For such a sad time the care and compassion from the very first contact was outstanding. Ben was faultless and was comforting in his support on the day and Sophie at Faversham was very caring and understanding and excellent in all the arrangements. Highly recommended for a reassuring funeral when families need the support and help.

Thank you so much for your sensitive care, attention, patience and respectful ways in all respects of my father’s funeral. From distressing start to dignified finish your service was superb. As a family we couldn’t have wished for better.
