Louise supported us through the sad journey of arranging a funeral - it made the whole process much easier to know we were in capable and sympathetic hands

Forgetting the funeral flowers on the hearse is unforgivable however the service was lovely and the family appreciated Louise’s kindness.
A.W. Lymn's Long Eaton office is located at Lime Grove in Long Eaton, which is in peaceful surroundings inside the cemetery gates at West Park.
The site was purchased from Dick Webb funeral service in 1981 and opened as an A. W. Lymn funeral home in June 1982.
The building was the local public mortuary and features an unusual copper roof. As well as a large reception area, the premises features family rooms, visiting rooms, funeral cars from A.W. Lymn's fleet and parking on the outside, and it was completely refurbished in 2013.
The funeral home is run by funeral director Louise Bramman and is open Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm. If you need assistance or to meet with a funeral director after hours please call the telephone number, which is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The branch covers all of Long Eaton and its surrounding area including Breaston, Castle Donington, Chilwell, Draycott, Hathern, Kegworth, Sawley, Sutton Bonnington, Toton and beyond.
Nigel Lymn Rose, along with his sister Jackie and his son Matthew, manages A. W. Lymn The Family Funeral Service, ensuring all families receive excellent care at all times.

Matthew Lymn Rose replied
We are sincerely sorry that the delivery of the flowers was delayed, and that they had to go directly to the Crematorium. This should not have happened, but the kindness of your Grandmother to our staff, and when we delivered the apology letter that evening confirming the flowers would be free of charge was appreciated. Thank you for the kind comments about Louise, , we are pleased that everything else went well and was as your family had wished it to be.

Very poor service lack of sound in chapel
Lack of flowers on coffin
Matthew Lymn Rose replied
I am very sorry that you feel we provided a very poor service as I understand from both the funeral director Louise and the celebrant Richard that they were liaising and in contact with you most days before the funeral to tailor the service to your requirements. I note that there was a problem with the sound system in the cemetery chapel and that Richard had to play the music on his iPhone rather than there be no music at all. I also note that the flowers were not placed on the coffin or taken into the chapel as would have been our normal practice but that this was on the instructions of your brother that you relayed to us. I do hope that the rest of the service we provided was satisfactory and I really regret that you have thought it appropriate to mark us down to two stars as a direct result of the two matters that you mention.

Good, would recommend.
A.W. Lymn, Long Eaton Team replied
Thank you for your positive rating and recommendation, if there is anything more we could have done to achieve a 5* rating we would welcome this feedback from you. Thank you, Louise.

Sorting my father's funeral was very easy with the support of the staff at Long Eaton. Julia was very sympathetic, helpful and very efficient. The celebrant they recommended was lovely and could not have chosen anyone better. Louise was very understanding when myself and my daughter visited dad in the chapel of rest and the cup of tea was very welcome.
The day of the funeral was very relaxed and everything taken care of. The service was just the right mix of remembrance and celebration of dad's life and Donna was so lovely and helpful on the day.
Thank you all for looking after us and would highly recommend your company.
A.W. Lymn, Long Eaton Team replied
It was our pleasure to take care of you, and Louise and Donna join me in thanking you for this kind review. Julia.

5James Minns1st Sep 2024
On behalf of all of my family I would like to say a big thank you to all at AW Lymn for their first class professional services from the moment I walked into their door at Long Eaton to the final farewell at Bramcote crematorium . A special mention to Louise Bramman and Keith Brown who did everything possible to make sure all went smoothly. At 74 years of age it is the first time I have needed to consult a funeral organisation and I would, without any doubts, recommend AW Lymn to anyone unfortunate enough to be placed in my position. Thank you so much!!
A.W. Lymn, Long Eaton Team replied
Thank you James to you and your lovely family for these very kind words. They are very much appreciated and it was my pleasure to help. Louise.

From start to finish a professional caring service. Louise did a fantastic job of making sure the funeral was exactly as we wanted it, keeping in contact throughout.
The car drivers/coffin bearers were smart and helped with my aunt's wheelchair.
Totally recommend - thank you

Having know you and Peter for many years I felt honoured that you asked me to take care of his funeral and I'm glad you were happy with everything the team here did for you both. Louise.

5Jenny Farmer25th Mar 2024
Louise was fantastic, everything went well with Mums funeral planning. I requested that Mum have a haircut, she hadn't had one for months, and Louise did a lovely job.
I request some flowers with blue in them..amazing blue roses with pink and white, looked fantastic. Can't fault the care that was shown to both Mum and family.
A.W. Lymn, Long Eaton Team replied
I'm so glad that even from my wheelchair I was able to cut and style Mum's hair for you. I was only sorry that this meant I was not able to be with you on the day but am glad that Kirby took great care of you. Thank you again, Louise.
5Lisa Inger25th Mar 2024
On one of the hardest days of my life, saying goodbye to my big brother A W Lymn made this a little easier. They were professional, respectful and very mindful at the same time. I'd highly recommend their services if you are unlucky enough to need this service. Thank you.
