Thank you for all your support throughout the difficult process of planning and carrying out a funeral service.  Rebecca’s approach was wonderfully supportive, caring and very organised.  The day, led by Graham, went off very well and was appreciated by the congregation.

    Everyone who dealt with my family and myself was very friendly and caring. Everything was well explained and we were put at our ease at this very difficult time. We were very satisfied with the service before and during the funeral. A well deserved rating of excellent.

  • 5 Ian Boon 2nd Oct 2023

    Excellent service from the time we first met Rebecca, who was absolutely brilliant, through to when we left the Funeral cars at the Wake. Roger, who we met to discuss the order of service etc. was also a pleasure to meet and we received so many comments regarding his words and compassion throughout. Thanks to all who made my Fathers funeral special.

  • 5 Pauline Cain 18th Sep 2023

    Rebecca couldn’t have looked after us better, she put my daughters & myself at ease. Explaining everything clearly & precisely giving us advice where needed. Answered all our questions with confidence. 
    Everything we wanted was delivered just as we asked. We would definitely recommend Co op funeral care as all our worries were looked after. 
    We left Alan in their care with love & confidence. 
    Mrs Pauline Cain & daughters Paula & Susan. 

  • 5 Donna Slater 24th Jul 2023

    Not just excellent, but above and beyond. From the minute we walked in Rebecca McDonnell just got us, and was empathetic, understanding and incredibly helpful. She was knowledgeable and nothing felt like a problem. We felt safe and secure, knowing we were in good hands just this distressing time. The recommendation of the reverend was perfect, and elevated the service. The whole process was stress free during the most stressful period of our lives. 

  • 5 Paula Butler 20th Jun 2023

    All the arrangements went perfectly, many thanks.

  • 5 Natalie Elizabeth Roberts 20th Jun 2023

    It was so lovely liaising with Rebecca. She was so understanding, compassionate and attentive about the whole arrangements. Every time I called to make adjustments to flowers, the order of service etc nothing was too much trouble for her. Having spoken to her almost every day for two weeks I felt I made a new friend. She excels at her job and I would absolutely recommend the Co Op in Swanley to anyone else who needs to arrange a funeral. 

  • 4 Gary Woodley 27th Feb 2023

    Overall good service and staff friendly. However, communication could have been better. Was told 4 days before funeral that coffin chosen was not available. Also Celebrant was changed without prior notice. The new Celebrant contacted me before office let me know of the change.

    Still have not had Johns Ashes returned to me yet. This has been too long now and family our asking what is going on.

    Kind and friendly first contact. All matters dealt with proficiently and professionally. Had every confidence the day would go well... and it did. Personally I felt completely supported in what I was trying to achieve.

  • 5 Paula Hines 16th Jan 2023

    From the start of the process to the very end we were looked after with professional kindness.  I can’t thank Rebecca enough for making our painful experience stress free.  The celebrant and undertaker that Rebecca chose for us were incredibly professional and have us a wonderful service also.
    Thank you Co-op and the whole team.
