    The whole process, from initial contact with funeral director right through to the actual cremation was carried out in a professional, caring and friendly manner. Can't thank Consett staff and Funeral Director, Barbara, enough.

    Just wonderful thank you so much Barbara and Claire. A very professional job and extremely sympathetic. Couldn't of asked for anything better. Thank you. Julie.

  • 3 William Allison 29th Dec 2021

    My score of average refers to confusion with music which was rectified only when I asked to confirm the arrangements the day before and the paperwork had been printed off incorrectly. The celebrant was excellent on the day but again had I not confirmed the reading the day before we would have potentially had the wrong poem read out. Staff at the branch especially Claire answering the phones were professional and sympathetic .
