From day one Liam and his team took fantastic care of my brother in such unprecedented Covid times, Brian was treated with dignity and great care and they guided me through such a difficult time with so much help and advice.
The service they provide is second to none and the time taken by their celebrant Julian Hitchens to gather so many memories was brilliant and he made the ceremony perfect. Their florist Sheila even managed to incorporate my brother's woolly hat that he always wore in the truly beautiful floral spray that sat on top of his coffin.
Thank you so much Southgate and Roberts.

Liam was a very nice, kind man to work with - very patient during these hectic Coronavirus days.  We look forward to having a memorial service at his funeral home when circumstances allow us.  

5 Emma Bowyer 27th Mar 2020

I cannot thank Liam and all of the team enough for the care and support they showed me at such a difficult time, after the loss of my dear Mum. Liam made the funeral arrangement process so much easier with his kindness and understanding. I was kept informed of the funeral arrangements at every stage, and had peace of mind that my Mum was in safe hands. When I visited my Mum in the Chapel of Rest, Liam was right beside me, supporting me. I could see how much love and care had been shown to Mum, she looked absolutely beautiful. I was given as much time as I needed to say goodbye to my Mum, and that meant so much to me.

On the day of Mum's funeral, Southgate and Roberts done my Mum proud. Everything went perfectly, from start to finish. The MInister who Liam put me in touch with delivered a heartfelt and poignant service. Southgate and
Roberts provided the most beautiful funeral flowers, my Mum would have loved them. Liam and the team supported me right up to leaving the Crematorium. Many of the mourners commented on how well it all went. When picking Mum's ashes up, the kindness shown by Julian, made a sad occasion easier to bear.

I would highly recommend Southgate and Roberts to anyone who sadly finds themselves in the position of needing a Funeral Director. I can look back now, and realise, I don't think I would have got through such a sad time without the knowledge that Southgate and Roberts were lovingly preparing Mum for her final journey - the reassurance and comfort I got from knowing this was priceless. Thank you all so much.

From the first point of contact, Liam was incredibly professional, caring and accommodating to our ever changing plans. He gave us very good advice throughout the planning stages and he and his team carried out their duties faultlessly.  We had total confidence and trust in Liam and were in no way let down. Southgate and Roberts exceeded our expectations overall, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to friends.

Southgate & Roberts  provided excellent care at a very difficult time. Everything was explained.and they took time to listen to any questions we had.

The entire handling of the funeral from the very first contact was dealt with very personally and with total compassion and dignity. The care that was taken not just of Brian but the entire family was first class, ensuring that all wishes were taken into account and that the actual day went as well if not better than expected. A thoroughly professional service I would feel happy to recommend to anyone.

I decided that I would have Southgate & Roberts to arrange the funeral of my dearest wife Lynn, this was the best decision I’ve ever made.
The advice they gave and the care and respect that was shown from the beginning was second to none.
