The whole team at Pontefract have been exemplary from the point at which I made first contact with them. They made an extremely difficult time for me just that little bit easier to cope with, and I could not possibly thank them enough for the care and attention that they showed towards my late Mum, myself and the rest of the family. I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone needing their support.

Was very helpful and very nice to speak to 

Mick Gill 7th Mar 2022

Nichola and the teams at both Pontefract and Hoyland branches dealt with things is a very professional, courteous and sensitive manner. I was contacted at every stage of the process and took away the worry of ensuring Gill got the send off she deserved. On the day Nichola led the proceeding fantastically well and managed the service from start to finish in a most efficient way. Thanks you.

  • 4 Martin Gilbert 31st Jan 2022

    Overall, we thought the Co-op were very good. Nicola and Ron were very professional and empathetic. The only negative was that when we first went into the Co-op to book mam's funeral date we were spoken to in the open foyer instead of being taken to a back room.

    Me and my family have been very impressed with the service provided by the Co-op in relation to all aspects of my Mum’s funeral. Their professionalism, care and commitment throughout has been exemplary. Nothing has been too much trouble, and with the backdrop of the current pandemic taking its toll on personnel, the Co-op’s ability to maintain a continuity has been commendable.
    Thank You

    From the first meeting with the Co-op Funeral directors to the completion of their services I have been very impressed. They were very professional whilst being sympathetic and very supportive to the family. We have been fully satisfied with the service provided and are grateful that a funeral plan was in place to ease the burden at a very stressful time.

  • 5 Anne Vincent 10th Jan 2022

    Everything handled with efficiency and sensitivity, which is important at such a sensitive time. Nicola was a great support and went over and above to make sure we got the funeral we wanted for my Aunt.
