I can not express my gratitude enough towards Hillier. I had the pleasure of dealing with Reece, Tracy and Kai. From the first point of contact until after the ashes were released, they have made sure I was looked after and that everything … read more was as requested.
If anything needed changing they did this quickly and without complaint. They have gone above and beyond to accommodate a complex situation and work around it. Kai was professional and made sure that everyone knew what was happening and fulfilled requests asked of him in a professional but friendly manner. Tracy was professional, friendly and had alot of patience both with organising specific requests and generally chatting. Reece himself went above and beyond expectations. He was quick in his responses, he made dealing with various situations stress free and made sure everything flowed effortlessly. Reece was able to read the tone of various situations and dealt with them accordingly.
I can not thank the team enough for their patience, compassion and care. I am and always will be forever grateful. If you want effortless planning with kind, compassionate and caring people, there is no other choice. Thank you all again!

Share the Details of a Loved One’s Funeral with Family & Friends
Letting people know that a loved one has died isn’t an easy thing to do. To help make this a little easier, we offer a complimentary online funeral notice to all our clients which details the funeral arrangements and can be shared with family and friends.
People can also leave a message of condolence as well as find out information about your wishes for flowers and donations.

Openness and transparency are very important to us, so we have created a Funeral Cost Calculator to help you get an understanding of the overall costs of the funeral you wish to arrange. Having visibility of the costs in advance allows you to make informed decisions and choices about the funeral arrangements.
All funeral directors are required by law to publish a price list for a standardised set of products and services.
The aim of these documents is to provide transparency so you can consider your options, make informed choices and compare prices between different funeral directors.
The range of options and choices available to you at Hillier extend far beyond the standardised price list. We will work closely with you to arrange any funeral you wish, big or small, that suits your individual needs and budget.
