We recently arranged a direct cremation with Tony Clarke Funeral Directors and had a very positive experience. The whole process was handled with care and professionalism, and it really took the pressure off the family during a difficult time. What stood out was the clarity and honesty around pricing — unlike other funeral directors who list a lower fee but then add the cremation cost on top, Tony Clarke's price was fully inclusive from the start. No surprises, no hidden extras — just respectful, straightforward support based entirely on the family's wishes. Highly recommended.

Tony Clarke Funeral Directors provided a truly compassionate and professional service during a very difficult time for our family. The care and respect shown throughout the arrangements for Joan's funeral were exceptional. From the initial enquiries to the service at Sunderland Crematorium and the burial, everything was handled with great attention to detail. The team made sure we had everything we needed, including a livestream for those who couldn’t attend, and supported us every step of the way. We are especially grateful for the dignity and kindness shown to our family, and for helping us celebrate Joan’s life just the way she would have wanted. Thank you to everything Tony and Marek — your warmth and support meant so much.
