    Excellent service from Chris and his team. We were kept informed every step of the way and any questions we had were swiftly dealt with by Shirley on reception. On the day everything went very smoothly. A special mention for Gill Atkinson who performed the ceremony for us and did so perfectly.

    I could not speak more highly of the Co-op funeral services. From the very first contact when my mum had just died, to the funeral arrangements and aftercare. The people we dealt with showed empathy and understanding and really helped during a difficult time. Highly recommend. Thanks to Chris and Shirley and the lady who came to our home on 31/5/23. A lot of understanding and care shown

    Both Shirley and Chris at the Whitley Bay branch made the harrowing process of arranging Stella’s funeral smooth and straightforward. Their mix of efficiency and empathy make them both superb ambassadors for Co-op Funeral Services.  
    The process, which was new to me, was explained in an easy to understand way and I was kept informed at each stage along the way.  I would highly recommend their services.
