We could not have asked for a better service from Lyms. The attention to detail, the support we received at the most difficult of times was outstanding. Thank you to Brian who helped so much and to all the team on the day. A very difficult experience made a little easier which we will never forget.

How much was raised for Arthritis research?
All the staff were brilliant, very polite and friendly.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for your positive review, we are pleased that you found the team at Radcliffe to be polite and friendly. I have forwarded your comment onto the team at Radcliffe and asked them to get in touch to let you know the current total for the donations. Our usual practice is to advise clients of the final total of donations received a month following the date of the funeral when they are sent to the charity on your behalf, this is because it is not uncommon for us to receive additional amounts during this time. I am sorry if this was not made clear to you at the time of making the arrangements but are glad that you found the rest of the service to be brilliant. Thank you.

Thank you for your positive review and recommendation.

5Jean Cleary26th Feb 2017
From the first time we met with Julia at the offices of A. W. Lymn until the funeral was over the service we received was professional but caring and personal. There was no pressure to have anything we did not want but we were pointed in the direction of what was available and introduced to others who could also help to make the actual day run smoothly. At a time when most people are not thinking as clearly as usual it is wonderful to have a lot of the stress removed by someone just saying "Don't worry. We can do that". I would recommend Lymns to anyone needing their services.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for taking the time to leave this kind and detailed review of the service you received from Julia and the rest of her team. We are pleased she was able to make the decision making process informative but without pressure, and that nothing was too much trouble for her.
We had excellent treatment both before and on the day of the funeral for which we thank everyone concerned.
