Sally was very caring, sympathetic to both my brother and myself. She was very patient with us and went through all we needed to know and answered all questions no matter how stupid they sounded.  The suite where our mum rested was to a very high standard and we were allowed as much time as we needed. The undertaker rang prior to the funeral to explain how the day would progress and on the day was very professional and kind. I highly recommend the co-op for the love and care they showed us at such a sad time.

I was very pleased with my overall dealings with this company.  However, I was not happy that nobody contacted me to say when  my father would be available for a visit. By the time I got in touch, there was only one day, and a short period available

Many thanks to all at Rayleigh Funeralcare for their professional and compassionate handling of my mothers funeral.

  • 5 Lesley Kibble 1st Nov 2023

    I cannot recommend Cooperative Funeral Care enough, from the moment my mother passed away to well after the funeral, they were there to offer advice, guidance and support through the whole process. They made a traumatic time so much less stressful, which we are very grateful for.

    Sally planned a fantastic service which was a lovely and fitting tribute to my mother, everything organised impeccably. Thank you to all the rest of the team involved, we appreciate all your hard work and are very grateful to you all.

    Thanks again from Elsie Todd's family

  • 5 Juliet Murray 3rd Oct 2023

  • 5 Paul Dewberry 19th Sep 2023

    We organised our Plan 13 years ago, extremely glad we chose the Coop.
    The day was well organised and the team couldn't have done more for us.
    Thanks go to SALLY and the team who attended to our wishes.
    I'm sure my future...... demise will be equally attended to, albeit, less complicated.
    We had to wait almost 8 weeks for the local cemetery to have a space for the internment at Hall Road, despite paying for the plot at time of arrangement (13 years ago!) Ludicrous

  • 5 Kelly Sams 15th Aug 2023

    The whole service we received from start to finish with the Co-op was excellent. Communication was great and the whole process was smooth

  • 4 Angie Coxon 10th Aug 2023

    Very helpful, friendly and informative from the start of the process. However, didn’t need to be contacted on every single stage of the arrangements when it didn’t affect the outcome. 
    The staff on the day were very good, Steve, in particular was excellent and made the whole experience very personal, not just ‘it was his job’ attitude. Very decent caring group of people the company should be very proud of. 

  • 5 Jackie Bell 24th Jul 2023

    We were all very pleased!! Wonderful, thank you.

  • 5 Diane Parmenter 3rd Jul 2023

    My family and I were very pleased with the empathy and caring service we received from all the team at Funeralcare from our first visit in the office until the funeral day. Thank you to everyone involved.

  • 5 Joanna Duggan 19th Jun 2023

    My family and I were very happy with the service.
    From the moment you collected my Dad with so much care and compassion, to all the detailed communication from Sally in the branch, to the wonderful Rev, Jon Stannard, they put us in touch with, to then Steve and the team that drove us to the Crematorium on the day. It was faultless and we felt very cared for. We’re very grateful and would highly recommend you.
