Local Funeral Directors Guiseley

Funerals in Guiseley

We opened our first service in Guiseley in September 2016 and we have supported people from all over Yorkshire ever since. We understand that it is important for people to find a service that they feel is best able to meet their needs, so we are happy to travel to support people who live further away. We are a female-led organisation, and our approach is informed by our backgrounds in health and social care.

We believe that how a place looks and feels has a significant impact on your experience. We were determined to create a funeral service that feels friendly, calm, and peaceful so that you feel comfortable spending time there. We have several rooms that can be used to discuss your funeral choices with you and gentle spaces where you can spend time with the person who has died if you wish. Please have a look at the pictures on this page, or you might find our video tour helpful.

Full Circle Guiseley have been absolutely brilliant looking after my Father, who passed away suddenly at home due to a stroke on 8th October 2024.From the moment we walked into the Guiseley branch, we knew we were in very capable hands. Dad was made to feel like a human, and the premises exude an undeniable warmth—even the offer of a tea or coffee each time we visited made all the difference at a very tough and painful time for the Ellis family.The team at Guiseley have been absolutely fantastic, their empathy and understanding made a difficult time a little easier to bear.Thank you so much.

Full Circle did so much for our family following the death of our son and we were so glad he was in such safe and caring hands. Everything was so sensitively handled and well organised - it was a lovely, moving service and a fitting tribute and farewell. I can never thank you enough.

Where do I start……….we first met Ruth when I popped in with my very, very poorly Mum. We walked into the beautiful Guiseley building, where we had walked through the very same door 15 years earlier to buy my wedding dress together. Through desperate tears, Mums first words were “this really is Full Circle”.Ruth immediately greeted us with her profound sensitivity, remarkable compassion and utter professionalism. She made what was the most difficult and brave spur of the moment appointment of our lives, so easy, relaxed and remarkably special. I truly believe that we were suppose to meet with Ruth that day.There are a thousand words I could write about Ruth and our experience as a family, and indeed how she guided me, single handedly through the most difficult time of my life, encompassing various family complexities and issues, in life as well as death. But put simply, if there was ever any one person to guide you through the most difficult, unpredictable and frightening storm of your life, the only person I would choose to carry out such a difficult task, would be Ruth. She is a truly remarkable professional and an incredible human being.Thank you for looking after Mum, the way she very specifically wanted you to. In life and in death. You have made the biggest imprint on my heart.

Jodie and the team at Full Circle were just amazing. The empathy, care and support we received was outstanding. Great sensitivity was shown throughout and all our requests were given attentive support. The atmosphere at Full Circle Guiseley is so refreshing, very contemporary and like a warm hug. Having one-to-one support throughout made the whole experience so calm and professional. I would wholeheartedly recommend them and am so pleased we chose them.

I didn't have a funeral directors in mind when my mum passed away but a few people recommended Full Circle Guiseley. This was a flawless service from beginning to end in quite a difficult family circumstance but they dealt with every detail diplomatically. The planning and the service went perfectly.

Full Curcle provided an exceptional experience during a difficult time. Their compassionate staff offered support, guiding us through every step with professionalism and care. The personalised touches and attention to detail made the service truly meaningful and reflective of our loved one's life. We couldn't have asked for a more comforting and respectful experience. Highly recommend Full Circle for their outstanding dedication and service.

A few years ago, I heard a representative of Full Circle talking on BBC Radio Leeds. They sounded like just the company to help us create the send-off for our mother that was required.When the time came, we were helped by the Martin at Full Circle to decide on just what we wanted for our mother and how best it could be brought about. There were lots of things to consider and lots of options available. This enabled us to have the quite, personal, family funeral we wanted.

I cannot recommend Full Circle Guiseley highly enough to anyone who is looking for help and guidance to arrange the funeral of their loved one. From the very first time we reached out via email following the sudden death of my dad we were spoken to with such genuine empathy that we felt confident they would help us give dad the perfect send off. Sarah guided us through the process, warning us that the coroner would likely be involved, and talking us through options we didn’t really know were available to us. Martin then met with us a number of times so that we were able to put together a day that my mum and the whole family were delighted with. He also recommended a perfect celebrant who did a great job at the family burial at Tarn Moor and also the celebration we held later that day. Nothing was too much trouble. You have the whole family’s gratitude- we would never be tempted to go anywhere else. Thank you.

Martin was able to suggest appropriate people to act for us including the celebrant and the livestreaming company, both of whom were excellent. He also helped us negotiate with our chosen venue and arrange for the funeral to take place there. This really helped us with planning and fixing a date, thanks to martin we were able to move the funeral from the crematorium and maintain the date we wanted.

All the team at Full Circle Funerals embodies these qualities, because excellent service is not just about the funeral director you choose – it is about everyone who contributes to your funeral plans and service throughout the whole process.

How can I choose the best funeral directors in Guiseley?

Everyone wants something different from a funeral service, and from the planning process beforehand. As such, the best funeral director to meet your needs may be the one that makes you feel relaxed and comfortable, or the one that offers the specific funeral service you want. Some people leave behind very specific instructions and it may just be a case of finding a funeral home that can accommodate them. In other cases, you might need guidance and support throughout the process, to give you the confidence that you are making the right choices.

Working with local funeral directors is often the best approach because they have local knowledge, which can help to reduce the administrative burden of planning the funeral. They will also offer more control and enable you to customise funeral plans to meet your exact requirements. The team at Full Circle Funerals begins funeral planning by talking about the person who has died, to get a sense of their personality and the options that might be suitable. From there, we can explain our funeral services and how the process of arranging a funeral unfolds to make things easier for you.

Our funeral directors in Guiseley are well-respected for the quality of the service they deliver, and have links to the local community that can help you to take everything into consideration. We are trained in bereavement support and will take things at your pace. Thanks to our expertise in funeral care, you can be certain that we can provide the funeral service you want.

5 Stars

The opportunity to meet with Jodie in a relaxed setting and talk through what we were thinking and feeling about mum made huge difference. As well as having a personal contact throughout and not lots of different people and Jodie was so empathic.

Andrew

5 Stars

The personal approach we felt comfortable and at ease nothing was too much trouble. As my husband died suddenly our world has been turned upside down and we needed someone to take control and help. The chapel of rest been attached to the office and close by and a more modern approach and after first telephone call we felt comfortable and that we would be helped and looked after. I cant thank the staff enough-particularly Anne.

Angela

5 Stars

Thanks to the thoroughness of your team, we knew and had the input into what would happen. That preparation helped us to prepare mentally for what was to come and helped enormously. The choice of the coffin, handing out of roses at the end of the ceremony, the choice of music, all made it feel that we were making the ceremony very personal. I cannot praise the staff highly enough. Their approach, their empathy, their determination to help us find what was right for us, their attention and positive reactions to every detail was so supportive and so much appreciated. We were 100% happy with all the arrangements. All went like clockwork and we felt we had been so well supported at such a difficult and emotional time. From the initial contact through to the final receipt of the bill, we knew what was happening, felt cared for professionally and personally. We can not praise all involved highly enough. The offer of bereavement counselling and the inclusion of forget-me-not seeds shows the level of service and care this form provides. I will be forever grateful that chance led us to choose this company. No praise is sufficient. Thank-you so much.
