  • 4 Elizabeth Hall 3rd Jan 2024

    On the day of the funeral the service was excellent. Unfortunately for us a few errors were made in the early planning, making us feel rather uneasy. However Joanne soon sorted out the fine details and we regained confidence enough before the day of the funeral to relax and take in what was happening.

    Co Operative Funeralcare of Whitegate Drive Blackpool, in partnership with Steven Street, Alexandria, Scotland, provided a professional, caring, friendly and affordable service, overseeing the repatriation of my late wife from Blackpool to her ancestral home in Scotland for her funeral. It meant a great deal to me, her husband in Blackpool, and to her family in Scotland, that she was laid to rest among her loved ones in the place where she was born. Both my wife and the family were very well supported throughout, and the process of planning and delivery of the funeral was made accessible and straightforward for the family. The Co Operative is a highly regarded brand in which anyone can trust, and I would heartily recommend the offices of Whitegate Drive and Steven Street Alexandria to anyone. Many thanks to all the staff, Lucy, Jess, Joanne and Tom, of Blackpool, and Natasha and Cheryl, and their drivers, of Alexandria who made it all possible.

  • 5 Dawn Whitaker 20th Feb 2023

    Lucy at Whitegate Drive Coop has been just wonderful and is very good at her job. From our first meeting, she was genuinely interested in who our beloved mum was, and throughout the process of arranging visits to the chapel and mum’s celebration of life, she was thoughtful, kind, respectful and focussed on helping us do the best for mum. Lucy went above and beyond in all matters for our lovely mum and ourselves, and I’ll be eternally grateful to her for all she did to help us during the worst period of our lives. With Lucy’s help we turned what would have been a horrendous day, into a happy and loving celebration of mum’s life.. Xxx
