Karen was very kind, considerate, personalised the service for us, kept us well-informed and communicated with us throughout the entire process up to the day of the funeral. Anita and Alex were both very friendly, professional and kind to all of us.

Karen was wonderful - caring, sympathetic, kind and funny.  We felt in exceptionally good hands The only issue was with Coop Financial Services who were the first to call, offering condolences then immediately trying to upsell legal services. That was just crass in the extreme, I’m still fizzing about it. You really need to stop them doing that.

  • 5 Richard Young 2nd Oct 2023

    From the very first meeting with Karen we were treated in a most compassionate caring manner all our questions were answered in a very professional way , all the arrangements were checked and double checked . Karen the minister was also caring and had all our wishes converted into a caring service for all , mum was at the chapel of rest to allow family members to say their final goodbyes .
    The day before the cremation every body made contact to ensure we were ok and all any final questions were answered including terry who could not get hold of us in the working hours but made sure he spoke to us late that evening . everybody was compassionate faultless and caring could not recommend you highly enough
    thank you from Richard and all the family

  • 5 Richard Lindsay 24th Jul 2023

    Everyone was so helpful and caring. We were allowed as much time as needed to understand what was needed and how the funeral would proceed. There were no problems at any stage. Karen and Anita at the co-op were absolutely wonderful. Karen Acres the celebrant was outstanding, her reading of the letters was beautiful and very moving. Thank you to everyone involved. Richard and Barbara

    Karen was so helpful in this complex cremation, helping to iron out all the issues that arose.

  • 5 David Knight 14th Jul 2023

    A big thankyou to Karen Matthews at Ashtead Funeralcare. We cannot sing her praises high enough. Karen is very professional and caring, and takes time to offer comfort and advice as well as ensuring that all the funeral arrangements are of the highest standard. Rhian and her team ensured everything went like clockwork on the day of the funeral, keeping the stress of the occasion to a minimum. So a big thankyou to Rhian and her team as well.

  • 5 Amanda-Jane Hewitt 30th Jun 2023

    Karen, who helped to arrange my mum's funeral was so amazing from start to finish. She helped me with every aspect of arrangements and provided valuable support during my time of grieving. Her kindness and sincerity was genuine and I knew I was in good hands. She treated my mum with the up most respect when she was in her care at the chapel of rest and nothing was ever too much trouble when I needed help. I am forever grateful to Karen for helping me navigate through this terrible time and her heartfelt advice about how to cope with the grieving process. Thank you.

  • 5 Helen Tate 19th Jun 2023

    I can't thank Karen and Freddie enough. They made the whole process so much more bearable. Always able to contact them with queries and questions.
    Nothing was too much trouble.
    The funeral went so smoothly and it was just perfect for Mum.
    The aftercare has also been exceptional.
    Thankyou so much. Helen

  • 5 John Howard 8th Mar 2023

    From start to finish the service that we received could not have been more caring or friendly. Karen was absolutely brilliant in helping us through our saddest of times and we shall be forever grateful to her.

    There services was excellent but I don’t want to cause trouble but they said the florist the provide they don’t recommend 

  • 3 Elizabeth Burton 18th Jan 2023

    Drivers and crem team were great on the day of the funeral and deserve top marks.
    Office staff need to be less rushed and to be a bit more thoughtful. I felt like I was one in a long line of tasks that had to be quickly ticked off. That's not how anyone needs to feel when arranging a funeral. I also didn't need to be told.....the moment I sat down for the first meeting....about the problems getting hold of the certifying GP. That's your job, not a problem you should share with me. And then insisting the green form had not been sent, then not apologising when you found it had, was unprofessional. It also meant my husband spent time on the phone chasing it when he should have been by my side making the arrangements. And if no one ever thinks to provide underwear to dress their loved one, why haven't you thought to mention it when you ask for clothes to be brought in? You are the people who do this all the time.
    Please just slow down. I lost count of the number of times you said goodbye and put the phone down when i was still speaking.

  • 5 Nikee Cristie 9th Jan 2023

    Karen in the office, and Freddie the funeral director, were just great - really helpful, nothing too much trouble. Thanks for helping and guiding us through this sad event.

  • 5 Jackie Wright 12th Dec 2022

    From the initial contact nothing was too much trouble. They kept in close contact offering help and advice without being overbearing.
    I would thoroughly recommend them .

  • 5 Lisa Weller 12th Dec 2022

    A very very warm thank you to Karen and the team at Ashstead Funeralcare for making the process of cremating our loved one so simple and straightforward. 
    Karen was so compassionate and empathetic right from the very first meeting and as a family, we felt that she was there holding our hands, every step of the way. 
    Would highly recommend the services of Ashstead Funeralcare and would not hesitate to use them again if ever needed in the future. 
    Thank you so much to the whole team x

  • 5 Chantael Clayton 8th Nov 2022

    Karen and Freddie at Ashtead were very kind and caring and made everything so easy and stress free at a very emotional and difficult time.  

  • 5 Ann Cattermole 7th Nov 2022

    My beloved husband and I had made the decision to each have a direct funeral with no frills. From the moment we both visited Co op Ashtead Funeralcare a couple of months ago we were warmly welcomed by Karen who guided us through the procedure involved in this type of funeral. We decided there and then that this was for us! A few weeks later my husband died and my family and I visited Karen who was most professional and sympathetic.
    I would recommend the Co op Ashtead Funeralcare service to anyone looking for a dignified and caring funeral for their loved one.

  • 5 Chantal Addley 13th Oct 2022
