I can't fault Michelle at Dawe Brothers. She took great care of me when organising my husband Charlies funeral. I had help with everything from ideas for which celebrant to use, flowers and coffin choice and even where I could hold a small wake afterwards. She showed great care and attention all along the way and regular check-ins without being over-bearing, which is exactly what was needed during this difficult time. The team on the day did everything perfectly and made sure it all ran smoothly and we were well looked after.

What can I say? As always, a very professional, kind, caring and efficient service from Dawe Brothers who always seem to know what you need before you do yourself. No request is too small or too large and the recent funeral arranged by them was no small task. Despite the day being traumatic, the results of Dawe Brothers' efforts left me with a feeling of pride and peace that my husband had the perfect send-off. Special thanks to Julie and Laura who were truly wonderful in very difficult circumstances. I was very impressed with the attention to detail. When a request is made, however small, you just know it will be dealt with in a very caring and efficient manner. I cannot recommend Dawe Brothers highly enough - outstanding! Jo x

I would like to thank everyone at Dawe Brothers for the outstanding service we received for my Father's funeral. Daniel was very helpful and patient on our initial call. Becci was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating, arranging everything for us. All our requests were carried out to the letter and we couldn't have asked for a smoother experience at a very difficult and confusing time. Every detail was perfect. Order of service, flowers, scatter tube and the gentlemen paging and driving the hearse on the day were professional and kind. The funeral service was exactly how we had planned it. I cannot recommend Dawe Brothers highly enough and we're are so thankful we chose them for such an important day.

Used dawe brothers for a very long time. But they have changed alot since joining funeral partners. I would consider what there market is about. They not interested how you feel or have any sympathy although they good actors in showing you that they care. It's all about the costs and they just out for themselves to make money out of familiesVery disgusting and upsetting to treat families like this but thats funeral partners for you!!

Due to the distance most had to be arranged/chosen via email & pictures. They made it as easy as possible, and were very very patient and gentle when I had to decisions to make. Prices were explained & suggestions were made without pressure as to what I could choose. The booklet they had printed with the order of service was a delight, & many mentioned how lovely it was. This included a very friendly Mark Townsend who was able to speak of my Father, so well & included a story that many mentioned at the following tea. Dawe Bros were even able to arrange flowers as well as a very wonderful tea within walking distance of the funeral service. I could not have had a better funeral from my Dad, I would certainly recommend them for every part of the funeral, right down to sending me some extra photo’s I might have not taken myself . What terrific service
