We had opted for a direct cremation and I found Jodie who went through the whole process in a very kind and thoughtful way.  I asked just to be told when the cremation had taken place and this again was conveyed in a very thoughtful and respectful way.  The whole process can be a very emotional experience but I cannot praise the staff more highly and thank them for their kindness during a very sad time for me.

My only reservation in not giving a 5 star review was that I had to ring on more than one occasion to check that my mothers rings had been stored in the safe and also to check that her ashes had been returned even though I was promised that they would contact me as soon as they were delivered to the office site.

Kind and understanding, Jodie guided me through all aspects of my late husband's cremation. A pleasure to deal with.

    The service we received from Co-op Funeralcare was first class, from the time I first attended to make arrangements for my father's funeral to the day of the funeral itself. The members of staff were always in communication with me regarding what was happening and were very sympathetic. I cannot thank all the staff enough for all they have done for all their hard work in ensuring my father's funeral went ahead as we had planned it. So a big thank you to all.

    Mum’s funeral was a beautifully moving event, the Co-op did a splendid job. The Coroner also did a prompt and respectful job in collecting Mum and confirming cause of death next day. 
    However.  
    The medical profession was very slow in signing various documents along the way delaying access to the death certificate and the embalming proceedure causing us a lot of distress in wondering if Mum would be fit to view after being officially laid to rest. Mum had passed away 4 weeks before we could come to view her. 

  • 1 Colin Potts 5th Dec 2023

    I have raised a complaint regarding the errors made by the funeral directors.

  • 5 Karen Sherwood 5th Dec 2023

    Very helpful and caring ladies. They gave good advice and help planning a funeral.

  • 5 Christine Wilson 1st Dec 2023

    I have used Co-op Funeral Care before which is the reason I used them when my husband died. They seem to go just that bit extra which makes such a big difference at such an awful time. Plus the Crem they use is a lovely place in the New Forest.
