Mulhollands Funeral Directors has been looking after families in the local community for over 55 years in both Carrickfergus and Larne. In June 2012 our Carrickfergus funeral home began an extensive refurbishment of the premises to provide a more modern funeral home with full disabled access, private restrooms, a courtyard and office space.
In 2016 our Larne funeral home also saw a refurbishment of the entire premises. Both funeral homes still offer the same level of care and professionalism that the communities have not only come to expect, but deserve.
The teams at our Carrickfergus and Larne funeral homes will provide advice at every stage of the funeral planning process, and will arrange an individual and unique funeral to help you celebrate the life of your loved one. We have our own service venue on-site.
Here at Mulhollands Funeral Directors we also offer a prepaid funeral plan, Choice, so that you can arrange and pay for a funeral in advance.
If you would like to talk to us about planning a funeral, or our Choice plan, please come and see us in any of our funeral homes, or if you’d rather we can arrange a home visit. We’re also available 24 hours a day on the phone so if you need anything please don’t hesitate to call your local funeral home.
Funeral Arranger
I have worked in Mulhollands Carrickfergus for nearly two years now, having no previous background to the funeral industry. I love helping my community during one of the hardest times they’ll face. Having lost both my parents, I can really empathise with my families.
In my arrangement room, I tell families they are in a safe place to cry, laugh, swear or simply rant – whatever their emotion is, is ok.
I also love to help clients with pre-need funeral plans – to provide families with that peace of mind when ‘the time comes’ is without any doubt something I would recommend to everyone!
During my days off or at weekends, I love long family walks with my two miniature schnauzers or simply binge-watching true crime documentaries on Netflix.
Management Team Advisor
I’m a very proud Carrickfergus man, having been born in the then Cottage Hospital in the early 1950s and grew up in Sunnylands. My late father Robert (Bob) Mulholland started our family business in 1966 and I officially joined the company a few years later. We have been privileged to have served families throughout Carrickfergus and the East Antrim area. Fifty five years later, Mulhollands continue to support bereaved families in their time of greatest need.
Many local people will still comment on the years we provided taxis, coach hirer and haulage services. However in the mid seventies, we decided to concentrate our efforts in the Funeral Directing and Wedding Limousine hirer side of the business.
It was in 1982, we purchased our excising premises in Irish Quarter South Carrickfergus and developed in into a modern Funeral Home which includes private rest rooms and office accommodation.
From a family perspective, the most significant development took place in 1988 when the business was sold to Funeral Partners. This lead to many changes but I believe the high standards and ethos laid down by my father are still being maintained: “Caring is at the heart of our approach.”
I looked on it as a great honour and privilege to serve so many families over fifty years. Although I retired in 2017, I have recently agreed to assist and support the management team and staff at Mulhollands in an advisory role. It’s nice to serve my community again even in this small but important way.
Funeral Arranger
I’ve been employed in the Funeral profession for six years. This new career path followed a work background in the Civil Service, followed by an administerial role in the Aerospace industry.
After qualifying as a Counsellor, I decided to pursue a career which was more person centred and compassionate with others.
Working in the Funeral profession alongside team colleagues to help families arrange a funeral for their loved ones is an honour and privilege.
We take pride in everything we do. Our aim is that everyone who works for Funeral Partners shares our values.
Our business exists to help the bereaved to make fitting arrangements for their loved one’s last journey and to provide lasting memories for family and friends.
We do this with a positive, caring and understanding approach.
We value diversity and treat everyone with the same respect, courtesy and dignity.
We are a professional organisation and we strive to achieve the highest possible standards in everything we do and to improve upon these standards continuously.
We accept responsibility for our actions both as a company and as individuals.
We believe that we can only achieve our goals by working together in partnership with client families, suppliers and our employees.
