  • 5 Stephen Cook 25th Mar 2024

    I will admit that we chose Coop funeral care at random when our beloved Uncle passed away. However, we are so glad that we did. The service, care and compassion that we have received has exceeded our expectations. We hope that we will not need these services again for a long time, but would have no hesitation if the need arises.

  • 5 Trevor Mcdonnell 8th Jan 2024

    Co-op funeral are at Whitkirk Leeds carried out my brother’s funeral last week.  He had set up a funeral plan so the first steps had been laid.
    However the team at Whitkirk, Emma, Claire and Tracy were wonderful. They were in touch with my wife and I throughout, offering genuine care and support.  No query was beyond their remit. 
    All our requests were fulfilled and on the funeral day itself everything worked perfectly. The celebrant was very good and set the right tone for the celebration of Stewart’s life.  His touch was a light one and made the service very inclusive.
    Overall , whilst it may be a strange words to use, our feelings were of complete satisfaction.
    My wife and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

    All the staff are lovely at Co-op Whitkirk.  

    Their friendly manner really makes a sad time much easier.  They are always on hand to answer your questions and go above and beyond to make you feel welcome to ring or visit them at all times.

    They looked after my nanna really well, and showed respect to her at all times

    The day of the funeral went smoothly as a result of their planning and again they were really friendly and helped everyone who attended.
