  • 5 Robert West 3rd Oct 2022

    The people at Co-Op Funeralcare were very helpful and we were talked through the whole process of arranging the funeral and what would happen on the day. We were given the contact details of a celebrant.
    We were contacted on the morning of the funeral to see if we had any questions or worries. The service went very smoothly, and the celebrant was excellent. We were contacted again the next day to see if we needed any more help.
    Thank you for all your help, from our initial enquiry to the day of the funeral and beyond.
