Mark and the team at Jackson funerals were absolutely amazing from the very start . After losing my dad to an incredibly short illness we approached jacksons with no idea of what we were doing or what to expect. We were immediately looked after In a very compassionate and understanding manner. The team at jacksons are a fantastic and helped not only with the funeral arrangements but lifting our moods and offered shoulder to lean on during the darkest time of our lives . I absolutely recommend these guys and wish them all the very best in the future .

Sarah Merriman 2nd Dec 2020

From start to finish this wonderful family funeral directors made the whole bereavement process incredibly stressfree. Mark and his team were hugely professional, empathetic, warm and welcoming. They guided us through the whole process efficiently, taking time to explain everything without rushing us and nothing was too much trouble. All costs were explained. Choosing the coffin was easy, the order of service was printed on our behalf and we had the support of Jenny the funeral celebrant to assist us with the order of service on the day. Jenny’s welcome and delivery at the Vale crematorium was incredible and she took all the pressure away from the family who could just sit and listen to the service. Would thoroughly recommend their professionalism, Efficiency, kindness. I do not have one single negative. Thank you Mark and your team for everything you did for our mother.

Dear Sarah (and team) I just wanted to convey our thanks and appreciation for your incredible service in regard to the recent direct cremation of our loved one. You have been so amazing, truly. We were honestly a little apprehensive at first, but your knowledge and assurance were all we needed and you followed this through 100% with your impeccable customer care. You’ve been an absolute pleasure to deal with from beginning to end and I cannot thank you enough. I’d wholeheartedly recommend you without hesitation.

  • 5 Clive Parks 21st Nov 2020

    I am most impressed with the professional and considerate service provided . This was a direct cremation with a long distance collection. Everything carried out calmly and Jacksons took a great deal of care to keep me informed and reassured.
    A first class service in difficult times.

  • 5 Jacki Bishop 2nd Nov 2020

    The support I received from the moment I made the first phone call making enquiries was exceptional. When I phoned to say my mother had died, arrangements were made quickly and sensitively to come and collect her body and the whole process was carried out with care and respect. I was kept informed of cremation details and given a time so that my husband, daughter, her partner and myself could be together to say our farewell. It also meant I could tell those to whom she was dear so they could do likewise. I could not fault the team and feel so grateful that they were there for us to help ensure a dignified and loving goodbye to Mum.

  • 5 Ann Margaret Hynek 25th Oct 2020

    We are extremely grateful to Jackson's Family Funerals who helped us at such a difficult time. Mark and Jenny provided an extremely friendly and professional service and took the time to talk to us and understand the spirit of the person we have lost. They helped turn what would have been a very sad experience into an uplifting and heartfelt celebration of that person's life.

  • 5 Rita Thorn 19th Oct 2020

    Every care and attention was given to our grieving family. All requirements were met with a swift response. We felt guided and supported throughout our ordeal. The service at the crematorium was handled with great sensitivity and compassion by our celebrant. I would highly recommend to anyone. They would be in good hands.

  • 5 Kevin Forrester 21st Sep 2020

    Very supportive, great people and very professional 

  • 5 Chris Lear 14th Sep 2020

    Total professionalism from the beginning to end. We would recommend Jackson Family Funeral Business every detail of Mums funeral was perfectly conducted we couldn’t fault them. 

  • 5 Tim Nixon 8th Sep 2020

    Everything was handled beautifully and professionally. 
    Thank you 

  • 5 Guy Freshwater 8th Sep 2020

    Mark, Sarah and Jenny were so helpful and kind during the whole process of planning the funeral. We really wouldn't have been able to plan such a lovely service without them. Thank you so much

  • 5 Penny Simons 7th Sep 2020

    Sarah was a shoulder to lean on during this difficult time. She talked me through everything that needed to be done and was always supportive and considerate, changing arrangements when we wanted to and always available when we needed her. I highly recommend this service

  • 5 Harry Taynton 2nd Sep 2020

    Amazing work from start to finish. Couldn’t put into words how good they were in organising everything. The service was perfect.

  • 5 Joanne Mansfield 23rd Aug 2020

    I’ve had to call on this company three times this year, they have been marvellous on every occasion. Sarah has been available to talk and reassurance me every step of the way.
    I happily recommend these great people without hesitation, they really do deserve a shout out for making a difficult time as worry free  as possible.  Joanne Mansfield 

  • 5 Malcolm Fleming 17th Aug 2020

    Friendly, warm, attentive, thoughtful, flexible and professional. They were a pleasure to deal with at a very difficult time and very good value. I would definitely recommend them.

  • 5 Siobhan Grinter 3rd Aug 2020

    Amazing people

  • 5 Cathryn Clayton 30th Jul 2020

    My father-in-law has a pre-paid funeral plan which the family knew about but didn’t know what we had to do. From the first phone call to Sarah, she made the whole process very easy. Sarah kept in touch throughout the whole process. Thank you Sarah. 

  • 5 David Schroder 25th Jul 2020

    Total professionism in every respect, highly recommended.

  • 5 Lisa Baker 24th Jun 2020

    Caring, kind, compassionate would sum up the service we received.

    Sarah at Jackson's stood out at hello, and the whole team made a challenging time so much easier. I observed the teams kindness and the dignity with which they treated Anita. She would have liked them.

    I'd add there were no hidden fees, no attempt to upsell, no salesmen (not should there be), just a calm confidence that my sister would be taken care of, and she truly was. No funeral is a choice, we'd all love s bit longer with our loved ones, but I am at least confident I chose the right people to take care of it.

    Thank you x

  • 5 Janet Bailey 16th Jun 2020

  • 5 Audrey Stephens-Taylor 15th Jun 2020

    Sarah, the lady I spoke to on three occasions explained everything clearly in a sympathetic way. The company acted very quickly in collecting my dear mum from her care home. Now I just await the ashes, but I am unconcerned as everything else was deal with so smoothly.

  • 2 Nigel Evans 6th May 2020

    When i first phoned up they said they would keep me updated every step of the way, They didnt i found i had to chase them to get any details maybe because Mom opted for a no fuss funeral we didnt spend unough with them, they didnt even deliver her ashes on the day they said they would so had to chase them up again,I just felt i was forgotten about

  • 4 Steven Warke 4th May 2020

    I have used this service for my dad and more recently my mum.

    We wanted a simple direct cremation preferring to splash out on a family celebration of their lives.

    I couldn’t recommend this service more highly.

    Respectful , considerate and efficient
