About Us

Gallagher Family Funeral Directors is an independent family funeral director in Keighley, and have been serving the people and families of the town and its surrounding districts since 1993.

The business was established by David and Adele Gallagher, with the aim of becoming Keighley's first choice funeral director by maintaining a personal caring approach to all families of the bereaved. Their son, Sam, has recently joined the business sharing the same vision and caring values.

The Gallagher family aims to offer the highest level of care and attention with a flexible approach to individual needs by offering clear funeral options and transparent pricing.

Gallagher Family Funeral Directors are very proud to employ carefully chosen members of staff who show the care, respect and understanding that you would expect from a family business. Every funeral director is fully trained and qualified, obtaining industry recognised diplomas from the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD).

The compassionate staff at Gallagher’s all understand the difficult nature of funeral arrangements, but believe it is always worthwhile contacting at least two businesses, so you can compare the services they offer and all the costs involved, as no two funerals or funeral directors are the same.

The team at the funeral home in Keighley will listen to you and make you feel at ease, to try and to help make the process of arranging a funeral easier and more bearable.

You are welcome to visit the premises by appointment to meet the family, who will answer any questions you may have.

Call Gallagher Family Funeral Directors now to find out more about the services they provide and begin making funeral arrangements for your loved one.

    Where to start!!. David and his team were absolutely brilliant putting my cherished mum's funeral together. From start to finish they provided a fabulous service. Professional respectful and always at hand to help out or offer suggestions. My dad is not the best with technology and when he couldn't do something online David came to the house. Above and beyond. Can't recommend Gallaghers enough to look after your most treasured relative.

  • 5 Angela McLoughlin 2nd Mar 2025

    From the minute Paul answered the phone to my dad to arrange Margaret Inman's funeral... We knew we had chosen the right funeral director. Paul's attention to detail, compassion and understanding was second to none. The whole team at Gallaghers were amazing.... We just can't thank them enough, they made the whole process of arranging a very painful funeral bearable. The grieving process is still ongoing, and so is the support from Paul and the team... I personally can't thank you enough for being there for my dad..... Thank you

The process of planning a funeral for a loved one is an emotional journey, but they guide you every step of the way with care, compassion and professionalism.

    Great care from all the team, especially Paul, who ensured that my brothers simple wishes were carried out to the letter. Paul offered great support and reasurance to both me and my boys.
    Im truly thankful that a difficult time was made bearable.

  • 5 Alison Burnett 11th Feb 2025

    Paul dealt with mums funeral from start to finish and i couldn't fault him. He couldn't do enough for me at this incredibly sad and heartbreaking time in my life. Mum had a beautiful celebration of life in the chapel at Gallaghers and it was absolutely perfect. Dawn delivered the eulogy perfectly and mum no doubt would have been laughing at some of the daft things she got upto and shared with friends.
    I would thoroughly recommend Gallaghers funeral directors (chosen by mum for herself after dad died)
    Thank you Paul Wilkinson you were brilliant and so kind .

  • 5 Christine Kendall 10th Feb 2025

    Gallagher have been our family’s choice of help with the funerals of six of our immediate family and two of our relatives, they are so good to deal with keeping us informed, and helped with every decision we needed to make.  For this latest funeral of our brother Ian, Simon was our contact and our family would like to say how much we appreciated all the help he gave us when we needed it most. Thank you all

  • 5 Andrew Asquith 10th Feb 2025

  • 5 Thomas Wilmot 7th Feb 2025

    Gallaghers have been amazing but a big special thank you to Simon. He has been a compassionate, caring and supportive help in such difficult times for us as a family. Thank you for everything Simon, for looking after David and us. From the first day we met you have been absolutely amazing and the family will never forget it. 
    Love Thomas, Liam, Kathryn and Erin x
