Thorne Leggett app for iPhone and iPad

In 1991, two experienced Funeral Directors saw a need for a new independent Funeral Director practice to serve the local area of Surrey and Hampshire.

Geoffrey Thorne was working with his father in their family firm, Kemp & Stevens in Alton, while David Leggett had been a funeral director in Farnham for many years. The partnership of Thorne-Leggett was established and their first office opened soon after in Whitehill with much success.

David and Geoff were determined to build their business on their principles of total professionalism and always making the client their absolute priority. David retired in 2009, and Geoffrey opened the second office in Farnham in 2012.

Our team strive to create an atmosphere of relaxation and tranquillity to help our clients feel as comfortable as possible when they visit to discuss the funeral arrangements.

Geoffrey firmly believes that all funerals should reflect the character of the person in life and he still pages all corteges from the place of departure into Cemeteries, Churchyards or Crematoria.

Thorne Leggett have created a mobile app to increase customer interaction in a user friendly, portable manner and to ensure their presence within current mobile technology. The app includes useful features such as: -

- A customisable to-do list to aid the arrangements
- A contact page with GPS maps to ensure locating the home is hassle-free
- An advice page to provide you with helpful information following a death
- My Wishes page allowing you to provide information as to how you want your funeral to be planned
- Products page for us to display and promote our products
- My Details page for you to input your personal details and send a condolence message using an original or preselected message.
- iBeacon technology, this is a new development in the funeral industry and will change how attendees send their message of condolence.
