Anne Day 24th Jun 2024

After walking into the Rainworth branch not knowing what to say, how to start with organising a funeral as this was my 'first' time dealing with anything like this Becky met me at the door took everything in hand and guided me through everything. Absolute star, Becky needs bottling, I couldn't have asked for a better person to help. The eve before the funeral another member of staff rang me, 'Jonathan' just to guide me through the morning of the funeral and to ask of any minute alterations. Jonathan was so kind when we met and gave my late mum the respect she deserved. I have given 5 stars because it's thoroughly worth it. Albeit a small funeral I felt we were given the best service.

Alison Wellings 23rd Jun 2024

The team at Rainworth looked after every detail from the moment we rang, throughout the planning and during the funeral in a very caring and sensitive manner. I would thoroughly recommend the Rainworth team.
