Absolutely first class service from start to finish. Kate advised on printers and florists and liaised with the church. She was very professional and sympathetic. We had two masses for John and both were conducted with respect, professionalism and kindness. The funeral director Jack Uden and the pallbearers were immaculate despite the heatwave and even supplied water bottles and posies from the funeral wreath. It was exactly what John would have wanted...

Excellent from start to finish. Couldn’t have done anymore than what they did for our family. I work in the bereavement sector and Udens are a funeral directors you can trust.

From the beginning of our sad journey Uden’s treated us with respect from the lovely Spencer talking us through the process to even with one of sisters on FaceTime and organising the wonderful Nicola to take the service , Jason and Nick being on the end of the phone to answer any questions to the lovely (and very tall) Lee helping us on the day of our mother’s funeral to give mum the very best we could . I can’t recommend them highly enough or thank them enough.

I find this hard to write as it was such a sad occasion but W Uden and sons went out of their way to make this as seamless and professional as possible. All costs were explained, we could visit when we wanted and mum was treated with the greatest of respect. The whole process was extremely transparent and the staff were amazing. Spencer took us through everything and Lee was excellent on the day. I cannot fault any part of their service and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.

The Quinnell family would like to thank Udens and Sarah, at Eltham, for the excellent and professional service you gave us for our dear Brother Mark who passed on 31st March. The Celebrant Sarah did the most wonderful service and everyone said what a lovely send off for Mark. Thank you Udens for making it a memorable day on 22nd May 2026.

The care , compassion and professionalism from these guys was outstanding, nothing was to much trouble . When our dad Arthur Walker was collected from home he was covered in a velvet throw much better than seeing a body bag , so classy! The chapel of rest was beautiful too , not like others I’ve seen . So from start to finish an excellent service , our dad’s little French bulldog lead him out on the day which was beautiful. The guys and cars were immaculate. Highly recommend these guys , our first time using W.Uden & Sons

During the recent sudden passing of my mum, Uden (Bromley Kate and Darrell) were exceptional in taking away some of my burden. I found their level of service honest, professional and compassionate. The aftercare and phone calls from Kate were very thoughtful and appreciated.

Faultless service from the Uden's team at Sidcup. They could not have been more supportive and helpful to me and my family. On the day, the cars were spotlessly clean and the friendly team were immaculately dressed. I cannot recommend Uden's enough.

As a family we have had the privilege of using Uden’s Camberwell before over the last few years. Each time they have made the process so easy. From the time that we made the initial call to the day of the funeral they were in constant contact. Nothing was too small. Everyone we spoke to was very professional and extremely supportive. I cannot thank them enough.

Uden's recently oversaw my dad's funeral and I cannot praise them highly enough. From the very first contact with Spencer through to the actual day when Stanley looked after us, the standard of professionalism and respect shown was second to none. I felt in totally safe hands as such a vulnerable time, nothing was too much trouble for any of the team. I cannot thank them enough for the respect shown to my dad and the support we received, fantastic family run service and can't recommend highly enough.

The funeral service was excellent. The team were great and made sure everything ran smoothly. Ruth the celebrant was brilliant and it was a lovely send off. I can’t fault you guys. From the moment you picked dad up and looked after him for us to the final drop off at the wake it’s been as good as we could have hoped for.I’d have no hesitation in recommending you guys.Thank you.

W. Uden & Sons (Eltham) handled the arrangements for my late cousin’s funeral. Every step was smoothly and tactfully handled - from the initial enquiry and then the more detailed discussions, with Sarah making the whole process very straightforward, to the day of the funeral itself when Callum and the team could not have been more considerate and helpful. My thanks to everyone involved for their efforts in lessening the burden at a difficult time.
Mark B.

Can't recommend the Uden team in Bexleyheath enough - both Adam organising everything in the run up to the funeral and Stanley and his team supporting on the day of. They're very understanding of how difficult a time it is and they are so courteous! We kind of lost track of time between the church service and the burial but there was no hectic/boredom visible from the team who remained 100% present the entire time (no scrolling on phones or anything). Great service with the hearse and limousine and they also let us participate by pushing the coffin into the church. They think of everything - we had an easel with a photo which they kindly also set up and took down again. Thank you very much!

This is the 4th time my family have used W. Uden & Sons to look after our loved ones in recent years. The funeral for my uncle was in May 2026 which was a burial at Sidcup cemetery. Spencer guided me through the process and dealt with everything. I just had to say what I wanted. On the day Stanley in his hat and cane and the pall bearers were professional and respectful during this difficult time for us. I highly recommend W.Uden & Sons.

In 2017 Uden & Sons helped me to plan and fulfill the final arrangements for my spouse. Things were just as she had wanted them to be done. They handled every detail. From the gathering of her remains to the arrangement of private viewings and her cremation.I thank their entire staff for the excellent job that they did then. Their professionalism, attention to detail and exceptional kindness make them easy to recommend. They're honest, straightforward and provided all the assistance one could ask for.Uden & Son's made a dark time less difficult. I am deeply thankfull for the service rendered to me and my spouse. Thank you.

My father was insistent that we use W. Uden & Sons (Biggin Hill) for my mother’s funeral, and after the service we received I completely understand why. Everything was handled with great care, compassion, and professionalism from beginning to end. During such a difficult time, they made everything much easier to manage and guided us through every step with kindness and understanding. Nothing was too much trouble.Their attention to detail and support meant a great deal to us and was a huge help throughout the day. We are truly grateful for everything they did to give our mother the farewell she deserved.I could not recommend W. Uden & Sons highly enough to anyone looking for caring and professional funeral directors.

We received a first class service for our mother’s funeral last week. Spencer at the Sidcup office was most helpful guiding us through the arrangements in a calm and professional but also caring way at what was a very stressful and difficult time. We also appreciated Andrew’s calm and thoughtful guidance on the day. Everything ran smoothly and we could not wish for a more professional and caring firm to help us say goodbye to our beloved mum.

I wish to express my gratitude to Uden & Sons Family Funeral Directors for the exceptional service they rendered to my family and me. They demonstrated kindness and respect, patience and compassion throughout the entire process, from the moment we entered the Camberwell office and met with (Danny), who was incredibly welcoming and instrumental in assisting my brother and me with decisions regarding our beloved dad's farewell. On the day of the funeral, the team was superb, guiding my family and me through every stage of the proceedings. I extend my thanks to (Jack) for his outstanding leadership of the procession and to our limousine driver (Mike) for his agreeable companionship during the journey to the cemetery and subsequently to the farewell reception. I wholeheartedly endorse their services. God Bless 🙏🏽🙏🏽

We would like to thank W. Uden & Sons, Bexleyheath for the utmost care and support afforded to our family whilst arranging our Mum's funeral.They were on time collecting our Mum from her care home and were so professional and respectful.We had a face to face meeting with Adam Tremelling to arrange the funeral. Adam answered our questions/queries in a caring way which made us feel at ease and he also provided the right advice to help us make decisions. He was instrumental in arranging many visits for our family members to say the final goodbyes to our family.On the funeral day, Lee was the Funeral Director ably assisted by his team. They were very understanding and accommodating with certain rituals we had to follow. They made a difficult day easy to bear. Please convey our sincere thanks to the whole team.We have no hesitation in recommending W. Uden & Sons. In fact, they also arranged my dear Dad's funeral six years ago during the dreadful COVID times.

