We were grateful for the friendly and comforting service we received and were dealt with professionally and courteously throughout. All the arrangements ran smoothly on the day of the funeral and any questions we had leading up to the day were answered quickly, confidently and with care for us in mind. It was a relief being able to give such a responsibility over to such a professional, well managed team.

    I could not have wished for a more professional, yet warm and empathetic, response regarding my Mam's funeral arrangements. I was guided gently and respectfully through the whole process and I will without question recommend the staff at the Chester Road branch for other undertakings.

  • 4 Terrence Armstrong 23rd May 2022

    When I rang the Co op at the Manchester office to arrange the cremation I was told by the gentleman on the phone that would be able to see Marcia once she at funeral home. When the funeral home rang I asked about this and was told very bluntly no. When I was ask to visit the funeral home to sign the documents and to pay I again asked if this was possible and the lady said she would ask her manager and would let me know the outcome. I am still waiting for the phone call and now it’s to late. Thank you for that, I even offered to pay for the chapel of rest and was I was told no.
