Jenny Coulton 7th Mar 2026

We were so lucky to have Donna, who helped us to give Mum a funeral she would have wanted. The care and attention to detail. Everything was perfect and we would highly recommend them. There were light hearted moments with Donna, she knew exactly how to conduct herself at such a sad time. A Slaters & Sons were wonderful. Thank you Jenny and Carl Coulton and Andrew Beardmore.

Alison Price 13th Jan 2026

From the first moment I met Donna I knew our family was in safe hands. Sorting out a funeral for your father is a difficult task, however Donna’s professionalism and compassion meant that I didn’t have to worry about anything. Thank you so much to Donna and the team at Slaters, from the bottom of our hearts, you made what was a very difficult day much easier to bear. Best wishes.  Alison, Jayne and Elizabeth xxx
