We are modern funeral directors committed to supporting the wellbeing of every bereaved individual
We will first listen to you, and then tailor our support to meet your needs. We understand that people have different levels of funeral experience and that some people want to be given clear guidance whereas others would prefer to be told about their options and then feel empowered to make the choices that are right for them.
Funeral Directors Halifax – About our services
Full Circle Funerals opened its first service in Yorkshire in 2016 and we opened our newest funeral home in Halifax in June 2020 because one of our team is from Calderdale and wanted to bring Full Circle to her home town.
Everyone in our small team has a professional background in health, social or pastoral care and we hold the award for the “Best Modern Funeral Director” in the national Good Funeral Awards. Our funeral directors work hard to deliver person-centred support, making sure that you are at the centre of everything that we do. We can support you to create a “traditional” or “alternative funeral” and can help you to understand more about greener funeral choices, if that is important to you.
It means a lot to us that you feel comfortable when you here so we have made sure that each service gives a calm, safe environment. In our service we have two meeting rooms, a visiting room and a large display room. We also understand that some people would prefer for us to visit them in their home and if you feel that this would be right for you, please let us know.
If you would like to see more, here is a video tour of our funeral directors in Halifax, which we hope you might find helpful.
Local services – Supporting You Together
We know that strong local community links are essential. Indeed, this is more so after you have been bereaved. We work closely with other services, businesses and organisations in Calderdale so that we can work together to give you the best possible support.
You may already have established relationships and connections and have people or places that you prefer. If not, then please don’t hesitate to let us know and we can help you to find what you need.
