The team were incredible in guiding us through the difficulties, from the very first moment of contact, they were empathetic, understanding and patient, till the last contact ensuring we had the future support we might need. I can't recommend these guys highly enough. If you are looking for an end of life arrangement of least stress to your loved ones, then i'd always suggest Distinct Cremations. Thank you again Kerry for all your help and assistance.

Distinct Cremations provided a professional service for my Fathers cremation. Every discussion I had with their representative Sarah, was helpful and supportive. She clearly explained the entire process and made sure we understood all of the options at each stage. Losing someone is very painful and to have someone take care of the cremation with all of our selected options was a great comfort. I have already recommended Distinct to my family and friends who are considering this type of cremation.

From the first contact we had with Distinct Cremations, they were compassionate, understanding and professional. Nothing was too much for them, making a difficult situation more bearable. Our contact, Grace was amazing. Would happily recommend them. Thank you

They were so caring and I had my doubts at first. So when my neighbour was very poorly. I discussed it with her and we agreed to go forward. So I rang them and from then I they put my mind at rest. When she passed away one phone call out of hours and everything was all it took. My neighbour was picked up in 2 hrs 30 minutes. This was around 2am. Then they helped me through every step of the way. The ashes were delivered to my door within 7 days. Everything was so dignified. I've enquired about mine when the time comes. Wish to Thank everyone for the service they gave me. The lady 79 years old involved had no children and no close family. Kind regards Kevin Gallagher

Cannot fault the excellent service received, all the employees are lovely, professional while friendly and compassionate. Highly recommend them and especially our director Maxine for making such a sad, difficult time/task easier to deal with.
