★★★★★ Very pleased with the friendly service we received from Tinneka. She made everything clear.
★★★★★ We decided to use Blackwells on the recomedations of others - they were absolutely amazing. So kind and compassionate. It s a fine balance to be dignified and respectful but at the same time not aloof or without humour Suzie got this exactly right.

Thanks again, the Moore family.

I would like to highlight to you that we selected Blackwells from a list of funeral directors solely because Blackwells are independent and family run and as su
★☆☆☆☆ I have giving this company one star because I found their service to be shoddy, rude and there manner not trusting for a company what was founded a long time. They are a company how will charge you a lot of money and not give what you payed. As a family member how addend my granddads funeral which they did on the 1 st of November 2017 at Kingsdown crematorium. They were 10 minutes late turning up to pick family up to take them to the service, no apologies for that. Also they decided to stop half way up the path so they could walk up. They should have walked up from the gates. The woman directo
