Just making you aware, this funeral director is NOT a family run business, its impersonable, they charge you to see/sit with your loved one (a relative was asked to pay £50 to pay their respects) you’ll have to deal with their call centre in Birmingham and you will need to check through your invoices carefully! (From our experience) All the things that should never have to happen during a time where you should be grieving for the loss of a loved one and not stressed out with a company that is clearly no longer got its clients at heart

From the beginning to the end this was such a professional service. We met with staff at the beginning and went through what we wanted. The bill was itemised so we could see exactly what we were paying for and could budget accordingly. Particular mention for Angela who was so lovely to my step dad … he visited my mum every day and was so kind and supportive to him
Also Andrew who arranged the cars and service was amazing…. It’s so refreshing to see people who are good at their jobs and carry out their tasks so professionally An excellent service

J C Clarke - Anne Julie Bettis- deceased
We were recommended to J C Clarke as they were local to my sister's residence in Frodsham.
Late on the evening of my sister's passing, we rang the funeral directors, who were empathetic to our situation and spoke very calmly to us, obtaining the details they required.
The undertakers arrived at 10pm to take Anne into their care, and this was done in a respectful manner.
The following day we returned to Frodsham to their office to finalise the details of Anne's funeral. The process was clearly explained to us with options available to meet our requirements.
Debbie who dealt with our wishes from our first meeting and always answered any questions or advice about which we were uncertain. Debbie structured the funeral with us and recommended a Celebrant to conduct the service.
The funeral logistics was conducted in a very professional and caring manner, again with options for the close family to be involved.
We would highly recommend the services of J C Clarke Funeral Directors in Frodsham.
