    Francesca and Paula looked after my mum, but they also looked after me and the rest of my family - really adding a personal touch. They were absolutely fabulous, and the outcome was everything we hoped for. 
    Obviously, I hope not to need them again soon but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

    First class experience on what was a very difficult day.

  • 5 Colin Millward 7th Nov 2022

    All our family thought the service was excellent and we had the opportunity to include all the important aspects of Dad's life. Working with the team at CO-OP Urmston, Glenys, Cathy, and Francesca, made the whole service a wonderful experience. Nothing we requested was too much trouble, which led to a memorable reflection of a life well lived.

  • 5 Simon Chapman 1st Nov 2022

    This is unfortunately the 2nd time I have used Coop Urmston funeral care this year. Once for a full funeral and once for a cremation only. Both times the service from both Francesca and Glenys was superb and was handled with grace and understanding.
    I do not believe you could get better service while dealing with such a traumatic event.

  • 1 Tracy Outhwaite 15th Oct 2022

    Don't arrange a direct cremation through the Co-op funeral services in Urmston. Very poor service.
