    Jane the funeral arranger was warm, helpful and very efficient.  She really listened to what we wanted. On the day of the funeral Peter and his team were faultless.

  • 5 Janet Wilson 5th Feb 2024

    Our family have always used Fairhursts so there was no hesitation choosing them for my Dad's funeral. From the first moment I phoned them on the day he passed away I received nothing but kind, compassionate service from each member of staff I dealt with. We mostly dealt with Jane and Peter, both were lovely and made such a sad occasion a lot easier to bear. Happy to have left my Dad in their care and would also recommend Fairhursts for that personal touch.

  • 5 Claire Costello 5th Feb 2024

    From start to finish wonderful care, consideration and service. Jane has been excellent throughout. On the day the funeral Director Peter and Jordan were fantastic. We honestly couldn’t fault anything. You gave Dad a wonderful send off, he would have loved it and he was a fussy devil we loved. Many thanks again.

    Big thanks to Jane who organized the funeral 
    It went really well and we were glad we used you 

  • 5 Malcolm Valchero 20th Jun 2022

    The kindness and dedication of all the staff that I’ve come into contact with at this difficult time has been truly amazing.  Jane in the office deserves a mention, her empathy is matched only by her organisational skills.  Peter the funeral director on the day was also excellent.  All aspects of the funeral were outstanding and everything run like clockwork.  The celebrant Mia was truly amazing, I had to remind myself at times that she wasn’t part of the family!  The tribute page has also been a source of incredible support for me.  Thanks so much for everything that everyone at Fairhursts has done for me.  Choosing them to organise my late wife was genuinely one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, thank you.

  • 5 Charles Saccani 20th Apr 2022

    My mother left specific instructions for a very simple but personal service. Fairhursts have been fantastic in ensuring all her wishes were carried out perfectly. Everyone in the team has been respectful, empathetic and supportive. The pre-care, service and aftercare have all been brilliant. It's been a very stressful few months for our family and Fairhursts have played a major role in making things easier for us.