I lost my Dad on the 11th March 2026 - Jim Fairlie. I could not praise this company enough. They were so kind, professional and gave lots of lovely advice, which helped to make such a difficult time more bearable. Their offices were beautiful, the cars and staff immaculate and every time I visited my dad, they tactfully prepared me. I would particularly like to mention Dean and Sarah at the Eltham branch, who made and had every detail perfect. You have to be a special kind of person to do this job, dealing with people who are grieving, but they were wonderful. So from my family a big THANK YOU to them. x

Could not have asked for a better send off for my mother in law. Udens were unobtrusive but efficient, a reassuring presence who guided us through the whole process. It was obvious that what really mattered to them was doing a good job.
Anne T.
1777363996
After a loss in such sad and circumstances you need a team to be able to take care of the most personal and significant moments in a persons final journey. Spencer, Neil and Lee at Udens Sidcup did exactly that. Their service before during and after Mum service was provided with such compassion.
Andy S.

From the first telephone call to the final email, the service, care and attention we received was first class. Allan dealt with us in a friendly and professional manner at all times and nothing was too much trouble. Administration and every detail was handled with great efficiency and we felt cared for and considered every step of the way. The outdoor graveside service and committal was just so special and Jack was a complete gentleman throughout. It could not have been handled any better and the sun was shining - thank you, Udens, you did a great job and helped make Dad's send off the best it could be!

W. Uden and Sons provided faultless service and support during a difficult time for our family. They provided us with all of the contacts that we'd need to create a service that was a fitting tribute to my late father. All of their colleagues were well presented, courteous and sympathetic on the day. If you find yourself in need of a funeral director company, I'd look no further than Uden's.

From the Care Home, to the Funeral Home, and to my late mothers place of rest, W Uden & Sons Camberwell took great care of my mum, every step of the way. Danny from the Camberwell office made sure everything we needed to know was explained and all of our request and needs were met, and on the day of the Funeral, Callum and his team made the whole family, as well as our family friends, take part and share in a day that will always be remembered. The compassion, care and professionalism from W Uden & Sons is just superior, and I can not thank you enough for all that you have done for my mother and our family.

We were very impressed with the service we received from the team at Uden & Sons from start to finish. They catered for all our needs and did so with thoughtfulness and compassion.Throughout the time leading up to the funeral they made sure we had everything we would need for the day to go smoothly which I am glad to say it did, especially for my mother who couldn't have wished for a better send off of her husband.All I can say is a big thank you

Words can never describe how much the Uden Family helped at such a difficult time. The Camberwell office was sublime from start to finish Darrell, Danny and Nick was fantastic so professional and caring at every stage of the process and I am so pleased I picked that office to look after my dad! On the day of the funeral they pulled out all the stops and Matt who conducted went that extra mile to make sure my dad had the best send off I can never thank him enough. From the start when the two lads picked dad up to organising the funeral to the actual day we felt my dad was in good hands and I wasn’t wrong, you all are amazing and Thank you again!!

My family and I cannot fault Udens. From the first day we met to the point of the funeral itself they were the most caring, helpful and practical company you could help for. No hard sales pitch, just what you actually needed (with options to do more if you wish). On the day the cars and the gentlemen were both immaculate and extremely respectful. Do not hesitate. I only wish they had a branch nearer to where I live rather than just near Mums. Thankyou

On behalf of my whole family we would like to say a huge thank you to Nigel at Udens Biggin Hill and the whole team. From the first meeting with Nigel to arrange my dad’s funeral he was compassionate and understanding and took time to explain and arrange everything for us. the service at Bluebell Crematorium was perfect for dad and Andrew and the pallbearers were amazing throughout the service and driving us to the wake after. We would like to thank you all for making an extremely difficult time easier and a lot less stressful. Kind regards Faye and family

I cannot thank Gareth, Jack and the team for organising and carrying out my Father's funeral. Everything from start to the ceremony was handled with professionalism and with compassion.

From my very first phone call to Udens Orpington I knew we would receive a good service. The funeral packages that Udens offer are clear and comprehensive - we only had to arrange the flowers and wake ourselves, everything else was taken care of which is priceless when you are already navigating a difficult time. Their website is exceptionally detailed and everyone on the team that we met was respectful, helpful and kind. I appreciated Sarah's compassion & organisation throughout the entire process, the respect the guys who picked our mum up showed to her and the kindness & clarity that Dean and his team provided on the day of the funeral. The whole team made a difficult time much more easy to navigate, thank you.

I have used another funeral directors in the past and I was very disappointed. So when I decided to go with Udens in Camberwell I had high expectations. From start to finish everything was explained well by Darrell, they were easy to work with and the funeral was lovely and the service exceptional. I used them again recently and it wasn't the exception. Everything went so well, one of the Son's from the Udens family (sorry I forgot his name) guided my family through a difficult day without it feeling like they were just doing a job. A sad day became a perfect day. I would highly recommend them

I’d like to say a massive thank you to Adam Tremelling at the Bexleyheath branch. What a lovely man, very well and softly spoken and a true gentleman.If you are looking for funeral directors online and you happen to see W Udens and Family, please don’t look any further. This is it…..They are all fantastic professionals. I’m sure during the service and the interment, we couldn’t have been any slower but they still gave us all the time that we needed. Not a single word was uttered to us to hurry. It was very sorrowful and difficult times for us and they stood with us to the very end.The Jaguar hearse and the 2 Jaguar limousines we used including the drivers were all fantastic and the paging away was also done beautifully by the funeral director. Everything was done and done beautifully and fantastically.

