Ben Lloyd (Funeral Directors) Ltd is a funeral director based at 51 Station Road, Cheadle Hulme, Cheadle, Cheshire. As a local funeral director serving the Cheadle and surrounding communities, they are dedicated to providing compassionate and professional funeral services to families during their time of need. Unfortunately, the website content was not accessible at the time of review, so further details about their history, specialisms, and full range of services could not be confirmed from the available information.
"They dealt with all our families needs for the funeral with compassion, empathy and patience, taking a lot of the worry and stress away from us. Even when my Dad was collected from the carehome the two men who came were sympathetic and caring. We couldn't have wished for better service."
— Nuts (about Andrea & Chris)
"The care they offer really is second to none! The aftercare is amazing too! They offer a monthly coffee morning for like minded people to get together which is proving very popular and helps so many people like us!"
— Victoria Mitchell (about Simon & Lisa)
"Chris also talked my emotional granddaughter through the process of the funeral. She contacted me regularly to see how I was and give me updates as to what was happening."
— Eileen Clifford (about Chris)
"From the undertakers arriving at 3am and treating us all with empathy and the utmost professionalism, assuring to dress my father in law left home dressed and dignified... I was so proud to watch Chris directing today. She was an absolute credit to the co-operative name and indeed Ben Lloyd."
— Personal Email (about Chris)
"I particularly need to give special mention to Chris the funeral director for her ongoing support. She has made a terrible situation have a silver lining which is no small feat at such a terrible time."
— Marco (about Chris)
"As I do not have family locally, Simon and Lisa were able to assist me in ways that went far beyond what could have been expected, including giving enormous emotional support for, and comfort to, me. They made certain that they got to know as much about my late husband as possible, so that they could even anticipate what might be required. These few words are not adequate to give sufficient praise."
— Sheila Bradford (about Simon & Lisa)
