"The level of love and care they gave to my Dad made our family feel safe in the knowledge he was in the best hands. From start to finish there wasn't a hint of worry or stress for us as Jason had everything under control."
— Mark Brown (about Jason)
"Abi's warmth and empathy made us feel truly cared for, Jason's calm and reassuring presence helped guide us through the arrangements, and Bruce's attention to detail ensured everything was perfect on the day. They treated our loved one with the utmost respect and dignity."
— Lisa Rules (about Abi, Jason & Bruce)
"They've even got handy with a glue gun to help add personal touches to the casket. They've opened late for us, they've led us through a very upsetting time whilst giving us full control. My grandmother would be very proud and happy with the way her send off was executed."
— J A (about Abi & Jason)
"We believe it was fate that brought Larvin and Clegg to us in our time of need. Abi and Jason were more than funeral directors — they were a source of strength and kindness when we needed it most. Brad's military funeral was carried out with flawless precision and heartfelt dignity."
— Alison Johnson (about Abi & Jason)
"Jason and Abi wrapped their virtual arms around our family and took care of everything taking all worries away from the very first contact we had with them. They bring a new and modern approach to the funeral industry far removed from the traditional victorian old fashioned funeral directors which is refreshing and certainly helps mentally and with the grieving process."
— Michael Byrne (about Abi & Jason)
"In the darkest of times, these truly amazing people brought light, comfort and reassurance. They don't just provide a service; they make you feel like part of the family and you feel as if you have known them for years not days. We will never forget the kindness you showed our family."
— Chris Rimmer (about Abi & Jason)

I can't decribe how much Abi and Jason have helped us to plan my mum's funeral. We had a Hindu influenced service and Jason already had experience of this so they were understanding about our preferences. Abi gently guided us through a sad and emotional time and made the process as pain free as possible. They suggested so many touches that added to the service becoming a smooth and dignified celebration of mum's life. There was no hard sell and the advice given focused on our needs and getting us to think about what mum may have liked. From the moment we had our first appointment to the day of the funeral when they were present in the back ground at the crematorium, they offered guidance and reassurance. We can't thank them enough, highly recommended.

I cannot recommend Larvin & Clegg Funeral Directors highly enough. From the very first phone call with Abi, through to the service itself, their care and professionalism was outstanding. Their communication from start to finish was exceptional. Always clear, always reassuring, and always at the right time. We never once felt unsure about anything. Every call, every message, every conversation was handled with patience and kindness. I honestly could not fault a single thing. Abi and Jason are truly amazing people. You can see how passionate they are about what they do, and that passion shines through in every detail. They don’t just provide a service; they make you feel like part of the family and you feel as if you have known them for years not days Everything was handled with such kindness, dignity and compassion. The service was incredibly personal and thoughtful, exactly how mum would have wanted it. They gave both myself and my dad as much time as we needed, carefully talking us through every plan and decision. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We also have to mention Jill Young, who Abi also recommend the celebrant, she was absolutely wonderful. She delivered such a beautiful and personal service. Her warmth and understanding made the whole service feel so special and meaningful. In the darkest of times, these truly amazing people brought light, comfort and reassurance. We will never forget the kindness you showed our family. Thank you for caring the way you do, We will be forever grateful. Cx Jx

Compassionate, Professional, and Truly Exceptional During one of the most difficult times in our lives, Larkin and Clegg provided a level of care and support that went far beyond our expectations. Abi, Jason, and Bruce were not only professional and efficient, but also incredibly kind, patient, and understanding throughout the entire process. From the first phone call to the final farewell, they handled every detail with grace and sensitivity. Abi’s warmth and empathy made us feel truly cared for, Jason’s calm and reassuring presence helped guide us through the arrangements, and Bruce’s attention to detail ensured everything was perfect on the day. They treated our loved one with the utmost respect and dignity, and made sure the service reflected everything we hoped for. Their personal touches and thoughtful gestures meant so much to us and helped turn a painful moment into a beautiful tribute. We are deeply grateful to Larkin and Clegg for their outstanding service, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of compassionate and trustworthy funeral directors.

I cannot recommend Larvin and Clegg enough. From the very first phone call with Jason, the level of care and attention was second to none. They guided us through a very difficult time and made us feel so at ease throughout. Nothing was too much trouble and Jason, Abi, Liza and Alison were so helpful and reassuring from start to finish. The level of love and care they gave to my Dad made our family feel safe in the knowledge he was in the best hands. The service went perfectly, the whole team were excellent. From start to finish there wasn’t a hint of worry or stress for us as Jason had everything under control. Thank you to all at Larvin and Clegg, you did Dad proud.

From start to end Abi and Jason looked after my family and my late grandmother with tenderness, care, empathy and compassion. We wanted to support an independent business in my grandmother's town where we spent so many happy years. Nothing has been too much trouble for this team. They've even got handy with a glue gun to help add personal touches to the casket. We've been kept informed, they've been gentle with us, they've opened late for us, they've led us through a very upsetting time whilst giving us full control. My grandmother would be very proud and happy with the way her send off was executed. I'm so happy to have chosen Larvin and Clegg and have absolutely no regrets about anything. Thank you for helping us say goodbye to Mrs Barnes in the beautiful dignified way she so deserved. From Jade and family
