5 Andy Mellett 21st Jan 2023
Thank you, truly amazing, they nurtured us through the whole thing. Nothing was too much trouble, they made regular contact with us, not just to ask if we wanted different things but also to check on us and explain things to us.
It was such a relief to feel that my mother in Law was somewhere respectful, caring and totally professional from start to finish .
A massive thank you to James who looked after us all the way through and also to Emma the Celebrant we used. Thank you again from us all.James Chorley replied

5 Martyn Hembrow 6th Jan 2023
Unexpectedly and very suddenly my Aunt passed away just before Christmas, which is never a good time for a funeral, if in fact any time may be considered as good. In addition she was leaving her surviving husband who is dependant on dialysis treatment three times a week which would make the cremation arrangements slightly difficult and to make matters worse the crematorium was being rewired and was not operating on Mondays and Tuesdays. So, somewhat apprehensive, concerned and unsure of things I contacted Crescent Funeral Services and spoke with Robert who immediately erased all of my concerns, worries and uncertainties. His care and consideration to not only myself but also my uncle was outstanding. This continued throughout our phone calls, visits, viewing my aunt at rest, the day of the cremation (three days prior to Christmas) and afterwards as well. Attention to detail was first class with the flowers being what my uncle envisaged and with the production of the order of service. Thanks to Robert and the Team I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending their services, and, by the way, my Uncle has made it quite clear who he wants to take care of his funeral!
Robert Helliar-Moore replied

5 Anne Guerin 24th Dec 2022
This is the third time that Simon has done a funeral for my family and he really is excellent . I would not even think of having anyone else . His care and consideration for myself and family was second to none and he knew when to show the lighter side and when to be serious . We were very lucky to have him and I would always suggest Crescent to anyone in the same situation, I have found myself in recently .
Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Anne and family, it was a great honour to walk alongside you once again, I am ever grateful for your trust and kindness toward me and my company. John was a good man and will be remembered by many. We all wish you a lifetime of happy memories to sustain you. -

5 Grace Davies 10th Dec 2022
Crescent Funeral Services arranged my Dads funeral. They were able to take him home to Wales and arranged the cremation over there too.
Simon and his team were absolutely amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for them and their attention to detail is first class. The flowers they arranged were exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend Crescent Funeral Services.Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dearest Grace, thank you to you and Gaynor for allowing us to care for your father and for the privilege of taking him home to Wales. We wish you and the family a lifetime of wonderful memories to sustain you in the coming years -
5 Sara Studley 28th Nov 2022
From the start of the arrangement to the funeral day itself, crescent funeral could not have been more compassionate. Nothing was too much trouble and with Mu Mum being in a care home they did everything with dignity to make sure she said her goodbyes in the chapel of rest. I can not recommend them highly enough. As a rule I don't write review but when you are going through bereavement you need a company you can trust to help you through the pain of loosing a lost one

5 Paul Upham 19th Nov 2022
Simon and his team were outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble. They went above and beyond to find a celebrant.
Everything was done for us via Crescent funeral. When we wanted the order of service changed they cheerfully and quickly dealt with it.
Simon is exceptionally professional and the sense of duty and respect has been passed onto James, who was also a delight.
Simon has dealt with the funeral of both my Mother and Father and I would not hesitate to recommend the high service received.
Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Paul and Liz, Thank you to you and your family for taking the time to share your thoughts on our services. We are very touched that you found us to be the right people to care for your beloved parents. We wish you all a lifetime of wonderful memories. -

The team at Crescent were absolutely amazing and I can’t recommend them highly enough. From my initial meeting with Simon, I knew I was in safe hands, Simon and his team showed empathy, respect, patience and understanding, which really helped me to make all of the right decisions for the funeral, which was so important for me to get right. My thanks to all at Crescent Funeral Services.
