    You won't meet two people Donna & David more suitable for their job, from our first meeting and throughout the process, they were very caring and sympathetic explaining in depth each procedure, allowing me to take on board what was going to happen and in what order as this was my first time I have had to organise such an event.
    Professional people who are genuinely kind-hearted and I thank you so much.

    The funeral was prearranged by funeral plan. Choosing the plan was straightforward and David was incredibly helpful. On the day everything went smoothly and the celebrant they arranged was perfect. I felt the team at Droylsden really helped me at a difficult time. Can't praise them enough.

    The team did a wonderful job looking after my mum and our family’s wishes. Always thoughtful and respectful in all they did. Nothing was too much trouble and they helped us give Mum a lovely send off. 

  • 1 Amy Davenport 18th Sep 2023

    This was emailed to the funeral home at 2pm today. I still haven’t had a reply… 

    Good afternoon Donna. 

    Firstly I’d like to make you aware that myself and my brother will be making a complaint in regards to the way my mums funeral was handled.

    We don’t believe she wasn’t treated with the dignity and the care she deserved. 

    Could I please ask what date mums body was released by the coroner? There will be a date and time stamp on the email. 

    Nicola told me she sent the email on the 18th but you said you didn’t receive it until the 31st? 


    I’d also like to know the confusion between mum having paid her funeral plan in full and someone calling me whilst at the funeral home demanding payment? She actually told me to grab a pen and write down the amount. (I have already raised a complaint regarding this) 

    Could I ask why mum  didn’t arrive at the chapel of rest until the day before the funeral? I have several emails asking for updates.

    Can I ask if her nails were painted and he hair blown in? You promised me you would do that. But called in sick on the only day you had to do it?

    I also specifically asked for Nikki to be involved in my mums funeral, but this wasn’t requested either? 

    We would like answers to all of the questions above. We would also like a copy of the full complaints procedure. 

    I doubt I will get a reply. But I will be warning everyone on every platform of social media about this, and I have spoke to Samantha at the Manchester Evening News 

  • 5 Daniel Attoh 11th Sep 2023

    You were amazing in everything you did for us. Donna was very supportive and encouraging. She directed us appropriately and through her advice we had a wonderful burial for our brother. We will recommend co-op to others.

  • 5 Eunice Holdcroft 2nd Sep 2023

  • 5 Alice Kirwin 30th Jun 2023

    Superb - one of the worst times of our lives was made slightly easier because David and Donna helped us 

  • 5 Janet Malinowski 27th Feb 2023

    Both David and Donna went above and beyond to ensure my father had the funeral we wanted to give him. They handled all queries and requests in a patient and sympathetic manner. I would not hesitate to recommend their services.

  • 5 Debra Ollerhead 20th Feb 2023

    I would definitely recommend Coop funerals, they were nothing but spot on with everything. We were kept up to date and included in everything. They were polite and showed empathy without being over the top. Everyone we came into contact with throughout the whole thing from arranging the funeral to the service was  excellent.

  • 5 Ian Williams 23rd Jan 2023

    Couldn’t thank Donna and David enough for everything they did for myself and my family when my dad passed. They are both an amazing asset to the company.
