★★★★★
From initial meeting, to the final goodbye, we have been supported and felt truly cared for by the staff at Peter Forshaw.
We truly appreciated the care all staff gave, and their clarity including pricing, the incredible number of ways we could tailor the service and post service arrangements.
Thanks to Amelia who guided us through the process with such care and professionalism.
★★★★★
Highly recommend Forshaws. Gareth was brilliant from start to finish. What we really appreciated was his ability to ‘read the room’ and match his style to how we were feeling. Very empathetic but also grasped that that we also wanted to remember our Mum with light heartedness as well. Couldn’t hand wished for better support throughout.
★★★★★
Gareth supported my sister, brother and I with the funeral arrangements for our mum. At what was and still is a very difficult and emotive time, Gareth guided us every step of the way with compassion and professionalism. Gareth was always on hand to answer any questions and everything came together beautifully on the day of the funeral. Thanks so much Gareth and Team for helping us give our mum the beautiful send off she deserved. Regards Lisa ( Nikki and Mark)
