Really good, professional, caring people who dealt with us directly for the funeral arrangements. I would highly recommend Coop at Workington and certainly use them again when needed. They went over and above and showed continuous compassion at all stages. I cannot thank them enough for all of the help and guidance we needed at such a devastating time in our lives.

  • 5 Nicola Mcallister 19th Jun 2023

    Absolute professional service , nothing was too much trouble and the Workington branch went above and beyond . Would highly recommend 

  • 5 Eileen Bold 27th Feb 2023

    Absolutely brilliant caring service from Jeanette and Sheena.  Couldn't have asked for more.  Jeanette's suggestion of the more personal touch for the top of the coffin was inspirational.  Even her concern when she drove passed me as part of another funeral when I was out walking my dog.  Would definitely recommend to my friends.

  • 5 David Hardie 23rd Jan 2023

    Right from the start these people were excellent. Every detail taken care of. Very professional indeed with some very nice touches. Communication was very good all through and the service had people coming to me to saying how happy it made them feel that a person could be given such a tribute. Well recommended thank you!!

  • 5 John Pearson 16th Jan 2023

    From our first contact with the Team at Co-op Funeralcare, Workington to our last the whole team have been absolutely fantastic. They have demonstrated an excellent level of professionalism, compassion and level of care to the whole family.
    We particularly appreciated the number of times the team contacted my father throughout the process to check on his well being and to keep him informed on the ongoing arrangements. A fantastic team that you should be proud to employ.

  • 5 Sharon Denny 9th Jan 2023

    Excellent, caring, thoughtful, kind service from Jeannette and Theresa.  Thank you so much for making a difficult time a little easier.

  • 5 Leslie Telford 8th Jan 2023

    Sorry guys am still a little lost for words at the moment but here goes. My wife and i talked about this about six months ago and decided on direct cremation and this will be for me when its my time my stepson already has his orders. This type of funeral to me is hassle free and it helped me alot, Although cheaper i found it more personal. I was called most days up to the funeral date to make sure i was ok and this really made my day. To me its a very special kind of person to do a job like this and are worth their weight in gold. My wife now sits on the mantle waiting for me. Thankyou co-op and god bless you.

  • 5 Marilyn Lancaster 19th Dec 2022

    I can not fault the Co-op at all for the way the dealt with my dad and the family. They were only a phone call away if we needed anything. The day of his funeral everything was handled with care and professionalism, and we as a family can't thank them enough.

  • 5 Margaret Reilly 19th Dec 2022

    Very good service altogether, from the organisation of the service to the funeral itself. We got everything we wanted and it was all done with great respect and care. Sheena has been so kind and caring and the lady who conducted the funeral procession was just lovely. Thank you

    It was the 1st time I have had to do this and didn't know where to start but thankfully the staff at my workington office guided me through it I received so much respect guidance with every decision I had to make I truly would have been lost without them the day of the service was carried out with such professionalism I was overwhelmed as where others commented on this
    So I would personal like to thank you all for everything you done for me and my family again thank you so much

  • 5 Christine Lawson 25th Oct 2022

    My sons funeral was perfectly arranged by Jeanette and Teresa..It was fully compiled to the families wishes..It was a sudden death and I was not prepared for the expense of a funeral but I was not put under any pressure by the team and explained costs fairly and that put both myself and granddaughter at ease to be able to give him,family and friends the send off he deserved..We would recommend the Co-op funeral services very highly..Christine Lawson ..

  • 5 Jackie Hunter 20th Sep 2022

    Can’t thank Jeanette and the team enough for their support, their care and their help at a very difficult time for the family. I have to say it was more like talking to a friend that knew what she was doing and guiding us through the process- thank you so much Jeanette
