Julie was very supportive and the whole process went as planned

Simon Geoffrey Potter 7th Mar 2024

From start to finish (and we didn't have a funeral pre-arranged) everything was spot-on. Can't thank Roy enough for his professionalism, courtesy and support to the family throughout the process and also Andy (the Celebrant - humanist) who we really felt spent time to get to know Michael through our stories, another lovely fella. It seems daft to say it but I know mum will be planning her funeral through the Coop after the support and excellent communication we got. Thank you.

  • 5 Elaine Willmore 26th Feb 2024

    Very helpful and sensitive staff with thoughtful suggestions. The anxiety was significantly decreased as I was contacted regularly to check things - but each time the first question was "how are you " . On the day the funeral director was extremely curteous and respectful. This is the first time I've organised a funeral but I would certainly recommend the Co-op.

  • 4 Roy Weston 8th Nov 2023

    Overall a really good experience. Co-op staff were accessible, professional, knowledgable, helpful and kind. My mother's funeral was everything we wanted and went without a hitch. Sourcing a great bagpiper was an unexpected bonus.
    Many thanks to Roy, Julie and the Co-op team.

    One area for improvement would be more expertise/familiarity with outsourced tech aspects of the process, ie: choosing, producing and approving the order of service; clearly communicating photo tribute & streaming specs and options, so that these can be more clearly described to more tech-aware customers. To their credit Co-op staff always remained professional and never became defensive even when put under pressure on these issues, but it might be beneficial to have some extra training or specialised tech resource to call on as this becomes a more mainstream part of the funeral offering.

  • 5 Debbie Heads 31st Oct 2023