We cannot speak highly enough about the highly professional and personal service provided by Uden's at Biggin Hill. The staff guided us throughout and followed our wishes precisely and put us in touch with a Celebrant who was equally professional. Thank you.
Ian G.
1776077030
We have used Udens a number of times for family funerals and they have always been extremely professional and helpful. This latest occasion (for my late wife) was no different and, in fact, they were even more sympathetic and helpful than usual because of the connection. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I believe that the sign of good undertakers is that you hardly notice they are there--they do the job without fuss and ceremony. Udens fill that role exactly. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Our dearly beloved mother passed away in her own home, January 2026. The specialist palliative nurses who visited and formally confirmed her death, left a booklet in which, amongst others, was the telephone number of Uden & Sons, whom we called. We had no previous knowledge of Udens, until we spoke to a sister-in-law, herself a senior registrar/manager for Southwark Council, who confirmed them to be a very good choice.Udens arrived to collect our mother's body within the time frame they specified. The 2 representatives Darrell and Nick, I think it was, were respectful, courteous and provided relevant information pertaining to what to do next. They left an information booklet.The same level of professionalism, empathy and courtesy was reflected in our post registration of death meeting, when again, for welcomed consistency, we met with Darrell, assigned to oversee our mother's arrangements. Darrell went through the various options for burial, buying the flowers, embalming, dressing the body, visiting the chapel of rest, setting up a 'Tributes and Donations' page, costs etc; and took time to answer and deal with our various questions and concerns.All staff with whom we came into contact, were friendly and helpful, even offering support, on more than one occasion, with parking in the small car park😊The day before the actual funeral we received a courtesy call from Jack Uden, who explained that he was to be our 'conductor'. He went through a checklist of things necessary to ensure the day's events ran smoothly and with dignity - ie arrivals and departures between the various venues - church, cemetery, hall etc At the cemetery, Jack, always attentive and dignified, ensued amongst other things, that all condolence cards were collected and passed to us.Overall, the service offered throughout our dealings with Udens, and particularly on the day of the actual funeral, by Jack, our conductor, and Ryan, the driver of our limousine which followed the hearse, was exemplary. We thank Udens for their care and support; and would certainly recommend them as Funeral Directors. Millie, Audley, Jennifer, Jacqueline, Sharon, Pauline, Mark, Darrell, Kim & the rest of our family and friends🙏🏿

My brother in law's funeral, Maurice Link, was managed by Udens, Southwark, and they did an absolutely superb job. From the day we initially went to arrange the details we were greeted by smart, friendly, knowledgeable, helpful staff. We had our own personal contact, Danny, who was available at all times to address any concerns and keep us up to date with how the things were progressing. The standard of professionalism, right down to the offices, vehicles, information packages and the demeanour of the staff was impeccable. The compassion towards the family was genuine and they handled everything with a sense of true respect for the deceased. I can not recommend this firm highly enough, thanks to all of you, five star!

You did the funeral for our Uncle last week and we brought the flowers down from Doncaster for him. I have experience of funeral directors from running and owning a florists and I can honestly say your service was above and beyond any funeral directors that I have experienced. Your attention to detail, your respect for the family and making sure we were ok was outstanding. Lee led the funeral and was amazing and Malcolm our driver was too. I honestly cannot recommend these people enough, a family business which hasn't sold out to a large organisation, I would 100% recommend. Thank you so, so much on behalf of the whole family for your organisation, respect and consideration

We would like to thank W. Uden & Sons of Eltham for their professional help in organising our mother's funeral. Sarah was a great help to us giving advice and making sure we had up to date information.From the first day we entered the Uden office to the end of the funeral they were so friendly and professional, the whole service was carried out with dignity and respect.Uden & Sons conducted our father's funeral some 16 years before, so we had no hesitation in asking them to help with mums.We thank you all for making the whole process so easy and personal.

I want to share my sincere thanks to Uden of Eltham for the outstanding care they provided to my family. Their service was first class from beginning to end.Uden looked after my dad in their chapel of rest with such dignity and respect until his burial. Knowing he was in their care brought real comfort to us during an incredibly difficult time.Sarah, Chris & Denise In particular were so helpful through out, warm and friendly.On the day of the funeral, Jay, the main director — went above and beyond in every possible way. He took complete ownership of the arrangements, from managing the church music to thoughtfully organising a chair so my elderly mother could sit comfortably at her late husband’s graveside. His kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail made an enormous difference.Uden also used their newest range of Mercedes hearse and limousine, which were immaculate and added a real sense of dignity to the day.Choosing Uden lifted so much of the stress and burden I was feeling while grieving. Their support allowed us to focus on being together as a family, and for that I am truly grateful.I cannot thank Jay and the team enough for their compassion and exceptional service

As a family we cannot thank Gareth & Charlie enough for everything they did for us at what was a distressing time due to Alan passing away so suddenly. From the first phone call they assisted us every step of the way, from collecting him from the PRUH to the funeral arrangements & providing an amazing & professional service on the day, I think we did my Dad proud. Our celebrant Jo Bamford offered us help & support in preparing a fitting service for his final journey.To the whole Uden's Team you were amazing & thank you for looking after us all.

What a fantastic service.We used Uden & Sons Family Funeral Directors to arrange our mums funeral after her recent passing.From our initial enquiry with Gareth at the West Wickham office and throughout the funeral nothing was too much for them. Even down to the Uden Conductor and staff wearing brightly coloured ties.Gareth walked us through what they could do at each part and tailored the day to our (and our late mums) wishes.Prior to the funeral we were given the opportunity of visiting mum in their chapel of rest.We elected to have a hearse with 3 limousines which were all matching Bentleys, all immaculate.The day itself went without a hitch with Uden staff taking care of everything.

Uden & Sons assisted with all the arrangements to lay my dear Mum to rest last Thursday at Bluebell Crematorium.From the moment I met Kate at the Beckenham branch, to when the very sensitive staff at the West Wickham branch let me visit Mum in the Chapel of Rest, through to the day of the funeral itself when Lee and his team took care of us and took care of Mum, it was clear to me and my family that Udens is the gold standard of Funeral Directors.Their reverence, professionalism, presentation, understanding and sensitivity are truly outstanding. I knew that my Mum was in safe hands and this went a long way to easing my anxiety around the whole event.I wish my Mum could have seen her send-off. It was beautiful in every way and the Team at Udens take a very large part of the credit for that.

On behalf of my family, I would like to thank W. Uden & Sons Family Funeral Directors in Petts Wood or their impeccable service in overseeing and arranging my late mother’s funeral. I would especially like to thank Allan for his compassionate and courteous service through-out the funeral’s planning and during our correspondence. The whole team are consummate professionals, and the Bentley package is exceptional value for money. The attention to detail is in a class of its own, and I am eternally grateful for the presentation of my mum whilst I visited her in their Chapel of Rest.This was a dignified and elegant occasion with everything our family had hoped for to pay a final fitting tribute to our mum. This is the fourth occasion we have used this company for the members of my family we have lost and will not hesitate to use them again in future.

