STUART’S FUNERAL
When I first came to visit Deborah at the funeral home I was so upset and worried about the mammoth task ahead of me I was beside myself. After talking to Deborah the whole burden was instantly lifted and I knew I had made the right decision in choosing them.

If you are looking for an affordable funeral with all the important trimmings and professionalism then Northern Cremations is for you. Your loved one could not be in better hands. A big thankyou also to Angela Riding who grasped the essence of my brother exactly, you did an excellent job. A sad day turned out to be the perfect send off. Thank you.

Mr. R Bradley
The quality of service amount of dignity afforded and value for money that we received from Debbie and Ashley and their whole team could not have been bettered by anyone considering my cousin picked them randomly from an internet search engine how lucky we were to have found them. We would recommend them highly to anyone who needs a funeral service where consideration and sensitivity are paramount!

SUPERB SERVICE
I would like to say to anyone who is looking for a funeral director, look no further than Northern Cremations at the very difficult time of finding out your loved one will not be getting better and you need to make arrangements to help you deal with it all i like many other people went on the internet and found so many services not publishing clear prices which in this day and age should be done as standard. Northern Cremations publish their prices which they should be praised for the standards of service and care we received was 5***** and beyond my fathers funeral was fit for royalty and without breaking the bank. Debbie you are a credit to the funeral directors profession. xx

Funeral Expenses
Dads funeral was in April 2015 I couldn’t believe how much the cost of a funeral was for someone who demanded no fuss The fixed price funeral was well within our price and the dignity in which Debbie helped us was astonishing I felt immediately that I had left dad with the right person Even though Debbie had offered to do everything she also afforded us to take the music to the crematorium so we could have a look round Dad would of been pleased with the service from Debbie and Northern Cremations I even got a reassuring hug from her at the end I would and will recommend Debbie and Northern Cremations …in fact the family have been spreading the word already Thank you all

Superb Service
We searched the Internet for a ‘reasonably’ priced funeral when my Mother In Law passed away… Luckily, we found Debbie and her team at Northern Cremations, the service we received was second to none, kind+compassionate, nothing too much trouble, no hard selling… and 100% professional, it was such a relief knowing my M-I-L was left in her care, “Thankyou for everything Debbie…you made a traumatic couple of weeks more bearable”…. xx

Walter Lomas
I would like to thank Ashley for all the help the family received at this difficult time. The way in which they handled Walter’s cremation and the help they provided was exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble and they could not have been more helpful and understanding. Many of the people who attended the service commented that it was one of the best services they had ever been to. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is in the sad position of arranging a funeral/cremation for a loved one. I would also like to thank Angela Ridding who conducted the service. First class job.
Julie Lomas
The Best Funeral Home in Blackpool, probably in Lancashire. Anyone who has been blessed to be able to leave thier loved one in their care, there don’t have to worry because they are in very capable hands. This really helped me at the time. The family that own Northern Cremations were born to do this job. They are all amazing and most considerate family. My family mainly dealt with Ashley who was professional yet emotionally caring even my children really took to him and that doesn’t come easily from my girls.
I know members of my family have also done funeral plans with you because of your professionalism and sensitivity. The Whole thing which is a really bad time for people to lose their loved one but from beginning to end it made it that bit easier knowing that my dear beloved husband Richard Latham was in the best hands ever Northern Cremations are truly the Best
Thank you for all your caring yet professional two weeks nearly of time you gave to look after my husband Richard Latham. He was in the best hands ever and our whole family thought this and felt this from you. I am truly stuck for words which as you know that doesn’t come easily for me lol. But really thank you so very much for everything from beginning to end from all the Latham family especially me and Sharna. NC are the best love Sarah

We have recently lost a very much loved aunt, leaving us very distressed. We rang Northern Cremations , and Ashley and Charlotte arrived at the time they stated, which helped tremendously. They were so very kind to us , and very professional and explained everything , they made a very stressful time so much easier to bear. Throughout the time, until the funeral we were treated with such kindness and compassion . We came away on one of the most difficult days feeling very thankful to this wonderful personable firm……they all went the extra mile for us and we are eternally grateful. I would recommend them,as they really do take the weight off your shoulders and make one of the worst times in your life, so much easier to get through…So THANKYOU..Ashley, Charlotte and Deborah Jane,John & Family xxx

Funeral of my brother, Nicholas
Testimonial I had to arrange a funeral for my late brother, Nicholas which was held on 10th April 2017 and administered by Northern Cremations Ltd. We dealt with Charlotte at the Cleveleys office who was really kind and understanding and so professional.

