What people say

★★★★★ The whole team were all very professional, dignified and respectful. Andrea met with us a few times and was always available to speak on the phone or reply to emails whenever needed. She did not attempt to rush us in our decisions and was very understanding and put us at our ease. We had no worries on the day as we knew everything was in place and Farthings could be trusted to carry out their duties in a way that would be fitting to Bernard. The whole day reflected the person he was and it really was a wonderful way to say thank you for his life and his influence on others.
★★★★★ I cannot recommend Farthings more highly. Friends and family were very impressed with the organisation on the day.
Andrea was very helpful and empathetic and helped with useful ideas for my Mother's funeral.
★★★★★ Very professional, empathetic and reliable staff which made whole experience a very meaningful one. Funeral was exactly as we wanted, always guided by our funeral director Andrea Race. Can recommend them more highly.
