★★★★★
My Sister and I appointed E C Alderwicks in Hanham to arrange our Mum's funeral in November 2024. Kate was excellent - kind, helpful, sympathetic and professional. It felt as if she had all the time in the world for us, answered all our questions and her attention to detail was above and beyond. We had occasional meetings with Tracey, her colleague, who was equally wonderful. Everyone involved on the day of Mum's funeral, from the limousine driver to the Crematorium staff, were so kind, gracious and courteous.
★★★★★
My sister and I would like to express how professional, empathetic and courteous Philip, Tracey and the team at Hanham in organising our late mother’s funeral. It was complicated due to necessary delays and a split-date service, but the reassurance and kindness shown to the family was very moving and truly exceptional. We thank Alderwick’s for their tender care of our mother who we brought home, whilst immersed in grief during the planning of her farewell. Outstanding.

★★★★★
This is our second time using alderwick and both times they have been so friendly and do all they possibly can to make everything as easy as they can at such a difficult time. Tracey went beyond all means to ensure both mine and my sister's requirements were met and really helped when making those difficult decisions. We would highly reccommend using alderwick funeral services.
