The service we received from the staff at the Carlisle Branch was excellent.

Peter Cochrane 16th May 2022

Without the help of Jan, Sharon and Siobhan, this sad time would have been very difficult, and the family and I can't thank them all enough for their support and knowledge. This is the second funeral they have arranged for our family in the last two years or so, and both have been to a very high profesional standard. I would recommend Coop Funeral care at Spencer Street, Carlisles to anybody. Our thanks to all the staff.

  • 5 Elizabeth Law 20th Apr 2022

    Staff were friendly and considerate throughout all procedures, explaining each
    step of the process and allowing time to think before having to make  decisions.
    Help was there when needed but i was allowed to feel ‘in charge’ of decisions being made, which was reassuring.  An excellent team.

  • 5 Carol Holywell 20th Apr 2022

  • 5 Christine Falb 10th Jan 2022

    Very professional all the way through, helpful and friendly, every aspect of the funeral was carefully planned and discussed with me. All went very smoothly. Grateful thanks!

  • 5 Graham Stockdale 10th Jan 2022

    Overall very good very professional and respectful would highly recommend this service to anyone

  • 5 Sue Annis 6th Jan 2022

    The Carlisle team were incredibly supportive, professional and helpful during a time of grief, when our Mother passed away. Sharon, Siobhan and Jan kept in constant contact, keeping us updated on what was happening at all times and acted with great empathy and understanding, making a difficult situation and time in our lives easier to deal with.
    There were some initial concerns with the responsiveness of the printer for the order of service and whilst this was out of the local teams hands, they did everything they could to escalate these issues with the printer. This is positive feedback for the local team but maybe an area to look into from a Head Office perspective
    We couldn't fault the Carlisle team, they were very respectful, in tune and sensitive to the situation and went out of their way to ensure that our family's wishes were met.
    Should we ever need funeral care services in the area again we would definitely use the Carlisle Co-Operative team.
    Please pass on our thanks and gratitude to the team

  • 5 Christopher Graham 6th Dec 2021

    This was an extremely difficult time for me facing making funeral arrangements on my own. The staff at the Carlisle branch were so kind and considerate showing genuine empathy. Jan who organised the funeral almost held my hand through the entire process, the service was beautiful. Not only Jan deserves praise but also the other members of staff I had contact with, Sharon and Wendy who helped me through the viewing process and the financial side with their kindness. I can't praise them enough.

  • 5 Malcolm Cooper 6th Dec 2021

    A highly professional, efficient and sympathetic service provided by the very friendly and dedicated team. Real care taken to ensure that all aspects of the complicated funeral arrangements were handled smoothly. Careful and regular briefings throughout. Altogether an excellent experience.
