  • 5 Judith Miller 5th Jul 2022

    I was very impressed with the service WE Pinder provided from the day they collected my husband from the house to our parting at the hotel. At every stage they all took the trouble to do everything the way I wanted. I was very pleased that the funeral was the celebration of his life that I had planned and it would not have been so successful without John Pinder's professional expertise, knowledge of the options available, and invaluable advice.

  • 5 Lesley Grannon 19th Jun 2022

    WE Pinders we’re truly amazing. They supported my brother and I every step of the journey for our father’s funeral.  From our first call to them, Michael (our key contact there) guided us through the entire process.  They liaised with the hospital where dad died, took him into their care,  helped us with all the practical decisions about the funeral arrangements, organised the service details at the crematorium and coordinated with the team catering for the wake.  They.were there for us every step of the way.  The whole team always acted with care and understanding.  I can highly recommend them to anyone who has suffered a bereavement and needs a compassionate and professional team to take care of funeral arrangements. Six stars.

  • 5 Sean Hawkins 11th Jun 2022

    Very professionally run family business, helped every step of the way through this very tough time, I can’t recommend W E Pinder enough, they are exceptional. 

  • 5 Lesley Lettice 31st May 2022

    From start to finish was absolutely spot on, nothing was any trouble, I was made to feel part of the family, I was informed of everything that was happening.
    There are not enough words to say thank you, you did an amazing job, and my dad would have loved his send off.
    Once again I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    The service we received was so personal and supportive from start to finish. We had no idea where to begin but the visit from John was swift and very comprehensive, well beyond what you would expect from a funeral director. John made it so we had to think about very little and took care of all arrangements for us, giving full advice and guidance documents on the things he couldn't do for us to make it as easy as possible. We felt our dearly departed family member was treat with respect and as an individual again, unlike our experience at the hospital. We're now looking at arrangements for a stone with pinders, again receiving a personal and respectful visit from John. Its not a service we like to think we'll need but when you do I highly recommend Pinders.

  • 5 Robert Bell 19th May 2022

    Professional service throughout, cannot thank you enough, at these stressful times WE Pinder take care of everything you need, thank you

  • 5 David Graham 10th May 2022

    John and his team have been absolutely wonderful for us.  By giving clear and thoughtful advice, he helped me fully understand the requirements and totally put me at ease in an obviously stressful situation.  I have nothing but praise and thanks for John and will not hesitate to recommend them in the future. 

  • 5 Pamela Carr 30th Apr 2022

    Pinders recommendations and advice was invaluable. We couldn't thank them enough for all the care, consideration and repect shown to our mother and ourselves. People commented it was the best funeral they'd ever been to. You can't have better recommendation than that.

  • 5 Andrea Featherstone 16th Apr 2022

    Such a professional, personal service with attention to detail. Would highly recommend.

  • 5 Aimee Mennie 9th Apr 2022

    Thankyou very much for everything you did for my mums funeral. You made her look amazing and so peaceful and everything was brilliant. 

  • 5 Gary Hamilton 28th Mar 2022


    John and his staff helped to guide us through one of the most difficult times in our lives, the passing of our Son Daniel.
    Daniel was cared for with all the Care, Dignity and Respect that we wanted for our son.
    With John’s guidance we were able to give Daniel the send-off that we know he would have liked.
    Thank You.

  • 5 Sharon Concannon 22nd Mar 2022

  • 5 Zoe Harland 11th Mar 2022

  • 5 Jean Hanley 8th Mar 2022

    Could not ask for better. Thanks to you all .

  • 5 John Skelton 6th Mar 2022

    I honestly can't put into worlds how incredible Pinders have been from start to finish.

    Extremely professional, dependable and attentive to every last detail no matter how small.

    We had Michael as our point of contact and although I don't doubt they all care the same, it was immediately clear at first point of contact that he gets it, he understands your loss and he gives every ounce of empathy and sympathy to you in such a genuine way.

    Although we never really do plan for these things until its too late, Pinders took so much hassle and work out of what was needed and allowed us more time as a family to concentrate on the small details and allowing us time to grieve.

    Once again, thanks for all you have done, you've been amazing at our time of need.

    Warm regards, John Skelton & family.