Susan Foy
Funeral of Lily Hills
Testimonial When I was at one of the lowest times in my life and was overwhelmed by the charges of other funeral companies. Someone suggested I phone Northern Cremations, from the very first phone call Ashley put me at my ease and took all the worry off my shoulders. When I met Debbie she was as equally caring and understanding. I truly felt I had put my Mum in the right hands. The quality of service is second to none. Their Low cost funeral could not be faulted or bested by anyone else. I know I couldn’t have given my Mum a better send off. They also introduced me to Angela Riding who took the service and wrote a beautiful and fitting Eulogy. These people are some of the kindest and professional people I have ever met. I would not hesitate to recommend this Company. I hope they will still be around when my time comes. Thanks to all of you. I will never forget the kindness and care you showed to me I feel I met new and trusted friends not just a Funeral Company. I could not have got through it without you. xxxx Susan Foy.

Ann Wilson
William Kenneth Hewitt
Testimonial I had arranged a funeral with another home but was upset when I was asked for all the added extra’s for a basic funeral. I went to the Cleveleys branch and spoke to Debbie. I immediately felt at ease. She offered me a veterans funeral for my dad with no hidden costs. The service went above and beyond what I expected. The Hearst did a drive by the Care Home where my dad was a resident, with an courtesy car for the staff. The service not only had the flag covering the coffin, there were also standard bearers and a singer who sang the last post. All the staff were very professional and friendly to our family. All my family were impressed at the service and I know my Dad would have loved all the pomp and ceremony. Thank you I will certainly recommend this family business to others as I already have done so.
Christine Dunks

They are so friendly and caring nothing to much trouble,which means a lot at such time of great sadness. They arranged for us to meet Angela Ridings a very kind, caring, and compassionate minister who delivered a warm personal and dignified eulogy to my Mum.

Thank You
I would just like to say how incredibly kind and supportive you were Ashley when you assisted me and my Family with the Cremation of my Mum, Jean Watson.
As we live so far away in Essex, you made the whole situation of my Mum passing as easy and uncomplicated as possible during a difficult time.
Nothing was too much trouble and you made the whole situation very dignified and compassionate.
Thank you once again for everything you did for us.
Janet and Steve Rix
Our Mum’s Funeral 17/08/2020
As a family we want to say a huge thank you to Charlotte, you made the process of arranging our Mum’s funeral very easy even during the Covid-19 restrictions. You were there when we needed to ask questions and explained how the new world works in regards to the restrictions at the crematorium, the respect and dignity you showed our Mum was what we needed during this difficult time.
Nothing was too much trouble even collecting Mum’s belongings from the hospital for us, again another Covid restriction and when we thought we would not be able to see Mum, Ashley made a safe environment for us to pay or last respects, this meant the world to us. There are no words that can express how grateful we are to you; thank you just doesn’t seem enough. When all other funeral directors are taking advantage and increasing their costs, but lowering their standards, Charlotte and Ashley remain true to their family business and provide dignified and respectful funerals at a price that has not changed due to Covid. 5 stars to an amazing funeral directors.
Karyn
Thank You
Thankyou to all of you for the loving care and compassion you gave during this uncertain time, to my mum annette smith.
Lisa
Our Aunt
As soon as we met Melanie at the Cleveleys branch we knew we had made the right choice for Northern Cremations to deal with the funeral arrangements for our dear Auntie.
Melanie was lovely and so personable explaining everything clearly and has kept us informed throughout. Thank you so much for your warmth, kindness and compassion!! It made a difficult time less of a burden knowing you are looking after our Aunt XX
Absolutely superb service from start to finish
Writing what I knew I’d have too one day, but it was many years too soon. After suddenly losing our father, we contacted NC. Debbie came to see us at a time convenient to us and in particular was very prompt in doing so.
We talked through various packages and ours and our fathers wishes, discussing all options available. We ended up with a cremation at the cemetery of our choice at a time and date that suited everybody.
During the process what stands out for me the most is that I wanted to see my father as much as I could before we laid him to rest. Debbie saw this possible and allowed me to visit him daily. No time in the day or weekend and whatever hour I wanted, she made available and this really did mean the world to me personally.
The funeral itself went as well as one could and collecting my father ashes also.
I couldn’t recommend Debbie and team more for helping us through this difficult time.
Dave hodgson
Funeral was just as we asked. Debbie hugged mum which surprised her. Nothing was to much trouble. Professional through out. Could not have wanted better and was a lot cheaper than allot of the others. A lot of people today were saying what a beautiful service.
Made the funeral
Today was my friend David’s funeral. From start to finish Debbie was brilliant. From first contact. The coffin package which is half a lot of quotes we had. She was so caring from day 1. Nothing was to much trouble. When my friend arrived it was exactly as they said it would be. Andrew the official they recommended was great even taking his mum outside for a moment to get her breath. Debbie gave his mum a hug when she got there. And acknowledged me as I’d done all the arrangements. If your loved one should be looked after their parting it should be with them
