The staff were lovely, kind, considerate and very helpful. We knew what we wanted and we were helpfully guided with no "hard sell". Communication was good so we knew what was happening when. A good experience.

  • 5 Karan Harrison 24th Oct 2022

    Very kind friendly staff. Julie was very helpful and kept in contact to arrange the funeral even though she was on annual leave. She rang a few days later to check that we were all OK. I would highly recommend them.

  • 5 Jackie White 17th Oct 2022

    I could not have asked for a more caring, helpful lady as Julie was. From the first time my daughters and I went to see her to a few days after the funeral she was always there for us. Phoning to ask if I was ok, it meant so much. I would recommend the Co op funeral care 100%. Thank you.

    The service, and attention to detail from the Borehamwood branch was outstanding, only dealt with them over the phone. We met Julie at the Leighton Buzzard branch, she was welcoming, put us at ease, was professional but friendly with it. Excellent service. Many many thanks

    The Service I received from my funeral director was not only compassionate but extremely professional. We wanted to create a funeral that my dad would have wanted and thanks to the funeral director and staff we got exactly what we wanted. Thank you very much

  • 5 David Millett 11th Jul 2022

    Julie and her staff could not have been more helpful and everything went smoothly.

  • 4 Kim Greatrex 5th Jul 2022

    I cannot fault the service from Julie at the Branch she was very professional and extremely helpful, especially as this was the first time we had to arrange a funeral.

    My only criticism would be about the national number we called who advised us that Leighton Buzzard was our closest Branch, however there is a Branch in Aylesbury which is my dads hometown. Unsure why we were not directed to this one which would have made arranging this funeral a lot easier.

  • 5 Samantha Lanouette 4th Jul 2022

    Very caring, sensitive and personal. I could not fault anything with this amazing company.