I have not got enough words to describe the first class service we received from Udens.From the first meeting with Spencer to my mums final journey everything was perfect, just like my mum.When we first met with Spencer to arrange my beautiful mums final journey, he was very professional, caring and kind. Spencer made sure everything was taken care of and it was. Spencer handled everything, even the smallest detail. Any worries i had, and there were a few, Spencer reassured me every time.The way Spencer and the team looked after our mum was absolutely amazing. My mum just looked as good as she always did.On the day of her final journey, we had Jay leading my mum and it could not have gone better. From the phone call the previous evening to go through everything for the day to the actual day. Our mum could have not asked for better. He explained to me about every step that was going to happen. Jay and his team looked after mum and all of us very well.First class service from a first class funeral directors and their team.

From start to finish, everything was handled with such dignity and compassion, and they made an incredibly difficult time feel supported and personal. The day itself was truly special and a beautiful tribute to my mum.What made it even more meaningful was the personal connection we share — my mum used to cut Andrew Uden’s hair — and you could genuinely feel the care and respect that came from that history.

The family would like to express our sincere thanks to Udens, for providing the wonderful ‘send off’ for our loved one.We were thoroughly impressed with the reverence and respect shown to him, and to the whole family throughout.Thank you for the advice offered regarding the florist, the printer, and the catering service for the Wake.It was a unique experience, and we feel that Uden’s service: from collecting the family; his care at the service; the journey to the crematorium; and finally, returning the family home, was done with the utmost care, pride and ‘polish’, that we could not fault. We felt that we were in very good hands throughout, and that no one could fail to be impressed by your professionalism on the day.Your photographer was very discreet, and took some amazing photos, and we were moved by the video-collage created, which perfectly captured the spirit of the day.Thank you for giving us such a wonderful memory.

Losing a loved one is never easy, especially at Christmas, which was why both my mum and my stepdad's family had trusted me with all the arrangements; I was really feeling the pressure to get it right! The whole team at W Uden & Sons made me feel like I was their only client, such was the availability and attention they gave me from the first moment I contacted them, until after the funeral. They put me in contact with the celebrant, the printer, recommended flowers, made helpful suggestions for the service and kept in contact throughout the whole process.The day of the funeral ran seamlessly, thanks to the branch staff at Sidcup, Callum, Pat, Sarah Sweeney the celebrant, Paul at Spectrum Printing and the Kemnal Park staff; a difficult time was made easier and gave my stepdad the send off he deserved.His sister text me after, "I just wanted to thank you for making this a really special day, and helping us to celebrate J's life, and commemorate his death. It meant a lot to me, and for that, I'm really grateful."I honestly can't take the credit, that belongs to the Uden's Team, but he would have loved it!

This is a long review as the service I received was exceptional at Uden & Son. The reasons being and which may help others when looking for a funeral Director were as follows:Spencer at Uden & Son in Sidcup helped me with my Dad’s funeral in December 2025. From our very first meeting I was so grateful for his professional support and for the way he took care of the matters I was struggling to cope with. I needed assistance with a family plot which Spencer sorted out for me. He also made sure I could have the casket I wanted for Dad and arranged that this could be placed in the plot due to size. Whatever I asked for it was no trouble. Spencer did everything he could to ensure the day and everything was special for Dad. He even ensured we had the new Mercedes limousine as Dad loved Mercedes cars.Spencer arranged the funeral service at the Church and burial date and time and kept me informed straight away so that I knew what was going on so I could inform friends and family He even arranged my meeting with the priest.Spencer was so kind in dressing Dad in the clothes I gave him which was a shirt, his wedding suit and Nike Air trainers and Spencer kept telling me how smart Dad looked and how I was doing him proud.Everything for Dad was perfect. I was so very upset but Spencer helped me through the process. I was allowed to see Dad as often as I wanted and I was not made to feel bad when I rang and emailed so many times making a booking to see Dad. I was allowed time taking to Dad and the room he was in was lovely with chairs, tissues for tears and soft music.There was an issue with the soloist at the church and Uden & Son kindly paid for this for me so that I could still have this. That was such a kind thing for Mr Uden to do and I am so grateful to him for this.On the day Dad turned up on time and the cars and the way we were taken care of was second to none. Myself and Dad’s family and friends all wanted to carry Dad in and out of the church and Udens helped guide us to do this as it was important that we take care of Dad on his final journey.What more can I say but Thank you Everyone at Uden & Son.Charmaine and Family

We are incredibly grateful to Adam for the compassion and kindness he showed our family after the loss of our dad and husband. From our very first meeting, his friendly and approachable manner put us at ease, even allowing us to share moments of humour during such a sad time. He was kind and understanding throughout, guiding us with genuine empathy and care.On the day itself, Jay and the team went above and beyond and were truly exceptional. They treated our dad and husband with dignity and respect, and everything was carried out with genuine care and professionalism. Many people commented on how compassionate and respectful the team were, and it was clear they took great pride in their work. The cars were beautiful, and every detail was handled so thoughtfully.We felt truly looked after every step of the way and we can’t thank everyone at Uden’s Bexleyheath enough.

W. Uden funeral directors are exceptional. I used their Camberwell branch which was recommended to me by a friend. Danny and Darrell were so professional, paying attention to every details. They never seemed to be tired of me with my many emails and questions . I was reassured all through out. On the day of the burial their pallbearers and their leader Jack were so professional, articulate and caring. Thank you all so much.

Thank you to Adam and the amazing team at Uden's in Bexleyheath for looking after my dad, Frederick Ruffell in the run up to his funeral.

We came up to see dad in the chapel of rest the day before his funeral and everything was so calm and welcoming.Joe was such so good on the day and guided everyone through the process.

I just cannot express my gratitude, appreciation and thanks enough to W. Udens, Petts Wood. Not having organised a funeral before, I imagined it would be an almost impossible task, through the tears and grief. Chris, Allan and Andrew however carried us through every step of the way, with such care, compassion and professionalism. I hope not to be in this situation again any time soon but if fate takes me there, I know we will once again be in the safe, reassuring and respectable hands of Udens.

Firstly we would like to thank the whole Uden team. They have been totally professional, sensitive and extremely supportive at the difficult time. Nigel helped to guide us through everything from the service at Bluebell Crematorium, printing, flowers, cars and we were so grateful for his excellent recommendation of Jo Bamford. Jo took time to truly learn all about our mother and provide us with a genuine heartfelt eulogy that everyone loved - her ability to share our Mum's life and achievements was faultless - we had tears and laughter. At such a difficult time, all you want is to have the best people to guide you through this time and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Udens. Thank you for a first class, quality service.

At a time of stress and grief, Udens made the arranging of the funeral for our mother a much easier experience than could be expected. Sarah and Denise between them took me through the process and explained what would happen so that there were no surprises and no uncertainty. They were very professional yet friendly and sympathetic.The service of cremation at Eltham Crematorium was handled equally well by Joseph and his team.The music at the service was exactly as we requested. Spectrum, recommended by Udens, which printed the order of service booklets were quick in their turnaround and the booklets were of very high quality.All in all, I can and do recommend Udens highly.

