5 Nick Ware 23rd Dec 2025

From start to finish we had top tier respect and compassion from both James and Emma who dealt with all the funeral arrangements. It was a perfect service for our most loved family member. Couldn’t recommend a better funeral service. Knowing my nan was in the care of James whilst at the funeral home came with deep relief as we know she was well looked after during her short stay whilst casket and funeral preparations were taking place. When visiting our loved one we was treated with kindness and their deepest condolences came with every minute we was in the presence of any of the team at CFS. We couldn’t thank them all enough for their support and services

The service and personnel were fantastic, they went out of their way to accommodate our every need and wish. I knew from the initial phone conversation that this Funeral Services cared and were compassionate.
In a difficult time, with family loss, theses are the very people that make the task of saying goodbye to a loved one easier.
I would highly recommend their services

5 Katharine Armstrong 26th Nov 2025

James, Robert, Kate and the team have been really brilliant. Sensitively managing and supporting us through an unimaginable loss, nothing has been too much trouble. In particular the cremation service and memorial service both on the same day at a weekend were superbly supported. Thank you. 

5 Kim Mitchell 21st Nov 2025

You do an extremely difficult job, you made the most painful day go so smoothly. Mum would have been very happy with the way you and your team conducted her funeral. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Kim Mitchell

5 Annabelle Reeve-Safe 11th Nov 2025

Simon and his team are wonderful. Their care is outstanding. 

5 Malcolm Hedley 28th Oct 2025

From the first phone call Simon and his staff oozed the empathy we needed, and guided us through to a service fitting for our sister’s life. Her send off was nothing short of beautiful. We can’t thank all involved and especially Simon enough.

5 Gordon Racey 24th Oct 2025

We can't thank Simon and all the team at the Crescent Funeral Services enough, for all their care and dedication. They provided a first class service.

They were a great comfort to all the family, not only with the funeral arrangements themselves, but also with what to do and who to speak to for all the formalities and when.

Nothing was too much trouble. Elaine was looked after with such care and dignity, from leaving the house, to how well she was presented in the chapel of rest.

The team provided a beautiful presentation on arrival at the crematorium and treated Elaine with such care and attention.

We had a beautiful attended internment ceremony at the crematorium and James did an amazing job. It seemed very fitting for James to be there to lay Elaine to rest as he was the one who came to escort her to the Crescent chapel of rest at the start of her final journey.

Thank you all so much for your faultless care and service

Gordon, Lynne, Julie and all the Racey family.

5 Julie Sanders 13th Oct 2025

An incredible, caring and compassionate team who go above and beyond. Their service is faultless.

5 Emma Haines 5th Oct 2025

Simon and the team have been wonderful from the first phone call. It has been such a difficult time but we haven’t had to worry at all about the funeral. Thank you so much! 

5 Liz O'Brien 28th Sep 2025

All of the staff from Crescent Funeral Services have treated both the family and Andy with dignity and respect through the whole process. Simon came to meet with Andy and I a couple of days before he passed away so we could discuss together what Andy wanted to happen from his passing through to after the funeral. As a member of the military veteran community Andy had some very specific requests that Simon and the team worked very hard to accommodate and for which I am very grateful. Thank you.

5 David Tonkin 23rd Sep 2025

In times of great sadness you need guidance in the journey you are about to take. Simon and his staff helped us through this dreadful time in our lives with great empathy and professionalism and undoubted care for our late Mum. We are so thankful that  Crescent funeral service were with us. Thankyou so much, you will never know how much we appreciated your help.   

5 Louise McDowall 16th Sep 2025

Thank you all for your very kind, gentle, professional and empathetic approach.
It must be difficult in a role performed day in day out to understand that for the customer / client it is or will be perhaps the only time that they ever experience this journey. The funeral directors' and celebrant's experiences and knowledge are greatly appreciated and welcome.
Your professionalism and kindness shone through. We were / are all very grateful, thank you.

5 Julie Booth 9th Sep 2025

Excellent care and support throughout the whole process.

5 Clare Bramble 7th Sep 2025

Crescent Funeral Services were very helpful, kind and professional when we asked them to help with our Mothers funeral. 
Simon was understanding and supportive without being too sentimental. He was thorough with the preparations, listened to our wishes and made very helpful suggestions for the whole process. 
The funeral itself was exactly as we had asked and it felt as if the weight of the situation had been taken off the family allowing us to grieve and get  through the day without worry. From the drivers to the pall bearers  and the whole team at CFS our experience was a very positive one in difficult circumstances. 
Thanks also to John Rice-Lewis for the eulogy and to Shed flowers for their beautiful work. 
All in all an extremely positive experience for our family. 
We would definitely recommend CFS . 

5 Louise Bale 6th Sep 2025

Excellent service. All the team are focused on helping to make the funeral as stress-free as possible, and tailored to individual requests. Great communication at all stages. Patient and caring.

5 Anna Unwin 21st Aug 2025

Absolutely wonderful funeral directors! Looked after my father and my mother really well. Appreciate everything they’ve done. 

5 Mark Woolgar-Sephton 12th Aug 2025

James and his colleagues have provided excellent care to my father since his passing.
They have made a very stressful and emotional time more bearable, easing the burden on my family and organising everything for us.
Myself and my family cannot thank James and his colleagues enough for the care and compassion they have shown us.
I would highly recommend their services.
