Never something you expect to have to do when your wife is only 58 years old this was the hardest thing I have ever done but I must say Helen Ellis at Heanor Gillotts Funeral Directors was absolutely fantastic from the very first meeting. Such a compassionate understanding lady who made this whole painful experience as easy as she could do which was of great benefit and comfort to myself and my two children. I cannot recommend this lady highly enough and the service by Gillotts on the day was exceptional.

Anthony and his colleagues have been absolutely wonderful with all aspects of Mums funeral before and after, and with my dear Father almost 3 years ago. Their professionalism at a time whilst grieving was comforting and second to none.

A lovely service to celebrate the life of my mother of 100 years. The order of service was beautifully printed and the visual tribute was well put together. We were treated with kindness and sympathy at all times. Our celebrant was Drew Baxter who gave a great testimony regarding mums life. I found Gillots to be extremely professional at all times

About Us
Tracing their origin back to 1867, Gillotts Funeral Directors are an independent family funeral director in Heanor. They offer caring and compassionate funeral services to families in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, although they are also happy to conduct funerals further afield if requested.
The origins of the Heanor funeral home go back to the Second World War, when Ernest Brewin started a joiner's workshop and undertakers - at that time a common combination - on Abbott Street. His nephew Jack Gillott later bought the business from his uncle, and the business became Gillotts Funeral Service. Jack's son-in-law Anthony Topley joined him in the business, and in 1992 when Jack retired, the business merged with Eastwood & District Funeral Service, and Anthony became part of the newly formed partnership.
The team at the Heanor funeral home consists of funeral directors Anthony Topley and Helen Ellis, and Funeral Administrator Amanda Outram, who all have years of experience and will be on hand to guide you through every step of the funeral arrangement.
Gillotts Funeral Directors has its own fleet of modern and reliable Jaguar hearses and limousines, ensuring that you can travel with dignity and comfort to the funeral.
Gillotts Funeral Directors, Heanor is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, with a 24-hour service. Call now to find out more about the services they provide and begin making funeral arrangements for your loved one.
