  • 5 Anne Edwardes 20th Feb 2024

    Very professional, very caring and very smooth - from collecting mum's body to paying the bill. Even some laughs! Thank you Belinda and team.

  • 5 George Spink 19th Feb 2024

    Belinda led a caring and efficient team who went well beyond my expectations and added thoughtful touches and assistance throughout. Thank you

  • 5 Irene Dixon 19th Feb 2024

    Andrew and all staff show a caring commitment towards their clients.Frequent phone calls have kept me informed as to proceedings  and also to check on  my well being. There has been just the right amount of professionalism and friendliness. They cannot do enough for you. I have been more than happy with the service I have received and would not hesitate to recommend them. 

  • 5 Ann Denison 13th Feb 2024

    All the staff were so supportive at such a difficult time. I cannot thank them enough.

  • 5 Paul Whitley 12th Feb 2024

    Absolutely wonderful, caring people.

  • 5 Julie Montgomery 12th Feb 2024

    Very very pleased with how the day went, very professional & respectful.

    2 small things that could have gone better, (1) when I arrived to the waiting room it was a bit of a shock to have so many people to have to 'wade' through. If i had been instructed that the coffin would be taken from the other end, I would have entered here avoiding having to talk with people pre-funeral. It may sound like a trivial matter or a bit obvious, but I just wasn't ready to talk with people until afterwards & didn't think about it myself. (2) The Celebrant was very 'pushy' about wanting to say the Lords Prayer & Ashes to Ashes despite us saying Dad wasn't religious. I had to tell him no 3 times very assertively & my sister had to tell him as well, before he would accept it. If Dad was religious we would have had a vicar.

  • 5 Alexandra Nejad 12th Feb 2024

    Ron and the team were absolutely fantastic in arranging my mother's funeral. It was obviously a very testing time for us all and the team were understanding and kind at all times. They really made organising the funeral an easy experience.

  • 5 Brenda Firth 7th Feb 2024

    Huge thank you to Belinda and the team at HH Birch for the outstanding care and support shown to us on the passing of Dad. The whole experience was made so much easier to bear due to their professionalism, compassion, empathy and guidance, mixed in with some humour (which Dad would have loved).
    We couldn't have asked for anything more and the funeral was exactly as Dad wanted it to be. You did him proud so we thank you again for that.

  • 5 Jacquie Pollard 1st Feb 2024

  • 5 John Cowell 29th Jan 2024

  • 5 James Cockrem 29th Jan 2024

    We can't thank Belinda and team enough for the care and support shown to us. Her guidance at such a difficult time was amazing. We were given as much time as we needed to settle on arrangements for a dear dad with patience and uplifting care. We will always be grateful and would recommend Birch funeral care wholeheartedly. Do not hesitate to call them in your hour of need, you will be in the best of hands to support and guide you through the most difficult of times. Thank you again, Val&Adrian Cockrem

    This was service as good as any anyone could expect.
    Well done to all involved.

  • 4 Janice Arkinstall 2nd Jan 2024

    Just a couple of things:- 
    As the 4 grandchildren were walking in with the coffin - we felt that the congregation should have been seated 1st. 
    Also at the end of the service - the family should have gone out 1st then the congregation so the family could greet everyone coming out. 
    Otherwise everything else went very smoothly thank you. 

  • 5 Michael Lightowler 2nd Jan 2024
