Thank you for the great service, it was a very difficult time but they made it so easy although I didn’t feel like I put much input the day worked out perfect, thanks Albins. 

Paula Trent 28th Feb 2023

I would highly recommend using Albins's services to anyone who has lost a loved one. The empathy and professionalism of all their staff is outstanding and I'm not sure how I would of managed to get through such a difficult time without them. Shirley who is based at the Walworth Road branch had been my rock from the beginning to the end and was always available if I needed her no matter how small. Thank you so much Albins my family and I appreciate you. Paula

  • 5 Michelle Dillon 15th Feb 2022

    I went to F.A Albin, Walworth to initially make some enquiries as my father had died. I was all over the place.

    Shirley was brilliant!! Accommodating and informative every step of the way. My family were so impressed and Danny was just as amazing on the day. We all know that it's a difficult time, losing a loved one. The compassion for my family from Shirley and team made such a terrible time, slightly more bearable.
