Felixstowe funeral directors named ‘one of the UK’s best’

David Button Independent Funeral Directors has been named as one of the UK’s best funeral directors following an assessment visit by the Good Funeral Guide, an independent funeral consumer advocacy organisation.

The Good Funeral Guide assesses select funeral homes according to strict criteria which focus on the quality of the experience they offer to bereaved people. David Button Independent Funeral Directors, based in Felixstowe, had been inspected to ensure that clients are treated with courtesy, listened to with empathy, offered a full range of choice, charged fairly and empowered to play whatever part they want in creating a send-off for the person they have lost, which accords with their values and wishes.

The accreditation process also involved spending time at the funeral directors to ascertain that those who have passed away are cared for with the utmost tenderness and respect.

Charles Cowling, author of the Good Funeral Guide, said: “Choosing a funeral director can be very difficult because they all look much the same. But they’re not. Some, a precious few, are truly outstanding, and David Button’s is one of them.”

David Button added: “We are thrilled to be endorsed by The Good Funeral Guide and take pride that in our assessment our personal approach, 100 percent availability and our transparent pricing stood out. We understand that not every applicant succeeds and are pleased to be in such very good company.”
