PJ Dallat & Sons 65-67 Market St Ballycastle have kindly agreed to let us use their funeral home. This will give our families the option of having a service if church isn’t their choice, this will also allow us to offer organised viewing times for family and friends to meet prior to the funeral.

If you’d like additional information on this new service we can offer, feel free to call me or contact via our WhatsApp number.
