    I cannot thank and praise the Coop Chester Rd Sunderland enough, Alison, Linda, Graeme and David are very kind caring and professional. The sadness of losing two loved ones within 8 months was eased considerably by the knowledge that the Coop organised everything to go smoothly and just as we had wished.
    Thank you.

    We used Funeral Care, Chester Road for the funeral of our beloved mam. We wanted the very best and that was what we got. It was a professional and dignified service and everything was tailored to what we wanted. There was no "hard sell". We dealt with David and Marie both who were exceptional and understood our grief as well as our wishes for mam. On the day everything ran so smoothly so we were left to mourn our mam while all the organising was done by David and his team. Cannot fault this service.

    I want to thank Alison, David and the whole team for an excellent service. The team kept the family informed at every stage. They made the whole experience far less stressful than was anticipated. I would recommend this team of people to anyone who needs this type of service. You will be able to leave the planning and delivery to these experts and will be grateful on the day.

  • 5 Geoffrey Haydon 24th May 2021

    The Service we received from Alison, Lynda, Marie and colleagues was excellent. Their attitude from the very first was that they wanted to help and provide us with the kind of funeral we wished for. And even though many changes were made after the original plan was set up. They accommodated our requests with friendliness and professionalism. The humanist they recommended was excellent and the service at Sunderland Crematorium was wonderful. Thank you all so much.

    I carnt praise Alison and her team enough. What was a difficult time they made so much easier with the compassion, friendliness. They keep intouch with you and are always helpfull if you have any questions. Will definitely use them again if ever needed.

  • 5 Paul Dean 16th May 2021

    Everything was very well planned and ran smoothly taking away any stress of the day. The suggested Celebrant Dale Cox conducted a perfect service which was not rushed and she emphasised all points we had asked her to highlight.
    Simon was always available to discuss a couple of alterations that inevitably came up. The office staff at Chester Road from walking through the door for the first time to the end were sympathetic and friendly. Special mention for Lynda.
    So thank you one and all for making this very difficult day pass so smoothly and worry free. Paul K Dean.

    I would recommend anyone to use Co-operative Funeralcare. They go above and beyond to ensure that your loved one is cared for, that you and your family are OK and that you get the service that you require. We have them to look after both my Mam and Dad in the last two years and I've been really happy with them.

    The hearse turned up a bit late, having tried to get down the street where there is no street. We were leaving from down the road from the funeral shop! We were then late at the crem, due to road works, tho they could easily have been avoided if the driver knew his way around. I didn't then know whether people around the country and around the world would miss out on the latter part of the service. When we went into the crem, the funeral director did not invite family to join us, so friends, who were supposed to wait, went in first and family almost didn't get in. We went to pick up Sue's ashes and they were not in a scatter box. I asked you to ring to let me know when they were available, but had to ring myself. The music was brilliant. The service over-ran, but there was no-one following us in, tho I got nervous as I didn't know that. The curtains did not close, tho I don't remember having been asked about that.
