What people say

★★★★★
They gave my son a wonderful send off with a military element. The kindness and caring was absolutely 5 stars more if that was possible. Nothing was too much trouble. The wake that was provided was excellent. I can't rate highly enough. At a very difficult time they made life a lot easier. Highly recommend.
★★★★★
Personal professional very comforting, the team are presented well and just make that time with you special. A lovely service

From the moment I first spoke with Jeff & Lesley Gascoigne, I knew my late husband’s funeral would be handled with the utmost care, dignity, and compassion. Jeff is not only a consummate professional, but also a dear friend, and his kindness and sensitivity throughout such a painful time meant more than words can express. Every detail — from the quiet guidance he offered in making arrangements to the seamless coordination on the day itself — reflected genuine respect and thoughtfulness. Nothing was ever too much trouble; Jeff’s calm reassurance made an incredibly difficult process feel gentl

AJ Gascoignes are amazing at what they do. The whole team work together to deliver an impeccable service to make funeral arrangements work seamlessly. In your hour of need they really are there for you. They are so professional, friendly and truly do care. I can't thank them enough for everything they did for the family, in arranging my late parents funerals, last year and my father last month. Both times we were treated with so much compassion and genuine kindness to get us through such awful times. Thank you to the whole team for everything you do x