We used Uden & Sons Sidcup to look after my auntie back in March 2016, and had no hesitation in approaching them to look after my uncle in November 2025.From our first contact phone call last year, everyone at the Sidcup branch has been kind, sympathetic, courteous and totally professional, in phone calls, emails and face to face.These attributes were maintained totally on the day of the service and committal.Sincere thanks to everyone involved.

My brother and myself cannot speak highly enough of Uden’s. From our 1st meeting with Allan through to the day of the funeral itself nothing was to much trouble.We lost our father on the 24/11/25, but the funeral was not until 2/1/26, so a long time.On the day itself the whole team could not do enough for us, and Jack was very professional and everything went smoothly.Would highly recommend.

W Uden & Sons, provided the funeral services for my late mother under the care of Sarah @ the Orpington branch. The care provided by the entire team was nothing short of exceptional, accommodating cultural traditions and adapting their services to allow us to do what we needed to for the final journey for mum. Alfie the specialist was superb in providing support and assistance when needed with the rituals. The drivers and funeral conductor (Jack Uden) were attentive, empathetic and supportive throughout the day. They provided an expectational service with great attention to detail, and totally respectful of what was needed. I can not recommend W. Uden highly enough, they won't let you down.

I lost my dad recently and, for the first time, had to arrange a funeral myself. Udens Bexleyheath exceeded all expectations, and I will be forever grateful for the dignity, kindness, and professionalism they showed my family and my dad. The Bentley cars were beautiful, and the care, compassion, and attention to detail from our arranger Adam was second to none. The conductor Jay on the day was also absolutely fabulous. They made an extremely difficult time a little easier, and I can’t thank them enough.

From the moment we met Sarah, we felt immediately at ease and as though we were her priority. Every step of organisation was explained to us clearly and our questions were answered with urgency and clarity. The image of the cars and flowers was breathtaking and the funeral attendants, led by Lee, were professional, compassionate and extremely caring. Udens stated, ‘it was a privilege to take care of ‘ my husband (our dad) and that’s exactly how you made us feel. We cannot thank you enough.

Uden has provided a service for both my late mother in 2012 and my father 23/12/2025.This company is spot on from the on set, they treated my deceased father with respect taking him from his home, the meeting with Daniel was also very comforting and respecful, he explained the whole procedure of the service they provide and what to do and expect. There was empathy and a natural caring manerism for me and my sister during our meeting, he also arranged the cemetry and pastors dates which waa perfect for us.Adam i think his name is, tall slim light brown hair was ever so polite and called me the day before to let me know he is the person allocated to me for the day, he really did ensure all went well, he even gave me a bag to put my trainers in after the burial, Udens have everything at hand and they are a wonderful team i hope they know who iam refering to regarding this funeral day and on 3/12/2025. You were all professional and showed empathy and have that caring nature about you all. I want to say a big thank you to you all from me and on behalf of my family you all did a wonderful job and i would definately use your company again, its beautiful in all that you do with respect.Thank you

We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Adam for his very caring support during the lead up to Mums farewell. We felt loved, cared for and nothing was too much trouble, we had many questions and concerns and Adam was always available to reassure and carry us through a traumatic time.On the day of Mums farewell we were honoured to have Jack leading as the Director with his caring team, he was so kind and reasssuring and made us feel so special and again nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend this lovely caring company and feel so blessed to have had them look after us all so well.

A friend recommended Uden's. From the moment I walked into the Bromley office, there was a sense of calm, Kate was professional, reassuring and installed confidence in me that she would manage the funeral arrangements from there on in. she suggested a venue I had not thought of for the wake, it just happened to be where I met my wife. she personalised everything from referring to my wife by the name everyone called her and not what was on the paperwork. Uden's attention to detail even in the small things like making sure the flowers were delivered to the office the night before, colour of the ties the staff would wear on the day (bright red in my case), to a call the night before hand to reassure me and run through what would happen in the morning.from the funeral conductor to the drivers all personable, courteous and professional. Everything was seamless. I would recommend them to anyone in the unfortunate position to be looking for a funeral director. Mark

Darren and his staff could not have been more caring in dealing with arrangements for my late husband’s funeral. Nothing was too much trouble. The celebrant, Kate , gently and sensitively helped us prepare for and conducted the service wonderfully.

We chose Uden's West Wickham for our lovely mum's funeral not because of recommendations but simply because our mum and dad both worked for Barclays Bank and Udens are based in the Barclays Bank building where our lovely dad worked back in the 60s. It felt right that mum should rest there ahead of her funeral. It bought us comfort. From the start Udens took care of mum for us. When they came to her house on the day she passed they made her bed and left her room as she would have wanted, what a special thing to do. Gareth then looked after us and guided us gently to enable us to plan mum's funeral at the Bluebell Cemetery. He recommended Jo Bamford to conduct the service for us. Jo was absolutely perfect and after the service some of the guests asked us if she had known mum before she passed. She didn't know mum but the way she talked about her and read our tribute so wonderfully you could be mistaken for thinking she did know her. Jack was amazing on the day...he and his team looked after us so well. We would not hesitate to recommend Uden's West Wickham to anyone wanting professional, respectful and kind funeral directors. We are eternally grateful.

W. Udens & Sons are the most wonderful team of people I’ve ever had the pleasure to deal with, particularly with a broken heart. My Mother was my world. I visited the Sidcup branch and was immediately greeted and put at ease by the care and respect of the team. I was thoroughly listened to and they completely understood and made sure my every wish was granted. Kate our celebrant and Callum our funeral Director were absolutely amazing, considerate, kind, professional, and impeccable in every detail. The care and respect they showed my Mother was absolutely amazing as was the compassion they showed to my family and I. It’s something that will stay with me for the rest of my life. I felt so proud I chose these wonderful people to care for my wonderful Mother. W.Udens & Sons are second to none. Thank you with all my heart.Stephen Hellyer.

W Uden & Son were recommended to us at an extremely sad and distressing time, but from the minute I walked in and met with Kate I immediately knew we could not be in kinder and more professional hands. Dean looked after us on the day of the Funeral and he could not have been more considerate even calling me on a Sunday, to confirm all would be in order, and he was assigned to look after us on the Monday … I could not recommend them more - they were all with us every step of the way and I will always be grateful x

Gareth provided first class advice and customer care in the planning of our late mother's funeral. The family has used W.Uden & Sons Family Funeral Directors previously and have found the staff to be kind, helpful and meticulous in planning and in meeting family requirements. Dean and his 'team' did us absolutely proud on the day of the funeral. All staff were extremely well turned-out, friendly, smart, alert, efficient and above all respectful and caring. The funeral cars were immaculately clean and very comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for Dean and our excellent driver. We were even permitted to transport a small lightweight mobility scooter in the boot of the funeral limousine! The service provided on the day was 'five star'. Thanks you so much for such wonderful service. You did us proud!!!

