    Pinders have been amazing throughout, from the first phone call through till our final goodbye. They made the hardest time of our lives that little bit easier.

  • 5 Hannah Parry 7th May 2025

    Our family had the pleasure of meeting with Michael, from Pinders, who helped us plan my Nanna’s funeral. From the moment he met with our family, we were put at ease and immediately felt like everything was under control. Each element of the funeral was planned to perfection, even down to the colour of the ties that the Pinders team were wearing. A well organised, fitting service, which reflected her life. We can’t thank Michael enough for all his support in the planning and run up to the day. We would highly recommend the W. E. Pinders family business. 

  • 5 Kirsty Bowser 2nd May 2025

  • 5 Carol Moullali 18th Apr 2025

    From the first telephone call to W.E. Pinder & Son they were so warm and welcoming. The stress and worry of such a sad occasion for us was taken away by the wonderful services of Michael. He came to our home for the initial meeting and from then everything was arranged seamlessly. The day ran perfectly from start to finish due to the Pinder professionalism. Nothing was too much trouble for Michael and his drivers. My Husband had a superb funeral all thanks to W.E. Pinder & Son. First Class service from start to finish. Thank you Michael for everything. The Moullali Family

  • 5 Nicholas Katuszonek 13th Apr 2025

    We can’t thank Tom and the fellow staff at W E Pinder enough for the care, compassion, and professionalism they showed during a difficult time. From the very first conversation, they made the process feel manageable, treating us with genuine empathy and patience. Every detail was handled thoughtfully and respectfully, allowing us to focus on honouring our Mother's memory without additional stress.

    Their guidance was clear and supportive throughout, and they were always available to answer our questions, no matter how small. The service itself was beautifully arranged, and it was clear that they truly understood how important it was to get everything just right.

    I would wholeheartedly recommend W E Pinder to anyone looking for a funeral service that is sensitive, dignified, and personal.

  • 5 Graeme Stuart Mann 12th Apr 2025

    Thank you so much for such an efficient, caring service for our dad. Michael was excellent, took over the organisation and guided us through the whole process with compassion but also with some humour. The whole funeral service went very smoothly. Many thanks also to Tom for putting together the photo reels with music.
    Cannot recommend highly enough.
