I lost my partner after 12 and a half years together. I contacted Alcocks not knowing what to do. Julie was outstanding. She led us through everything from start to finish. She could tell I was falling at times but her professionalism stood out. Also a special mention to our celebrant Katie Dudley who throughout a wonderful service kept making sure I was ok. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart xx

We can’t thank George enough for his kindness and professionalism during my mum’s funeral. From the very beginning, George was incredibly supportive, taking care of every detail with compassion and respect. His guidance helped ease the burden during such an emotional time, and everything was handled beautifully. He allowed us to visit the chapel of rest numerous times, nothing was too big of an ask. We highly recommend using W N Allcock Funeral Services, they went above and beyond to make sure my mum’s service was everything we could have hoped for.

This is an exceptionally caring and sensitive service. Everything regarding the funeral was clearly explained and our whole family felt valued and cared for. From the moment we contacted Allcock's funeral services we felt that we were in good hands. Our funeral director, George Mortimer, visited us at home to outline the whole process. He made it clear that we could contact him at any time regarding anything that we were unsure of. The costs were clearly explained and outlined. He kept us fully informed at all times and was extremely sensitive. We were able to visit a well appointed chapel of rest and though this was a very emotional experience the care shown by the funeral staff helped us to cope with this experience. My wife's ashes were collected and returned to me in a most professional and caring manner. I cannot commend W.N.Allcock's funeral services too highly
