“Mum wanted a 'no fuss' cremation, and a celebratory church service when she died, and chose Celebration of Life for her cremation. I contacted them and registered Mum's details shortly before her death and their service was exactly as described in their brochure. Everything went smoothly and according to plan, and all contacts with them were friendly, efficient and professional. Very happy to recommend.”

“My father expressly wanted a ‘no fuss’ cremation. I wasn’t sure, but choosing Celebrations of Life has been excellent. I was told what to expect at every stage. We were able to think about him at the time the cremation took place and his ashes were returned within days. All staff were kind and efficient. The ashes came in a box with a lovely woodland scene and a tree was planted in his memory. We had a wake so that family and friends could enjoy all the memories we had of him. I will be very happy to have this myself one day and I can fully recommend C of L if you’ are considering this.”

“When my husband died suddenly in the early hours of a Saturday, it was impossible to get a local undertaker to collect his body and a basic cremation and service was going to cost more than £6000. Celebration of Life were kind, but not gooey when I called. An unattended cremation was just over £1300. The private ambulance arrived within 3 hours, despite traffic snarls, and two amazing women deftly got my husband, not a small man, onto a stretcher and down our twisty stairs. I was kept informed throughout the cremation process and accommodated my requests re tricky relatives. COL even returned his ashes to my workplace, as I could not be at home to receive them. Exemplary service all round. Thank you for your kindness and care.”

“My wife Dawn had sorted and paid for her own Pure Cremation to take that part of the stress of losing her away from me when the time arrived. Right from the very start of the process every member of the team were polite professional caring and amazing throughout the whole process. I was kept well informed on every step and Dawn arrived back home in a very calming and wonderful scatter box. I highly recommend this company”

“Seamless from start to finish. The employees at COL handled every detail with care and compassion and made a very sad event, more manageable. Plus the 'Plant a Tree Fund' in the National Trust is a lovely touch too. Very happy, and would recommend this company.”

“I was impressed with all aspects of the services provided to me and with the personal focus that I felt during my interactions with people. I found useful general information on the company's website before clarifying questions in telephone calls during which the advisers checked that I understood the topics we covered. The services provided were efficient, effective and supportive, reducing one major challenge for me in the weeks following my father's sudden death. I remain grateful for that support.”

“From the time dad & i phoned creations of life to arrange a policy, the staff were kind, conciderate & patient. When dad passed, creations of life provided comfort in mine & my families loss. The staff kept me informed on when they were going to collect my dad from hospital & when the cremation was to be held & at what time. This was done with great respect for my dad & for us his family. Staff also informed me when dads ashes including the small viles with dads ashes would be returned to me. On the day dads ashes came home the delivery was done with so much respect, dignity & kindness. The viles were in a beautiful velvet wallet & dads ashes were in a beautiful box with a woodland seen all around it. I even recieved a copy of the tree planted in dads honour through the woodland trust, which i will treasure forever. I cannot thank everyone at creations of life for their kindness, decorrum & compassion they showed me my family & especially my dad. I would & have sung their praises to quite a few people & will continue to do so. Thank you again for an amazing service.”

“A difficult and sad situation was made much easier each step of the way by the kindness and respect of the Celebration of Life people. Everything was explained in a gentle way which is very much appreciated at that difficult time. Even the man who bought our loved one home was very lovely, smartly dressed which made the handover feel dignified somehow.”

“Caring, committed and compassionate from start to finish. the team at COL are dedicated to making the most difficult times in life, that little bit easier to cope with. the additional final 'nod' to the dearly departed of having a tree planted in their memory is a beautiful little final touch to already outstanding service. Thank you so much”

“I recently used Celebration of Life for the direct cremation of my father. The whole process from the initial phone call to the delivery of ashes was very proficient. All the staff were courteous, emphatic and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend.”