I honestly can’t thank the team ant Udens enough for the way they looked after us for my wife Ashley’s funeral last Thursday at Bluebell Cemetery.From the very first phone call with Nigel right through to the end of the day, everything was handled with genuine care, respect, and professionalism. Callum was an absolute rock on the day – calm, kind, and made sure everything ran perfectly while somehow still feeling personal and unhurried. The drivers and the rest of the funeral team were brilliant too; the cars were immaculate and they were so respectful and patient with our family.A special mention has to go to Matthew, our celebrant. He took the time to really get to know Ashley’s story and delivered the most beautiful service that captured her perfectly. So many people have told us afterwards how moving and personal it felt.In what was the hardest day of our lives, this team made us feel supported, listened to, and truly cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone – they are outstanding at what they do, and more importantly, they are good people.Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.Andrew Peerless and Family.

My husband made all the arrangements with Udens so that we would not have deal with it.From the moment They came to collect Chris from the Hospice, it seemed exactly as he would have wanted. The two gentlemen ( both named Alex)who came were so respectful and explained everything that they were going to do. Chris did not want any fuss or service, but what I witnessed was just , so comforting and as the car door shut I felt that he was indeed on his final journey. We were able to say our goodbyes and the men handle Chris with so much care and dignity.The aftercare was just as dignified and as they always referred to him as Chris rather than a client. Adam at the Office was very caring and comforting. Thankyou for your service at a very sad time.

Udens did my father's and mother's funerals impeccably. I had never organised a funeral previously. From the outset, the team at the Dulwich branch were calm, understanding and smooth. I had added complications involving delays because of a coroner becoming involved with my mother, but Udens waited patiently, and even called the coroner to try to help and assist in the process. They call the day before the service to introduce you to the driver and are highly professional. It feels like the 5 star, gold service each time. I cannot praise them highly enough.
Natasha S.

I just wanted to pass on my heartfelt thanks from the family for the way you managed my mothers funeral from start to finish. The service itself was beautifully conducted — dignified, comforting, and perfectly attuned to the spirit of what we hoped to convey. I’m especially grateful to Adam and Jack. Adam’s thoughtful coordination and quiet reassurance throughout made everything feel manageable and respectful. Jack’s calm presence and gentle attentiveness on the day itself brought great comfort to us all. Together, they ensured everything unfolded with grace and dignity.Every question I asked — and there were many — was answered promptly and patiently. Nothing was ever too much trouble. You made a difficult time feel less daunting, and your kindness never wavered. It truly felt as though you were looking after Mum as if she were your own — with tenderness, respect, and genuine care.Please pass on my thanks to everyone involved behind the scenes. The care you showed — not just to Mum, but to all of us — was deeply felt and will be long remembered.Highly recommended!

From the very first phone call, the team were incredibly kind, patient, and respectful, guiding us through every step with genuine empathy.They took great care to listen to our wishes and ensured that every detail reflected my mum’s personality and dignity. The service was beautifully organised, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Their support made an incredibly difficult time feel a little easier, and our family will always be grateful for the warmth and respect shown throughout.Thank you, Udens, for helping us give my mum the thoughtful and heartfelt farewell she truly deserved.

Uden & Sons delivered an outstanding, end-to-end service. From my first conversations with Spencer through to the funeral day guided by Lee, every team member was both extremely professional and deeply compassionate. Their expertise made the entire planning process effortless, and we are truly grateful for all their support.

Everything was taken care of in a caring, professional and patient way. Nothing was too much trouble especially as it was such a large funeral. I had complete trust in the process, and it was made very easy to organise. Thank you for making one of the hardest days of our lives much easier to bear.

W.Udens & Sons looked after us from the first day, leading up to and on the day of my brothers funeral. We couldn’t have asked to be cared for any better than we was. The celebrant they recommended us captured everything we wanted down to the wording and the delivery. I’m so grateful and thankful for making one of the hardest days so manageable surrounded by love and care. Thank you.Sandra Powell

Udens looked after my lovely wife Hilary with respect and dignity, Nigel at Biggin hill looked after us all the way, Julie Powell was an amazing celebrant, telling Hilary’s life story like she had known her for years, Dean looked after the Hearse and the funeral, the pallbearers all wore Yellow ties, Hilary’s favourite colour, the way the coffin was bought in to the chapel at Hither Green was done with military precision, they really gave us the send off Hilary deserved.Thank you Udens at Biggin hill.Dave Leach.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Chris, Kate, Charlie, Danny, and the entire team at W. Uden (Beckenham) for their exceptional support in arranging our beloved Mum’s funeral. From the very beginning to the end, you all demonstrated immense compassion, care, and understanding, which was truly heartwarming. The thoughtful details, such as the choice of tie colours, added a personal touch that made a significant difference to us. Kate, your compassionate and personal approach made the ceremony incredibly special and moving. It was clear that a lot of thought and care went into every detail, and it truly resonated with all of us. Seeing you wear Mum's favourite colour was such a beautiful touch, and it brought a sense of comfort and connection to the proceedings. It was a lovely way to honour her memory and made the day even more meaningful for everyone present. Danny, your calm and caring nature provided us with great comfort and reassurance. Your efforts in organising everyone into their seats and ensuring that each person had an Order of Service were immensely appreciated. Your dedication and professionalism exemplify what a wonderful family business you are. We are incredibly grateful for everything you have done to make this difficult time a little easier for us. Thank you once again for your outstanding support and kindness.

Udens took all the worry out of the arrangements, and the day, for Mums funeral, as they took care of everything. Throughout the process they were professional, compassionate, and respectful. We would not entrust anyone else to do family funeral arrangements. They were also able to recommend a wonderful celebrant, Jo, and printer for order of service.A difficult day was made much easier to bear.Thank you.

