Rated 4.8 / 5 based on 57 reviews.

Rated 5 / 5

When my Mother In-law passed we used W.Wraight & Sons for her funeral and we were so impressed with everything. So when my Dad passed we didn’t look anywhere else.

The staff are very compassionate and made a very emotional time stress less to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble for them to arrange. From the order of service, flowers, lovely Erika the celebrant, even scanning of photos for the photo tribute they were excellent.

Thank you so much to Jamie and all of the staff who made it a wonderful send off for them both.

We lost both my Father and then my Mother in the span of a few months, however we were fortunate enough that they had both chosen Wraight and Son in Emsworth as the team to support us through the process. The overall service and support was seamless. They took care of all the issues of dealing with insurance companies, church and crematorium, they prepared wonderful notices for us to send out, as well as an excellent order of service. The whole experience from first contact through the service and obtaining the ashes was handled in a professional and dignified manner. Thank you to the team at Emsworth!
