Teresa was great and made a difficult meeting with my mother easier to deal with. It is a strange situation to plan a funeral whilst the person is still alive! I can see the benefit, but that does not... See more

It was just a really positive experience. I've dealt with Preston Ireland Bowker before so I know how professional they are. Alex was super to deal with and I came away knowing that I had things sorted for the future and it was a weight off my mind. Thank you.

I purchased a funeral plan several years ago with Age Concern taken over by Dignity. Due to a recent death in the family and the problems faced I decided that a direct cremation with ashes returned to my daughter was kinder when she faced my passing. I was surprised I had to cancel my current plan and pay a cancellation fee. To have the plan I wanted, I had to start a new plan with a different department. Surely an amendment to my plan would have been more appropriate, a conversation with one person, no two, with an admin charge if necessary, and any refund to follow. No problem with the staff, just in my opinion the system is wrong.

A great service

We found Hinckley very helpful and very clear as to what we both wanted for our Funerals. The follow up from Dignity was first class with all the information. It could not have been better very pleased with the service so far and would highly recommend.

Arranging a Funeral Plan

I spoke to Heidi at the Teddington branch and she was really helpful and informative. Despite talking about a funeral plan she made the experience quite positive.
