Helpful friendly staff, looked after us at every stage.

We chose the Co-operative Funeral service in Tamworth a couple of years ago, after initially visiting 2 other local Funeral Directors, when the decision was made to advance book Mums funeral arrangements.

I had a consultation with Mandie Lynes (Planning & Memorial Consultant), and although I felt uneasy talking about mums funeral and going through details and particulars, found Mandie to be extremely caring and empathetic.
I also felt a reassuring calmness when I was inside of the premises.

Although unfortunately we did have to consider what the cost of Mums funeral would be due to circumstances, it never actually came into the equation in the end, the reassuring feel I got during the consultation was enough.

When mum sadly passed and we had to contact our Funeral Director, our emotions were all over the place and we didn't know which way to turn or what to do.

We dealt with Shelley Wall (Funeral Arranger) for pretty much everything. Shelley was wonderful, she guided us through it all, and helped and sorted so much for us along the way, in fact, too much to list here, so thankyou Shelley x

On the day of mums funeral, the hearse was clean and shiny, the team had put all mums flowers in, and the pall bearer/conductor was an extremely polite and professional gentleman called Andrew Abbott.
Andrew introduced himself and apart from other things he had to do, guided us through the service including, when to enter the chapel, where to stand, when to sit, when to leave etc - he was wonderful.

We had previously arranged with the Co-op for them to display on their easel, a memorial board of mum to sit by her casket during the service, which they were happy to arrange.
On the day itself, last minute when we arrived at the chapel, we asked whether it would be possible to display 30 or so sympathy cards, a lit up engraved heart and a few other items we'd brought with us in addition to the memorial board.
Andrew got straight onto it, liaised with chapel officials and sorted all this out for us.
He then arranged the safe return of it all to us, after the service had concluded.
It just all happened so smoothly. Thankyou Andrew

Mums funeral was a small gathering and we used the Co-operatives Mews Suite after the service for refreshments and a bite to eat. It's a wonderful room for smaller gatherings, and again the staff were polite and courteous.

Each and every member of staff we've dealt with from day 1, have been professional, caring, understanding and helpful, and as a team have ensured mums final journey went smoothly and respectfully - and that means the world to me.

Thankyou all

David, Heather & Matt

From the moment we first met with Tamworth Co-operative Funeral Service we were extremely impressed with their service and were very happy we had decided to use them. The team were not only professional and knowledgeable they were extremely kind and caring during a very sad time. They explained everything so well including on the day of the funeral, to ensure we were ok and understood everything clearly. We cannot thank the team enough and would highly recommend them to others. Thank you again.

5 Gina Humphries 27th Apr 2026

We decided to use the Coop funeral directors because they've always had a good reputation ,,, and we wasnt disappointed. Right from the start meeting Leah, she was lovely , very professional and caring she made us feel comfortable and at ease ,she listened to what my dad's wishes were and found exactly what he/ we wanted . We were kept informed and helped through a difficult process.
From the ladies who we spoke to in the office, to the guys who drove the hearse ,and Andrew who looked after everything when we got to the church .
They all made a very upsetting day go as smooth as it could of gone, giving my dad the send off he deserved.
A big thankyou to them all X

From our initial enquiry until the day of Mum's funeral, we were shown kindness, thoughtfulness and care. Nothing was too much trouble and no question left unanswered.
Everything about the funeral was perfect, the casket, flowers and the cars, and the reception at The Mews was excellent.
Every member of staff treated our family and our beloved Mum with professionalism and respect which made a dreadful time much easier.

Everyone at the Tamworth Co-Operative Funeral Service are professional, caring and respectful. They could not have done more to make Barrie’s funeral a fitting tribute. Lisa has been the perfect planner and made the family feel included in all decisions and we are thankful for her recommendations. Nick Upton is a fantastic celebrant he delivered a wonderful service and was also professional and respectful. Even though it was a sad occasion we feel Barrie had a truly fitting send off. Thank you.
