The arrangements were all dealt with by Jordan Firth who was excellent in his role. From start to finish he showed empathy, respect and care. Explained everything. Assessed our needs and requirements and acted on those needs, providing the right type of funeral for our loved one, which was close family and a few friends and the use of the private chapel for the service. Also to a wonderful celibrant, Jamie McKnight who gave a eulogy as if he was a family member.

Absolutely great service, very understanding of all your needs,very polite and listened to my needs,this company made me feel at ease and gave me peace of mind, would highly recommend this company, thank you to Jordan for his help with such a delicate matter.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Edwin Pounds for the professional and compassionate way they handled my father’s funeral arrangements. From the first meeting to the day of the service, everything was managed with great care, dignity, and understanding. Their guidance made a very difficult time much easier for our family, and we are truly grateful for their support and attention to detail

We would like to thank Melia Powell Funeral Services, for their totally outstanding, first class service at the funeral of our Dad, Patrick Foy
The excellent way in which the lovely Rachel put us at ease, from our first meeting and the wonderful way in which she helped us in our sorrow
Also, Zoe, who gave us strength, with her kindness and compassion, to give Dad, his most beautiful final journey x
Totally first class and we thank you from our hearts xxx

Where to start - Going through the proccess of loosing a loved one is VERY hard - My life partner of 47 years died after a 6 year battle with Terminal Cancer and arranged her own Funeral while she was still capable of doing so - i was left with the paper work and trying to keep to all the instructions left for me - I have never done this before so looked to Melia Powell for guidence - there i found a lady called Rachel - she just helped and listened and sorted things with nothing more than compassion - this ladys patience knows no bounds even when i was getting frustrated with Bradford Council rules, Rachel went the extra mile to make sure i understood what was going on - Almost a year since that fatefull day all is sorted and i know maybe can move on slowly -
I really dont know what else to say apart from THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart -

There aren't enough adjectives in the English language to express our gratitude to Zoe, Rachel, Steve and the whole team at
Sandbeds. Everything was dealt with with kindness, empathy, efficiency, accuracy, help and support. Communication was fantastic. The partners they use for flowers, keep sakes, memories etc are also wonderful. I cannot praise the team enough - we felt safe and comforted throughout the whole journey. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Zoe has had a lasting impact on me. She's amazing.

Brigid was superb from start to finish: marvellously supportive and kind, and going the extra mile on many occasions. She made the whole business of organising the funeral as easy as possible. Her ideas for additional elements of the funeral (like walking behind the hearse at the start) were excellent and she simply could not have been lovelier.

I honestly can't recommend Edwin Pounds & Sons Wibsey enough, Bridgin was quite simply a god send in what was a difficult time following my dad's passing. Her comfort and compassion that she showed my mum and I was exceptional and she went the extra mile to make my dad's wishes and ours come true. The rest of the team at Edwin Pounds & Sons are also brilliant and full of compassion. This company have been absolutely brilliant and my mum and I will be ever thankful that we chose them to look after my dad.
