This was my first experience having to arrange a funeral. It was for our mother.
I had visited several funeral homes, a daunting experience. But it was at Swanborough, meeting Esther and Brian, that I felt most at ease. I felt understood and it was with great relief that our family placed Mum in their care. At all times our communications and requests were met not only professionally but with sincere compassion and respect. Swanborough is one of the few funeral homes I know also offering environmentally conscious choices.

Peter McCarthy, their suggested celebrant, and Esther, each visited us at our home in the days leading up to the funeral to talk through all the aspects of this most sensitive last rite of passage. The funeral service was both unique, as our Mum was, and deeply personal. We knew that evening, Mum had been given the very best and most loving send off and that this was due in no small part to the guidance of Esther and Peter. It is with genuine gratitude that I can unequivocally recommend Swanborough Funerals.
