Local Funeral Directors Harrogate
Full Circle Funerals is a female-led, modern funeral service – we have been funeral directors since 2016 and believe in the value of person-centred support. Many of our funeral directors have a background in health, social or pastoral care and we won the “Best Modern Funeral Director” award in the national Good Funeral Awards.
We believe that our physical environment has a significant impact on how we feel and for this reason we have made sure that our service is warm and welcoming. We also understand that sometimes people feel that they would rather us visit them in their homes (or at a different location convenient for them) and we are more than happy to accommodate any such request. To see what our funeral service in Harrogate looks like please see some images below. You can also watch a video tour of our funeral service in Harrogate.

It was above and beyond any expectations that we had. I had googled ‘Direct Cremations’ and although most were cheaper than Full Circle, none offered the level of service that we received. Lucy became a friend to Wendy. She even encouraged her to eat. Nothing was too much trouble. When Wendy died, I didn’t need the same level of support but the service was wonderful. I would recommend Full Circle to anyone.

All went very smoothly and relieved us of a great deal of stress. David could not have been more helpful and supportive throughout. We wanted something more personal and more sympathetic than traditional funeral directors and were very happy with our choice.

After the recent passing of my father, I couldn’t recommend this wonderful service enough. Anne is remarkable at her job, addressing the person who had passed individually at every interacting, keeping a calm compassionate staff and atmosphere, and attending to each small detail faultlessly. Our family extends our full trust to Full Circle- Now and in future. First Class

Ruth and the team at Full Circle, Harrogate, were amazing from start to the end-so supportive, helpful and they guided us through what was an emotional and difficult time- but made it easier to cope with but with many extra special touches- but without any pressure. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they made the actual day of the funeral of without a hitch-with many extra touches that made such a sad day actually vert beautiful I cannot recommend them enough,
