands with James.
He was so accommodating from the moment we first spoke right through to the funeral. He provides such a personal service, you don't feel rushed or like anything is too much trouble. He went over and above and made the whole process so easy for us all at the most difficult time of our lives. Everything went so smoothly and I didn't

Words are not enough to tell you how amazing James and Tony are, my sister and l were dreading walking into the office of this very small family business to arrange our dear mums funeral, l can honestly say that from the moment we walked through the door and as silly as it may sound but we were made to feel like part of the family, we were welcomed with open arms, nothing and l mean nothing was too much trouble for them, we walked into the office with a very heavy heart but came out smiling and reassured knowing our mum was being looked after by these two lovely guys, I'm sure that they would have
