5 Michael Smith 16th Aug 2020
Simon and the whole team were all so wonderful and so supportive during such a difficult time for my family. Every aspect of their service was extremely well organised, but done with such kindness and understanding - gently helping me every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble. The funeral went so smoothly. Simon gave me a fantastic recommendation for a celebrant. However, the superb support continues after the actual funeral is over.
I would thoroughly recommend Crescent Funeral ServicesSimon Helliar-Moore replied

5 Roger Cozens 5th Aug 2020
Simon and his team took care of every detail of our dear mothers funeral with compassion and professionalism. The crematorium service, flowers and the printed order of service were lovely .Their charges were fair and transparent. They treated her with the utmost respect and us with care and compassion. In short, they treated us as if our beloved Mum was a member of their very own family. We were delighted with the service they provided and cannot recommend them highly enough

The help and support they gave was outstanding. The flowers were absolutely beautiful which we chose from an excellent catalogue. The Service Sheet was of good thick card and very well laid out and printed with the photos provided very well reproduced. Nothing was too much trouble for their team and always on hand to advise. They took all the stress out of decision making and the arrangements..

5 Anne Richards 20th Jun 2020
From my first conversation with Simon I knew that my mum would be in good hands!
He was so helpful and kind throughout the whole process, as was Robert.
On the day everything was perfect and many of the guests commented on how impressed they were with Simon and Crescent. His choice of Emma as celebrant was a great match.
After the service everyone agreed that Mum would approve!
One member of the family who has sadly attended many funerals felt that ours was the best and
I would not hesitate to recommend Simon and Crescent to anyoneSimon Helliar-Moore replied

5 Joanna Hartholt 17th Jun 2020
This is the second time I have used the services of Robert and Simon and the help and support they have given me whilst coping with the loss of both my parents has been invaluable. They are outstanding funeral directors and moreover outstanding human beings with such respectfulness, empathy and good humour to guide you through an incredibly difficult time. They were in constant contact with me providing much needed reassurance and I know they will remain available for me to chat or ask advice at any point in the future too. I can’t thank them enough for all they have done and continue to do for me and would highly recommend them to anyone.
Robert Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Joanna, Thank you for your extremely kind words and for taking time to share your thoughts. We feel so privileged to have supported you and for helping to tell your Dad's story. Your thoughtfulness and courage in making the arrangements for his special day were just amazing - you created such a personal, special and unique service that we will never forget. We wish you all well for the coming months and hope that in time, you gain comfort from your precious memories of both your parents. Best Wishes x -

5 John McKinley 20th May 2020
Simon Hellier-Moore and his dedicated team could not have been more helpful, supportive, kind and attentive to our family in our recent family funeral. Simon was able to provide introductions to all of the many different services required to fulfil our funeral wishes. The COVID issue was handled with a certainty which enabled me to plan family and friends' attendance with the webcam facility which offered participation by so many who were unable to attend in person. I wholeheartedly recommend the services of Crescent Funeral Services. My thanks to Simon and his team.
Simon Helliar-Moore replied

5 Paul Corner 16th May 2020
Having to choose a funeral director in an area that is unknown to you can lead to a very hit and miss choice. After reading reviews for the local directors, our choice was made simply by looking at previous reviews. I have to say that I am sure that we couldn't have made a better one. From my very first phone call, Simon and Robert couldn't have been more caring and they sorted everything with minimal fuss which was very important during the stressful time of dealing with our mother's death. The day of the funeral was dealt with very respectfully and the team couldn't have been more helpful. I am so glad that we chose Crescent Funeral Services and would highly recommend them. Thank you so much.
Robert Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Paul, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts, it is really helpful to other families, like you who read them to help make an informed decision about who will be the right Funeral Director to care for them and their loved one. Thank you so much for allowing us to care for your dearly loved mum, Wie wish you all happy and life long memories to sustain you. Best Wishes and continued good health to you all -
5 Josh Hosford 7th May 2020
My husband of 32 years recently passed away and I was blown away with the personal, professional and dedicated approach from Crescent funeral services. James in particular was reliable, understanding and most importantly kind. He took each step with me and ensured I was comfortable and supported through everything. I couldn’t have asked for any one or company to have done anymore for me and my family. They recommended and helped me with every detail; flowers, crematorium, wake venue and travel services. Thank you so much, this process could have been really distressing but it was so reassuring to have someone with me every step of the way.
James Chorley replied
Dear Jayne, thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughts. It was our pleasure to help you through such a time and we are thankful we were able to help you.  John was a big part of my life and it was my honour to not only be there for you but give John the send off I personally know he deserved.

5 Steve and Carl Huish-Crook 19th Apr 2020
Amazing trustworthy and professional funeral directors with a wealth of knowledge and nothing is too big for them to achieve. Have very quickly adapted to these new and unprecedented times of global pandemic and this has not caused the funeral of a loved one to suffer. Despite what is going on around the world and the global lockdown they still manage to give you that bespoke service as if you are their only client. They think of things and ideas you may not have thought of or discussed as a family and also during this period of lockdown despite restrictions being in place and maybe the ability to do everything u want to but cannot due to the government changes, they give you perfect alternatives in line with what you wanted to do initially. I cannot thank them enough and not can I praise Simon, Robert and the rest of their team for their family centred approach, where you are not just a number, or a cog in a wheel but each client is treated individually and made to feel like you are their best friend, their family but more importantly, you know that your loved one with them is in safe hands, safe, professional hands. Their commitment to their line of work is palpable and without this personal touch, these things would be made harder for the family to cope with. Thank you so much you were all amazing
Simon Helliar-Moore replied

We thank you so much for taking the time in you saddest of times to consider us. We wish you all amazing and happy memories of Arthur and of his wife Sylvia. Kindest and most humbled regards from us all at Crescent Funeral Services
