"From the moment we walked into the Arnold branch of Nottingham Funeral Directors we new we had found the right company to look after ‘dad’.
Leonie showed kindness, care and compassion from our first meeting. We asked her to bring Bella her bereavement dog to our house to meet mum while we discussed funeral plans and this beautiful creature helped us feel relaxed and calm while we made the arrangement.

Nottingham funeral services took care of everything and guided all along the way.

On the day of the funeral everything went exactly to plan, with Tom taking care of everything which made saying goodbye to ‘dad’ so much easier.

We would like to say a massive thank you the Leonie, Tom , Bella and all at Nottingham Funeral Service.

We would highly recommend them to look after your loved one at such at such a difficult time in our lives."

"After losing both my father in law and mother in law unexpectedly just before Christmas, Nottinghamshire Funeral Service and especially Leonie have been brilliant. Never having sorted anything like this before Leonie has organised everything with the upmost respect, care and attention. Dad just happened to have kept one of their flyers amongst his paperwork and we are so pleased he did. We would like to express our sincere thanks to Leonie and Tom for being so patient, kind and helpful, nothing has been too much trouble. We will definitely use them again in the future, and will recommend them to all our friends and family."

Chambers family 2023

"In July 2022 we lost our remarkable Mum. Nottingham Funeral Service were recommended to us so we contacted them. It was such a sad time for our family as you can well imagine. Emma became our contact and nothing was too much trouble, she treated us with respect and kindness throughout the whole process from beginning to end and guided us through.
Then in February of this year we lost  our Dad and didn’t hesitate in contacting Emma again.
For Dads funeral again Emma was outstanding going over and above what you would expect. Because she knew us as a family she knew what we wanted for Dad and yet again did us proud even as far as wearing Sunflowers as a mark of respect for our Dad who Emma had obviously met when arranging Mums funeral.
I would highly recommend them. It is a family run concern which really comes through.
Just exemplary.
Can not thank them enough."
