From start to finish the quality of the care we received as family members as well as the care our loved one received was outstanding. Crista provided such a caring, personalised service & went above and beyond to help us during this time. The whole team made the funeral day a beautiful tribute & we couldn’t have asked for a more touching day. Every little detail small or big was handled by Crista perfectly with communication regularly. We would like to thank everyone at S.P Astley

I can’t thank SP Astley Funeral Directors enough for the care and professionalism they showed during my grandad’s funeral. Everything was handled with such dignity, warmth, and attention to detail, it truly brought comfort to our family during a very difficult time. A very special thank you to Yvonne, who was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Her compassion, patience, and genuine kindness made such a difference. She took care of every detail with such thought and respect, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Thank you, Yvonne, and everyone at SP Astley, for giving my grandad the b

Crista is one of the nicest people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. Called S.P. Astley when my grandma was very poorly in hospital and from the first moment I spoke to Crista she made me feel at ease during such a difficult time. The whole process did not feel like we were planning a funeral, it felt like I was talking to a friend. Crista would always check in with me to see how we were doing and the funeral we had for my Grandma was the most amazing way we could give my Gran an amazing send off. Crista you were a god send. Thank you for making such an incredibly sad time an absolute breeze

5 stars is not enough to describe how good their service has been - dealing with the death of my Mum. Claire made the process so easy. Yvonne was fantastic on the day and the pall bearers were so helpful and dignified. At such a difficult time, it is great to know that you can go to such a professional company. Many thanks.

Absolute Outstanding Funeral Directors. Respectful, Caring and Trustworthy. Thank you all so much, especially the lovely lady Kristen who went above and beyond for my mum, making sure she had the send off she deserved.
