As soon as Barclays were appointed as the funeral directors for my Mum they provided an extremely efficient and thoughtful service. Georgia took me through all the funeral options and when everything was decided the execution of the plans were flawless. The team made a very difficult time easier to manage. Communication was excellent and I would thoroughly recommend Barclays at Davidson's Mains.
Response from Barclays

We dealt with Davidsons Mains branch of Barclays Funeral Services.
We were looked after by Georgia when making arrangements, and Graham on the day of the funeral.
From start to finish we were treated with respect and compassion and offered guidance when requested.

The service from Barclays was very good, at a difficult time emotionally and during the impacts of Covid they provided just what support was necessary. The lady I dealt with directly was very polite and professional when dealing with my Mother and I. The team on the day with the cars etc were all top notch.
I would have no qualms recommending Barclays to anyone who may need the services of a Funeral Director.
Response from Barclays
It means a great deal when people take the time to share their experience and to highlight individuals in the team who have made a difference.

At a difficult time we were shown such empathy and dignity by everyone involved. We were guided gently on our journey to give our Dad a beautiful service from start to finish. It gave us peace knowing there was someone to help when we were lost. Thankyou for a seamless service given with compassion. Finally thankyou for looking after our Dad until he was at rest.
Response from Barclays

This was my first experience of Funeral Directors and arranging a funeral, what was a scary and emotional task was made very easy by the staff at Davidson Mains. They provided me with regular updates throughout the process and helped explain exactly what would happen. The staff recommended a Celebrant called Bill, based on my description of my late Father - he was absolutely fantastic and portrayed my Father very well and made the funeral interesting for all. It was a painfree experience, which helped so much. Highly recommended.
