Amy was amazing at the Woodingdean Cooperative Funeral Care.   The funeral arrangements/plans from start to finish were explained so well.  Amy put us at ease straightaway in the  first meeting as she was so friendly & helpful so it was a fairly easy process, particularly when your a little anxious & upset.  We all said how good  the whole team Amy, Tracey & John, the Celebrant were.   In turn they couldn’t have done enough for us.  They all did us proud at a time of sadness.  All very professional too.  We would certainly recommend the Woodingdean team to anyone & we’ve all said that.  I have already recommended a friend  but she lives in Eastbourne & has just made arrangements with the Coop there.  Well done to Amy because you made a painful experience organising a funeral so easy because of how you are.  Linda (Barbara Burton’s daughter.)

  • 5 Karen Voak 14th Mar 2021

    Unfortunately the second time in a year I have used this service. I did not hesitate to contact Amy at Woodingdean branch again and she has been a gem. Amy is kind friendly and efficient and makes everything easier

  • 5 Alan Hobden 28th Feb 2021

    Amy and her team in Woodingdean were extremely helpful, supportive and efficient from start to finish. I would not hesitate to recommend their services.

  • 5 Marion Wilcock 23rd Feb 2021

    We had a prepaid funeral plan organised a couple of years ago, to avoid having to make arrangements at a difficult time. This decision proved to be a very good one. We made just one phone call and all the arrangements fell into place.
    We saw my Mum in lovely surroundings in the chapel of rest, and we encouraged to make arrangements for the service which were personal to us.
    Everyone was very kind and attentive - Thank you.

  • 5 Mark Smith 23rd Feb 2021

    Amy at the Woodingdean office could not have been more understanding and supportive . She took all of our needs into consideration and the whole experience was so well done from our initial contact to the orgnasation of the day, the recommendation of the Celebrant and the staff on the day at the chapel.

  • 5 Julie Coleby 16th Feb 2021

    Wonderful caring and helpful people. Amy was a star from start to finish . Andrea before her was a an amazing first contact at a very dark and distressing time. On the day Tracey was caring and super professional. A first class service from everyone from start to finish. Cannot praise all involved enough. Thank you

  • 5 Peter Salvage 8th Feb 2021

    Excellent all round service, can't thank you all enough.
    Peter.

  • 5 Sue Gumbrill 4th Feb 2021

    During such sad times, Amy was the one person who made the whole experience of arranging my dad's funeral, a very relaxed time. Having to telephone lots of different offices to report my dad's death, I was getting very anxious about calling the funerals directors. But I needn't have worried. Amy made the whole experience a very calm and caring time. She was absolutely my rock. So friendly, sympathetic, kind and a great listening ear. Thank you is not enough.

  • 5 Mark Collins 1st Feb 2021

    It was a great funeral and we were all very pleased with the way it all went. We were able to take pictures we didn't think we could at and everyone loved them. It is a day we will not forget and it was put together very well and we had beautiful sunshine. Thank you

  • 5 Lynn Wood 27th Jan 2021

    Excellent service ... We were taken very good care of and nothing was too much trouble ... Both Amy and Rachel were excellent.

  • 5 Laura Walton 26th Jan 2021

    Amy was brilliant and so helpful. She answered all my questions and really helped to take the stress out of a terrible situation. I can’t recommend her enough.

  • 5 Gary Dove 26th Jan 2021

    The team at Woodingdean were brilliant. They couldn't do enough for my brother & myself regarding the funeral of our father in the organisation beforehand & on the day. They were extremely kind & professional.

  • 5 Neil Tory 18th Jan 2021

    Amy was lovely, very helpful, kind and compassionate. She made a difficult situation as easy as possible. Thank you, we would definitely recommend Co-op Funeral care.

  • 4 Gillian Reed 20th Dec 2020

    Very good all round service. Unfortunately we did not notice the glaring error concerning my late fathers date of birth as my dear mother and I were grieving considerably at the time. The correct date in question was given to yourself and Mr J. Bamber, however the wrong date went to print. The error was noticed at a later date by a family member which upset my mother no end.

    Yours faithfully
    Mr S.A. Reed
