Could not praise them higher at such a difficult time.

Newrest we’re so good at keeping us informed at every stage which was very helpful to our family at this time. Would like to thank Wendy for her understanding at this time.

Newrest Family Funerals made the funeral of my mum as easy as possible

Newrest Family Funerals made the preparation for my mum's cremation so stress free and smooth. They dealt with absolutely everything in a very professional manner, but also supportive. My mum had the send off she would have wanted, not too much fuss. Newrest has been great for us.

Wonderful company to work with

Wonderful company to work with. It can be really hard to put your complete trust into someone, but with Wendy at Newrest, it's easy. I know she will do her very best for clients and their loved ones. Wendy is caring and kind, very professional and knowledgeable.

Great Company, Fantastic Service

Its always a pleasure to work with Newrest as Funeral Director, and to look after families in the most difficult times. Wendy is absolutley fantastic, and always goes the extra mile to give clients what they ask for. The communication in the lead up to the funeral is great, the on day co-ordination is great. Staff are all well dressed, knowlegable and caring.

Made a difficult task look easy

Took on the difficult task of transferring a close relative from London for burial in Scotland which has much red tape and bureaucracy. They made it all look easy and all was dealt with courteously and professionally with delivery ahead of expectations. They even arranged for viewing in the UK which was not originally scheduled. Can not thank them enough.

Caring and Professional

Wendy at Newrest was so caring and compassionate when my wonderful husband passed away recently and delivered the perfect funeral on my behalf. Wendy sourced an amazing Celebrant to conduct the service. I spoke to many companies before choosing Newrest but it was definitely the right decision. I would have no hesitation in recommending Newrest to support you during such a difficult time in your life.

Thank you

Newrest made everything smooth and easy for us when we lost our daughter recently. They were sympathetic and courteous with us and liaised with other agencies to bring everything we had envisioned to fruition for an absolutely beautiful funeral on the day.
