Every detail was handled thoughtfully and respectfully, allowing us to focus on honouring our Mother's memory without additional stress. Their guidance was clear and supportive throughout, and they were always available to answer our questions, no matter how small. The service itself was beautifully arranged, and it was clear that they truly understood how important it was to get everything just right. I would wholeheartedly recommend W E Pinder to anyone looking for a funeral service that is sensitive, dignified, and personal.  more

Graeme Stuart Mann 12th Apr 2025

Thank you so much for such an efficient, caring service for our dad. Michael was excellent, took over the organisation and guided us through the whole process with compassion but ... also with some humour. The whole funeral service went very smoothly. Many thanks also to Tom for putting together the photo reels with music. Cannot recommend highly enough.  more

    At such a heartbreaking time of mums passing Pinders stepped up the mark from the very beginning to the laying to rest and beyond. Jacqui was outstanding and so sincere of the care and fine detail of the whole funeral. Such a sad day was made special. Thankyou so much.

    John and his team were amazing in organising Mum's funeral. It was perfect from start to finish. The family was treated with the utmost respect and care, and nothing was too much trouble to organise. Mum was in safe hands and we couldn't have asked for anything more for her. Thank you all so much.

    Excellent personal service. Would recommend without hesitation.

  • 5 Steve Waiton 11th Feb 2025

    Loosing one parent was bad enough but loosing both within  a 16 months period is quite an emotional rollercoaster.
    Once again WE Pinders made the whole funeral process a lot easier to deal with.
    Kind, considerate, supportive and extremely helpful from start to finish.

    Thank you 
    Steve W.

  • 1 Lisa Facer 10th Feb 2025

    Poor communication throughout, what was already deeply upsetting was made worse. I will be taking this further. 

  • 5 Will Bishop 4th Feb 2025

    Absolutely faultless!
    The compassion and professionalism conducted by Tom and the team throughout was a credit to W E Pinder. If you are in the unfortunate position in having to arrange a funeral I would highly recommend these guys. You and your loved one would be in safe hands. There is a reason this is a family business passed down the generations. 
    Thank you again to all at W E Pinder. 

  • 5 Heather Matthews-Gallagher 26th Jan 2025

    I highly recommend Pinders. I have used them twice. Their attention to detail is superb and nothing is too much trouble.they are really caring and go out of their way to help you make the process and arrangements go smoothly.  You are dealing with a close knit family business and other staff can answer queries if your nominated contact is not available. They are professional and caring in equal measures and easy to deal with. 

  • 5 John Bolton 19th Jan 2025

    It is never easy nor nice to have to deal with the myriad of complications surrounding the death of a loved one. However, John and the team couldn’t have been more accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble and John guided my sister and I through each step of the way in a clam and professional manner. I would have no hesitation in recommending W E Pinder to anyone.
