"Professional and friendly but more so a very kind person..."

“Unique funerals Walkden arranged my father’s funeral last year. Paul was outstanding. He took the stress and worry away from the family as he assisted with every aspect. Professional and friendly but more so a very kind person. The staff are all on hand to help or answer any questions 24/7. I cannot stress that a such a traumatic time for any family Unique funerals is the best by far.”

The service the family received from the beginning to the end was more than we couldve ever wished or asked for. Paul gave Mum the send off she deserved. After battling with cancer, they made Mum look beautiful and at peace which was lovely for all the family. They even opened up on a Sunday for us to spend time with Mum on her birthday. Everyone said it was the best funeral they had ever been to. The cost was extremely reasonable and the personal touches was perfect. The extra special gestures, releasing balloons (mums favourite colour) and book marks etc that made the day even more special"
