Claire at Ashdowns in Blacken is an absolute diamond. She has helped me with both my parents funerals, with the most recent being last week. The service from Claire from start to finish was amazing, Claire is so friendly and helpful & always on the end of the phone if need her. The funeral director & his staff are all wonderful, helpful & professional. I couldn’t have wished for a more perfect send off for both my parents.

From the moment we walked into Ashdowns to discuss arranging my mum's funeral I knew we were in the right place. Claire was amazing, she listened to us and from the first discussion we were on the same page on what we wanted for my mum. She was so compassionate and had so much empathy and nothing was too much trouble, she was always at the end of the phone when we needed help or advice.
Claire also helped me find a celebrant who was absolutely perfect.
We would highly recommend Claire and the team at Ashdowns Blackfen as they provided a personal service unlike other companies we had spoken to

Would just like to thank and highly recommend everyone at Ashdown Funeral Services at Sidcup. Especially Claire for being so supportive and caring, and for going above and beyond with making my dad’s funeral so special for our family.
Every request my mum had for my dad’s day was met from the horses and carriage, to the bag pipe player, to Claire’s recommendation of celebrant David Matthews, who performed a wonderful service for us. Even all the pallbearers and drivers that day all played their part in giving my dad the send off he deserved.
Being Such a difficult day for our family but just m
