Great customer service from Helen
Great customer service from Helen. Unfortunately the parcel containing the water urn I ordered was damaged in transit. Courier issue, not the fault of Scattering Ashes.
Helen answered my email very quickly, apologising and with plans to replace the urn.
I have already received the replacement and am very grateful for the understanding and great service. Thank you

I would like to thank all of the team at Scattering Ashes, especially Helen, for her professionalism and empathy when ordering the Duluxe Journey Water Urn Set. The set arrived promptly, and it was clear that great care had been taken in packing the contents, which all served a touching purpose for loved ones on the day. The journey urn carried my life partner and love of my life, with quiet elegance, allowing for a farewell that was both beautiful and dignified. I would highly recommend Scattering Ashes, and thank the team again for their kindness.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re truly honoured that the piece was a beautiful tribute to your father. It means a great deal to us that we could help in some small way.
Scattering Ashes were a funeral director's suggestion.
Scattering Ashes were a funeral director's suggestion, who had taken care of both mother and father's funerals, as we wanted to give them a send off from the sea off Brighton.
Choosing the cushion/urn was a simple process, although I found the description of urn slightly confusing as I imagined something like a vase shape.
I was advise of a delivery date period and it arrived on time. I'd requested an inscription which was faithfully reproduced.

Memorial glass Robin
Absolutely stunning glass Robin with my mum's ashes incorporated into the Robin. Wonderful service from start to finish, very professional, caring and understanding. When received, the presentation box it arrived in with an authentication certificate made it that much more special, it's the little touches like that that make it extra special and why I absolutely recommend this small family business if you want a more personal service.
