Hi Mandy and Anne,
I just want to say thank you again for everything you did to make Friday’s event possible. It really was a pleasure to work with you. You were absolutely on top of everything, very professional, and you made it feel like a warm, family event.
Very best wishes,
Ben
I recently attended the funeral of my dear school friend, after her sudden death.
Mandy and her team, welcomed me. Quite quickly, I felt comforted.
I’d never before attended a service conducted by Mandy, nor had I ever met her, but she loved my friend, and expressed her empathy to everyone there, right up until my friend’s final resting place. That genuine compassion was more than good enough for me.
There were two parts of the service that I will always remember.
The first, the first poem (picked by my friends’ family), which Mandy read out, that was it, tissues all round!!The loveliest and most poignant part, was Mandy’s beautiful way, of explaining the dash!! You’ll be so glad you heard it, and hopefully, as I do, reflect on it, often.

During one of the most difficult times in our lives, Mandy was a source of calm, compassion, and professionalism. From our very first meeting, they treated us with genuine care and respect, guiding us through every step of the process with patience and understanding.
They paid attention to the smallest details, ensuring the service reflected the life and personality of our Mum. Their kindness and sensitivity made a painful experience more bearable, and we’re deeply grateful for the dignity they brought to the farewell.
Thank you, Mandy & Anne, for helping us honour our loved one with grace and compassion. Your support meant more than words can express.

Organising a funeral is something no one wants to do. The funeral I was arranging was in Bournemouth, a place I had only visited a few times. I had no idea who the Funeral Directors were or what their reputations were.
As you do, I started ringing round for quotes. When I called Weldon Funeral Services, the first person I spoke to was Mandy. The opposite of all the people I had already spoken to. She had genuine warmth in her voice and made me feel at ease immediately. I knew that we were going to use Weldon. We were made to feel like we mattered, as people not as customer number so and so. Our deceased also mattered and the respect that was shown to our deceased and ourselves, again was genuine and not “part of the job”.
Everything was so professionally organised. With the order of service, flowers and music we suggested what we would like and it was done. As we were not local to the area, they also suggested somewhere for the wake and the catering.
Mandy and Anne took the time to know us and know our deceased and made suggestions we would never have thought of, even to keeping the ashes for us to scatter up country at a later date and pressing some of the flowers for us to take with the ashes and organising a Just Giving page for us. If you are uncertain about a Funeral Director, speak to Mandy or Anne before you decide, I am so glad I did.
Thank you again for everything you did for us.
Kim and Family
Nothing was too much trouble for Annie & Mandy. The love, support and compassion we received from the first meeting and throughout the whole, painful process was so caring and outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble, they sorted out everything, always at the end of the phone whenever we needed them, this still carried on after the funeral. We as a family are extremely grateful and can not thank them enough.
Sally and Michael

Dear Mandy and Anne,
Jean Hooker’s Funeral Arrangements for 21st February 2025
I and the family extend our heartfelt thanks to you both for the brilliant arrangements and service you made for Jean’s funeral. From the time we met at my home throughout the whole time of your management to put the service together, in conjunction with ourselves, we felt comfortable and confident that we had made the right choice of Weldon Funeral Services.
We had many compliments, all along the lines, that it was the best service that many of the congregation had ever attended. This was very much due to your impeccable arrangements, presentation of the service on the day, and the great respect shown where necessary. You both did a superb job.
Additionally, we appreciate your continued help you have provided for us, after the funeral, which is still ongoing. Weldon Funeral Services is highly recommended.
Thank you both again,
With our very best wishes,
Alan and Family

Paul
Amazing service from amazing people… Anne, Mandy and the team couldn’t have made my dad’s service any more special, they done him proud and we really can’t thank them enough… Totally recommend them to anyone as the service from start to finish was faultless… Thank you all for everything you’d done.
Elaine
The most caring people I have ever met. Compassionate people who understand your needs. Treat it as a personal privilege not a business transaction! There for you 24/7 … couldn’t and wouldn’t have anyone else take care of anyone of my family onto their next life. Very reasonable prices as they are there not to make a large profit like other funeral services do, absolutely brilliant.
Lisa and Mike
I would just like to thank Annie and Mandy for looking after my friend

Sandra
We wouldn’t use any other Funeral director. Mandy and Annie were so helpful and compassionate when dealing with us when we lost our Dad. The service was beautiful and went extremely smoothly. Also very reasonably priced. We wish you all the best for the future. Thank you.
