Very helpful and visited the house so the family did not need to go to the Funeral Director's premises. Thank you for your help.

Richard Tonelli 13th Mar 2024

Unfortunately A,W Lywn has degraded in service and lack of compassion. It is solely interested in the amount of money you can make rather than carting for the family or deceased. Along with the management having zero empathy or compassion. The embalmers lied on what they said there did saying they had cleaned and prepared the body for viewing and this wasn’t done. When complained to management, they didn’t care and just shrugged it off. Everything was for money. I wont use again. I will definitely be going to CO-OP funeral service next time. 

Lynn Sanders-Whittle 3rd Mar 2024

Excellent service, sympathetic, professional, not pushy…. Emma and Dominic are perfect :-)

    Mr Tonelli,
    I find it extremely disappointing that you have allowed three months to elapse before placing such an inaccurate review and making unfounded statements about the service provided by our family company.   I do not view this funeral as indicative of “didn’t care and just shrugged it off” and I would suggest that if the other reviews for this office are examined it will be clear that your comments and 1* rating are completely unjustified.

  • 5 Susan Bettesworth 16th Jan 2024

    From the moment I met Dominic of A.W.Lymn to arrange my husband's funeral I was impressed by his calmness and care, his professional manner and attention to detail. Everything was explained in detail and he kept me informed at every stage of the arrangements. I felt very supported during what was a particularly distressing time, and I can't thank him enough.


    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words, it was a privilege to be asked to look after your husbands service and I felt your choices of flowers and music really made the service special. Dominic.
  • 5 Jane Morris 14th Jan 2024

    Excellent doesn't seem enough praise for this absolutely wonderful service. Dominic made what was a real ordeal for me (my husband's death was unexpected) much easier than I thought it would be. He talked me through all my options until I felt comfortable with my choices and was so kind and respectful I really can't praise him highly enough. His 'team' was efficient and respectful and special thanks must also go to Lily, the celebrant, who gave a very moving address to send Rob on his final journey.

    I will forever be grateful.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    It was an honour to look after the service for Rob. Thank you for such a lovely review, I’m happy our team was able to make Rob’s final journey everything you had wished for. Dominic.

    Happy to recommend

  • 5 Ewa Michocka - Lowthian 2nd Sep 2023

    In what is the most difficult time in my entire life, the funeral director supported and guided me . Always incredibly compassionate, attentive. Nothing was a problem, highly professional and respectful. Responsive, regardless what time it was.
    They eased the load for me . Attention to detail was remarkable. The vicar conducting the service said that our funeral director was excellent.
    They made it possible to have a service we wanted. I felt that they looked after me and my husband. Everything worked well. They organised for specialist to deal with all music and videos and livestream of the service. The quality of it was second to none. And everything was done with utmost respect and care.
    I cannot thank them enough. In the times of pain and darkness it is good to know that there will be someone guiding you and making sure that I was ok . It wasn’t just about organising the service but also about each step all the way from the night I lost my husband.
    I would not hesitate to recommend AW Lymn . Thank you for everything you have done so far.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Dear Ewa. I thank you sincerely for taking the time to leave such a kind positive review. Feedback really does make a difference, and to read such heartwarming words really does mean the world to us. When we met initially it was obvious to me that we were dealing with a very special man, and it was only right that the service reflected what an impact he had on countless lives, as well as all he had achieved. It was an honour to guide you through a difficult time and knowing what a difference myself and the team have made has a huge impact on us. I know you were in Dominic’s thoughts on the day, and I understand he was able to watch the livestream of the service. Take care, and we will speak soon. Edward.
  • 5 Carl Portass 26th Aug 2023

    From start to finish they made this difficult time go smoothly, constantly keeping intouch with myself and putting my mind at rest.

    On viewing my late mum it was just like she was just asleep and the personal touchers were just perfect, as I hadn't told them entirely what mum was like.
    Emma and Dominic from start to finish were friendly and welcoming and I would like to thank all of the staff on the day.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Thank you for taking the time to write these lovely words. It was our pleasure to take care of you and your Mum and the service you created was a beautiful tribute to her. Dominic.