I recently had to arrange my husband’s funeral and having used Uden’s before for my Mum’s funeral I didn’t have to think twice about using them again.I can’t thank Adam at Bexleyheath enough, he was so kind, warm and empathetic throughout and immediately put me at ease and I knew both my husband and myself were in safe hands.Adam was so patient and compassionate, he answered all my questions and made me feel supported through every step. Nothing was too much trouble, his calm and caring manner and his unwavering support made an incredibly difficult time a little easier to bear.On the day of the funeral Matt and his team treated my husband with dignity, respect and professionalism and ensured every little detail was carried out as per my wishes.Thank you so much Adam and all the Uden team

Update to my original review - A year on and Adam at Uden Bexleyheath still cares and goes the extra mile. Thank you Adam for your thought. You really are one of a kind.From the minute we walked through the door at Uden Bexleyheath we felt supported and looked after. Adam (the manager) put us at ease and made such a sad situation as easy as possible to deal with. Adam really cares for those he looks after and their families. He pulled out all of the stops and brought Mum into his care as soon as he could and quicker than we expected. Knowing Mum was being looked after by him and his team gave us a lot of comfort at a very distressing time. Adam was at the end of the phone to answer any questions and went out of his way to accommodate any requests which we had.The celebrant which we were put in touch with by Adam was also a lovely man and did an amazing job.On the day, Uden did an amazing job for Mum. We knew exactly what would happen and when and everything ran perfectly. Spencer was in charge on the day and looked after us so well and was so gentle with Mum.This review could go on and on as there are so many things that could be mentioned.All in all we cannot recommend Uden enough. Thank you Uden..you were amazing and it meant such a lot.

Thanking Udens for the most exemplary service for my husband, Peter’s funeral on 25 September. Udens is second to none for their care, compassion and understanding. Spencer and the Uden staff are amazingly competent in their work.Under their expert guidance, we were able to relax and cope with one of the most important of days. I felt an understanding arm of comfort around me. We cannot recommend them enough.

I couldn’t fault the service we received from Udens at West Wickham and the after service from Southampton Way was so helpful. W Udens accommodated every request, they even chopped up the wooden frame that supported my husband’s bike the day after the service, which made it easier for me. What a lovely friendly bunch. Thank you so much!

Udens Bexleyheath couldn't have provided a better service for the funeral of my darling husband. From planning to on the day we felt reassured that everything would go as well as possible. The chapel of rest which we visited regularly over the 3 weeks Udens had my husband in their care, was beautiful.The dignified way that all aspects of the service was directed at the funeral was beautiful too. My husband would have been delighted. Thanks in particular to Adam and Callum.

I would unreservedly recommend Udens to anyone faced with the sad task of arranging a funeral. Right from the initial explanation of their simple and easy to understand pricing structure through to managing the day of our mother's funeral everyone we dealt with was a model of compassion and professionalism.Updating this review following our father's funeral I can only reiterate our original thoughts. Once again everyone we dealt with was a model of compassion and professionalism.

It started with Adam in the office who was kind and caring. He did everything to make it easy for us and was very respectfull. Last Friday was the funeral and Peter lead it perfectly. I was in a wheelchair and he took great care of me which took the pressure of my son and daughter he was so caring and kind. I would also like to mention Sarah Sweeney the celebrant that Adam recommended, she was fantastic and delivered the service beautifully. Many of the mourners thought she was a personal friend and knew Alan because of the way she spoke of him.I would highly recommend this group of lovely people, so professional and they had hearts. It’s not an easy job but they went above and beyond and I can’t thank them enough.

Service was exceptional. Having unfortunately had the occasion to use a different funeral directors I am able to fully appreciate the personal family service offered by Udens. The staff throughout were impeccable, in the organisation both prior to the day and the service on the day. The staff were immaculately turned out and their manner and kindness were faultless. I hope that we are not having to use the services of a FD in anyway in the near future but would not choose to use any other FD.I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I can't say enough good things about Spencer, Callum and the team at Udens Sidcup who we worked with for Mum's funeral. From beginning to end, they made the difficult and emotional process of planning and executing a funeral so much easier. Spencer was compassionate and helpful and always responded quickly to my questions no matter what day or time I contacted him. On the day of the funeral, Callum and his team (thank you Michael, our driver, for being so nice) were kind and patient and looked after Mum very respectfully. Everything was perfect from beginning to end. A huge thank you to everyone at Udens Sidcup for your part in giving my Mum the beautiful send off she deserved.

Udens have been impeccable with the service they have provided for our family regarding my late husbands funeral. Spencer was so kind and treated my Husband with respect and care whilst in their care . From when they collected my Husband to me collecting the ashes everything was handled with care and felt individual to our requests. Lee Jackson on the day together with the drivers could not have made everything go smoothly. Lee also gave us a very individual live performance of Elvis Teddy Bear which was one of my husbands requests. I could go on and on about the professional service we received by Udens but I shall sum it up by saying 5 star rating is not enough it would be more for me, family and friends. Everyone said it was a wonderful send off for my beloved husband. Thank you Udens.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️W.Uden and Sons family Funeral Parlour were absolutely perfect. Charlie, Jack, and the whole team made everything run so smoothly, and I couldn’t have asked for a better send-off for my dad. They took such care with every detail — knowing he was a Fulham supporter, they even displayed the club logo on the screen along with his name. It was such a thoughtful and personal touch that meant so much to us. Their kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail were outstanding, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them more highly.Jo also carried out the service I honestly highly recommend Jo as well.W.uden I honestly rate a million stars.Thank you for everything.

We recently used Uden Funeral Services for my dad’s funeral, and I cannot praise them highly enough. From the very beginning, our main contact, Denice Griffiths, was absolutely amazing. She guided us through every step of the process with professionalism, care, and empathy. Nothing was ever too much trouble – Denice went above and beyond to help with all the finer touches that made the service so personal and ensured my dad received the send off we had hoped for. She was organised, thorough, and full of thoughtful ideas that truly reflected what we wanted to achieve.On the day itself, the team were equally outstanding. Our driver, Bailey Rumbell, and the lead conductor, Lee Jackson, who oversaw the pallbearers, were exceptional. They were professional, respectful, and incredibly attentive, even making sure we were comfortable in the hot weather by providing water, tissues, and support whenever needed. Their warmth and care made a difficult day so much easier to bear.The service far surpassed our expectations, and we are so grateful to the entire team. We had actually changed from another funeral service to Udens, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. Everything was handled with such compassion and excellence – I would wholeheartedly recommend Uden Funeral Services.

Last Friday, Uden’s dealt with my husbands (John) funeral. From our very first meeting with Nigel / Stanley, to the very end, they were exceptional. They were very kind, respectful, considerate and helpful with each stage. Everything was handled professionally from the planning preparations, chapel visits and all the other finer details of the service. On the day of the funeral, it was conducted to a high standard and the cars and staff were impeccable. They exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend them. Many thanks, Pat and family

At a time where emotions are heightened, the staff at Uden's Petts Wood were respectful and calm and I felt that they would take the very best care with the arrangements for my father. From a personal call from the Clayton, lead on the day, Allan in the Petts Wood office who kept me informed as events progressed, Jo Bamford, our amazing celebrant who helped make the service, and all the staff unmentioned so far.

