When my father died I was given a pack with details of his pre-paid funeral plan - this was the first time I was aware of it. Thankfully, the instructions within it were clear and concise.
I made a call to the phone number specified and spoke to a very pleasant and understanding lady who told me that the funeral would be handled by Wormalds Funeral Directors. I spoke to Michael there who, again, was very pleasant and understanding, giving me plenty of advice on what I should do next and also arranging to visit my mother's house to make the necessary arrangements. At that meeting Michael had exactly the right amount of empathy, input and humour. He provided information on what the next steps would be and went through what we, the family, wanted to happen - even suggesting options for flowers, the celebrant and the post-funeral food and drinks. These were not pushed on us at all but they did make the process easier for us. Where we weren't sure of what we wanted (such as the number of cars) Michael just left us to consider our requirements and we let him know later on.
Michael made it clear that he was available to provide help and advice where he could on any aspects relating to my father's death and I did call him a couple of times, always receiving valuable information.
On the day of the funeral the cars arrived exactly on time and proceeded in accordance with our wishes to the crematorium. After the funeral we were taken to the small hotel we had booked for food and drinks.
A few days later we received a follow-up phone call to check that we were satisfied with how the funeral had been handled and a bit later we received the bill.
Just a small warning - we found that the prices quoted for such things as the cars did not include VAT, which was included on the final bill.
All in all the whole experience was a positive one - taking a lot of the stress out of an upsetting situation. I can thoroughly recommend Wormalds Funeral Directors and can't thank them enough for the time and effort they put into helping us through a difficlut time.

We first used Wormalds in February due to them being local and then used them again in August because they had been so good. Very accommodating, we chose a coffin but didn’t like the handles which they changed for us at no extra cost. The Celebrant, Lynda Gomersall was also very good and attentive, feedback from those that attended was that they were both lovely Services.
