Jackie was very professional in her approach but also caring and looked after us through the whole process from start to finish. It felt like she genuinely cared about us and our family,more than just a job.

Many thanks to Nigel and Megan for all their help and expertise in arranging Dad's funeral. Assured and safe pair of hands.
Although A W Lymn's head office moved to Robin Hood House on Robin Hood Street in 1977, many people in the area still refer to this office as "Lymn's on Bath Street".
The head office, built by fourth generation George Rose in the late 1970's, has several in-house funeral directors to help families with their funeral needs, and also houses most of the company's administration staff.
The funeral home is staffed by funeral directors Kevin Browne and Philip Wilson, funeral arranger Megans Rosier and Luke Mellor, and receptionist Lucinda Pallett.
The opening times are Monday to Friday from 8 am to 6 pm and Saturdays from 9 am to 12.30 pm. Staff are also available to meet with you after office hours. Please call the telephone number at any time to arrange a convenient appointment.
Besides the administration and reception area, the premises have a coffin showroom, family rooms, visiting rooms, cold room facilities, a full fleet of hearses and limousines, a vintage fleet, stone masonry services and a florist.
A.W. Lymn's head office serves all of Nottingham city centre and its surrounding areas including Bobbers Mill, Colwick, Hyson Green, Mapperley, Radford, Sherwood, Sneinton, St. Ann's, The Meadows and beyond.
A W Lymn is owned and managed by the Lymn Rose family. Nigel Lymn Rose, one of the company's directors, was president of the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) during its centenary year in 2005.

Mathew and his team at Lymns were first class with sensitive guidance to arrange the funeral and carry out on the day. For a sad day it was as good as it could be and would have no hesitation in recommending to others .
Matthew Lymn Rose replied
Anne, David & Barry. Thank you for placing your confidence in us. Despite difficulties ranging from geography, illness, and a queue of hearses on the day, I am really pleased that the funeral went as well as it did from your point of view. Given our relationship with Pete we wanted to put our best foot forwards, but hopefully it is no more than we would do for any client. Thank you.
