You don't have to make an appointment at our funeral homes. However, doing so will ensure that someone can be available to cater to your needs. When arranging a funeral, our Funeral Directors are happy to visit you in your own home, if required.
Third party funeral costs are additional charges which we will manage for you and attach to your single invoice. Get in touch with us to confirm costs and plan a funeral to fit your budget.
If you choose to arrange the funeral with us, you will be given the option of a complimentary Funeral Notice. We will set it up for you using the details discussed during the arrangements. All we need is an email address.
Dignity Funeral Plans let you pay for your funeral in advance and at today's price. It's a way of taking control of the unexpected, setting out the arrangements and limiting the costs by paying for the services included in the funeral plan upfront.

Absolutely first rate handling of our funeral arrangements. Hugely careful, professional and attentive staff managing the arrangements and looking after our needs on the day. It may be sad circumstances under which we worked with Barclays, but their staff genuinely made the actual experience as pleasant (or even enjoyable, if we can say that?) as it could have been. Thank you all so much.

The staff at Barclays are excellent. The two I dealt with Stephen and Georgia are first class .They couldn’t have been more compassionate and professional. They organised my mother’s funeral to the last detail and everything I asked for they made sure it happened. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Recently use Barclays to organise my grandads funeral, was so nervous as this was our first funeral we have had to plan for a family member. Georgia and her team made the process flawless they looked after the family and most of all my grandad throughout the whole process. From start to finish I can’t thank them all enough! The communication etc was super clear and my grandads service could not have been more perfect. Thank you, Roxy & the Nicol Family!
