Everything done simply and efficiently with the right amount of support versus privacy, with warm and friendly staff.

Ann Kirkman 17th Feb 2025

Absolutely brilliant. They took all of the pressure off us and arranged the day to run SO smoothly, and with the deepest of sympathy, dignity and respect that I can’t recommend these directors enough during the toughest time of our lives.  Thank you so much  Ann

We had a number of meetings with Donna at your Uttoxeter office to plan my father's funeral to ensure everything went smoothly. Donna helped us at every stage up to and on the day of the funeral. We were most grateful for her advice and patience. We would have no hesitation recommending A Slater & Sons to friends and associates.

  • 5 Janet Webster 7th Nov 2024

    John and his team were there for us from the beginning. They were very caring and compassionate, but always professional. There for us when we needed advice and guidance. Nothing was too much trouble. They took the worry away from us when arranging what we had to do after our sad loss, and helped us through everything. The funeral itself was as perfect as a funeral could be. Would highly recommend.

  • 5 James McDonald 2nd Nov 2024

    A Slater & Sons were highly recommended to us by the local community after a poll on social media.  Being 300 miles away I required a funeral direct I could trust. John and Donna were so accommodating to my extensive wish list, communication was first class, nothing was a bother.  They excelled in everything, their meticulous planning, quality of service and materials was the best.  I left a lot of trust in John and Donna and they surpassed my expectations.  I can’t thank them enough.  The people of Uttoxeter and Ashbourne area are so lucky to have such a fantastic funeral director. On behalf of all the family thank you, you made a difficult day special.

  • 5 Nigel Potter 28th Oct 2024

    Fantastic service from the first call. Slater’s organised everything for Dads funeral. They are truly excellent at what they do.

  • 5 Nicola Harrison 10th Jul 2024

    Wonderful service from start to finish . John and Donna were really nice about everything and extremely helpful. Thankyou so much

  • 5 Sarah Askew 15th Jun 2024

    Can’t thank Slaters enough. They enabled us to give dad the send off he deserved. The service they gave all the way through was excellent, guiding us through the whole process with the empathy & support to make it as painless as possible. Informing us of all the options available but also advising us when they thought it was for our best interest. The same excellent service was provided by the florist, Pastor & venue with whom they recommended & worked with to provide the whole package. Couldn’t have wished for better. 

  • 5 Louise Mason 28th May 2024

    John, Donna and the team at A Slater & Sons have all been wonderful in their support for the family during such a sad time, when Dad passed away unexpectedly.  They have been amazing in helping the family navigate the funeral arrangements, and organising such a beautiful and fitting service to say goodbye. Nothing is too much trouble, from looking after Dad (and us) and managing all the arrangements so beautifully and with such respect and dignity, it really was so comforting during such an awful time.

  • 5 Paula Lamburn 17th May 2024
