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.

    From the moment we contacted Gallagher's we received a very professional service. David, was extremely supportive, helpful and kind and guided us through a very difficult time with ease. He was very considerate, sympathetic and did everything he possibly could to make things as easy as possible for us all. My mum was treated with the utmost respect throughout and I really couldn't recommend Gallagher's enough. Thank yo.

  • 5 Sharon Latta 8th Dec 2022

    Special thanks to David Gallagher Funeral Directors for their empathy and care when dealing with my husband Jacks funeral. David guided me through a very emotional time giving me help, support and time. He even bought the whole team bright new ties to tie in with Jacks wishes for people to be in bright colours. He made a difficult time more bearable and helped us to personalise the service to make it a fitting tribute to Jack.

  • 5 Diane Morris 4th Dec 2022

    Simon was easy to get on with, very helpful, sincere and professional in arranging the funeral. I would definitely recommend the company.

  • 5 Linda Long 4th Dec 2022

    Everything from the planning of the funeral to the actual event was professional and seamless. We were able to make our own choices from careful guidance and then the organisation of it all was done by Gallagher Funeral Directors, thereby taking all the stress away from us. Communication about each part of our wishes was excellent.

  • 5 Peter Richmond 1st Dec 2022

    David and his team were helpful from the outset. They were understanding, calm and kind when talking to us. They explained everything clearly at word go, answered every question and no reasonable request was refused.
    I was particularly pleased that they were able to persuade the celebrant who officated at my my Mum's funeral to assist with my Dad's. The picture tribute used as a time of reflection in the middle of the service was excelent.
    While I hope I do not see David too often if I need a funeral director he will be my first port of call.
