★★★★★ What a duo Peter and Emma make. Such compassionate and professional service. I was lost and Peter not only supported but helped from start to finish. Emma what a lovely person you are and my family thank you x ❤️
★★★★★ Absolutely amazing customer service from Peter and his team at Lesley Shand Blandford. From the initial phone call to the completion of the funeral total professionalism. Nothing too much trouble. Would recommend 100%. In my mum's own words so glad we chose them. Peter and team amazing.
★★★★★ I could not recommend Lesley Shand enough. Kathryn is an absolute dream and possibly the loveliest person I have ever met in my life. She went above and beyond any and all expectation at any time of day or night and exceeded all of our expectations in every way. We could not be more grateful that in such a difficult time she was such a light and offered endless support. I cannot imagine how much she pours into her work she deserves a million holidays (when the pandemic is over!) Thank you Kathryn, there aren't words to describe what an amazing support and friend you were through this difficult
★★★★★ Very sadly my step son died at the tender age of 43. this was a considerable shock to my wife and the whole of his family and friends.
Kathryn and all the staff at Lesley Shand were brilliant, professional and compassionate. It was an incredible service run by Rob Hazell, managing to put all of the mourners at ease, whilst giving us thanks for the life of Anthony.
I have no doubt that they tailor each funeral to each set of circumstances and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone unfortunate enough to need their services.
★★★★★ Dealt with the Offices in Blandford in March '23. The gent there, Peter, was both compassionate and extremely professional in dealing with my late mother.
I cannot thank him enough for his empathy at what was a traumatic time for myself...
