I felt well looked after from the moment I walked in the door. Kevin looked after every detail, and he and his team made sure everything went really smoothly. I was particularly moved by the attention to detail, including the formal wear of those in the cortège, the respect paid to the coffin, and the calm and kindness shown by every member of the team. I cannot thank the team enough, and gladly recommend them to anyone who needs such a service

    The Co-op Funeralcare High Heaton, Is the branch our family used for both my Mother and now my Father. On both occasions the team were friendly, caring, respectful and professional. They gave us support and advice and help to arrange all the need's and wishes of my Father, and our family wishes for his funeral, they went above and beyond for us to achieve the best for our Dad. We have dealt with the same team before so we knew we were in good hands. I would recommend The Co-op Funeralcare to anyone else having to arrange a funeral, they are very efficient and organized so that the day ran smoothly. The before and after care has been greatly appreciated. Thank you to the Co-op Funeralcare

  • 5 James Michael McBride 22nd Mar 2022

    I initially contacted the Co-op Funeralcare High Heaton branch, but all my dealings thereafter were with Kevin, funeral director at their Benwell branch. My deceased brother was taken to the Benwell chapel of rest from a hospital mortuary. An excellent all-round funeral service managed by a top-notch funeral director. Very caring, thoughtful and respectful. Reasonable fees. First class and full marks.
