It starts with a phone call

Arranging a funeral with Gallagher Family Funeral Directors starts with a phone call, at any time of day or night. If you feel we might be the right people to support you, the first thing to do is get in touch. We will ask you a few simple questions and then arrange a meeting with a member of our team.

Arranging to meet us

How would you like to meet?

Choose the option that suits you best and we will start the conversation.

Choose how you would like to meet and we will put your message together for you.

What happens at the meeting?

We can organise almost everything at the first appointment, which takes approximately one hour. We prepare as much paperwork as we can in advance, so when we meet we can spend our time understanding your needs and talking you through your options.

We can then book or arrange everything you would like, but there is no hurry. We always plan things at your pace, so if you need more time to prepare, process or make decisions, that is what we will do.