On behalf of my mother and the remaining family of Rudolph Weekes, I would like to sincerely thank W Uden & Sons for the exceptional attention, care and understanding shown from the collection of my father at home to the laying to rest at the cemetery.Every detail was impeccably seen to, the viewings in the chapel of rest were easily scheduled and the requirements for the funeral such as music checked and confirmed with the family.Special thank you to Darrel and Danny for their caring attention to my mother.An especially heartfelt thank you has to be said to the Funeral Conductor on the day Mr Andrew Uden who showed compassion, understanding of the family dynamic, the emotional weight of the occasion but also with a caring smile at the right moments.After leaving the church he directed the procession to pass in front of the family home where he placed a single rose an action which brings tears to my eyes as I write it here. Beautiful and befitting of my father`s memory.

Our family recently used Uden’s services in Eltham and we would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.Sarah is wonderful at what must be an incredibly difficult job. She went through everything with us very clearly and had a very calming manner. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she was quick to respond to our questions. She looked after us throughout with real care and kindness.On the day of the funeral, Stanley and the other staff were so kind, compassionate and professional. On the day before the funeral, Stanley called to run us through what would happen on the day and check in with us. The staff and cars were immaculate on the day and everything was handled with dignity and thoughtfulness. Thank you for looking after our family so well.

Best funeral directors out there!W. Uden and Sons were amazing from start to finish (shout out to Jason, Adam, Lee, Bailey, Spencer and our fantastic celebrant Leo). They felt like an extension of our family - supporting us every step of the way through such a difficult time. We honestly can’t praise them enough. Losing mum at such a young age was soul destroying and quite frankly, I wasn’t ready to let go (like most people) and ‘feared’ doing all the funeral stuff simultaneously in such a short timeframe. This ‘fear’ went away when we appointed W. Uden & sons. We trusted them wholeheartedly and they truly captured mum like no one could on the day itself.It’s also worth mentioning we had a set of challenging requests and yet the team managed all effortlessly.1. Arranging a funeral service 2-3 weeks after passing due to family members leaving the country beyond this (please bear in mind that it normally takes 2-3 weeks to register a death so this was impeccable timing).2. Arranging mum to be collected ASAP (she was 2.5 hours away) so the family had plenty of time to see her before the funeral.3. Liasing with the hospital to collect mum earlier than the norm.4. Allowing 1-1.5 hours nearly every day from when they collected mum to the funeral day to allow us to visit mum in there quaint and peaceful chapel (of which the makeup on mum was stunning! Everyone commented similarly).5. We requested family members carry the coffin on the day itself.6. We requested an ‘upbeat’ tune on the car journey to the crematorium and shout out to Bailey for letting us sing mums favourite song ‘Build me up buttercup’.7. Collecting mums ashes in out of office hours.8. Arranging the witnessing of the charge after the service.Everyone on the day echoed what the family already knew- how fantastic the team and day was. We truly felt like mum was with us and this was all down to this team right here.As an added bonus (and I couldn’t not mention), all the guests were in awe of how handsome the team were carrying mum and giving her the final goodbye - we know mum would have been in her element too! ;)Thank you again from the Smith family 😃

The care and attention to detail given for my mums funeral were above and beyond expectations. The staff were immaculately turned out, the beautiful Bentley’s were gleaming and the respect paid to my darling mum on her final journey was so appreciated as was the care and kindness given to the rest of the family and mourners. I opted to use Uden’s services for my mum as they’d previously taken my beautiful sister on her final journey and I was blown away by their care and professionalism. I would never use another funeral director having seen the level of service Uden’s provide, there really is no comparison. Special thanks to Matthew Uden for taking care of every detail and helping me with sorting all the arrangements. I will always recommend your company as being the best of the best, thank you so much.

We used W Uden & Sons for the funeral of our beloved Cotilda Cooper. On the day of her passing, many family members came to visit her at the Camberwell Lodge, her residence for the last few years. We stayed all afternoon and towards tea time, two members of the Uden funeral home came to take Mum there. However, one family member was on her way to see Mum. The Uden staff were lovely and said they would wait until we wanted Mum to be taken to the funeral home.When she did leave, the Camberwell Lodge staff formed a guard of honour for Mum's exit.The main staff member who looked after us at Uden's was Danny. From the outset, he was polite, pleasant and attentive. He explained in detail everything we would need to do.On the day of the funeral, Jack, the funeral conductor, was friendly, but professional and he put all of us at ease. The hearse was dressed with flowers and when we asked for her photo to be placed at the back of the hearse, they did this effortlessly.They directed the family's pallbearers at the church and Mum was transported to the front of the church in a dignified manner.After the burial, we, the close family, were dropped off at the venue for the funeral repast in the limousines.We would highly recommend the W Uden & Sons' team for their calm, pleasant, professional manner and their discretion and attention to detail at all times. They inspired confidence in us before the day and on the actual day and we would like to thank each and everyone of them who was part of our loved one's funeral.

This is our third time using Udens to arrange a family funeral. As previously experienced, the service received was both sympathetic and professional from start to finish. Alan helped us with our initial appointment and subsequent follow ups, supporting us making decisions at such a difficult time. Andrew supported and guided us through the day, all of our wishes were taken care of. We would not hesitate to recommend Udens, for a professional and sensitive service.

We attended the funeral of our dear friend Lyn Gentry at Eltham Crematorium on 30th July 2025. Everything was handled with great dignity and professionalism, and we want to thank Uden Funeral Directors for their care.It was especially moving that Lyn’s family were able to carry her coffin with such love. The funeral director leading the cortege was immaculately presented, and his smart appearance, calm composure, and use of the cane gave a sense of tradition, respect, and solemnity that set the perfect tone. His actions were proud yet sensitive — exactly what our friend would have appreciated.Having seen some unfair comments in the press, we want to say clearly that what we witnessed was the opposite: nothing ostentatious, only dignity, honour, and deep respect. We are very grateful to the Uden team for helping make the day such a fitting tribute.

I've used W. Uden twice in the last 8 months, for both my mother and father.They're very kind and compassionate, and honestly make you feel at ease during a very difficult time; every single staff member was so caring and patient it genuinely lifts some of the weight off your shoulders knowing the funeral is well taken care of.They offer recommendations when you're not sure, and talk you through anything you need help with, and are very quick to answer any queries through email or phone.I know they must be busy, being in London, but it always feels like they are dealing with only you, and never rush anything.The celebrants they had for both services were perfect - the one we had for my mum had us laughing through tears, it was beautiful.Both services were wonderful, I'm so glad I chose W.Uden, and I can't thank them enough.

A very good experience all round. It was extremely dignified and exactly as agreed. I have sadly attended three W.Uden funerals in the past 12 months, I can’t fault anything about the service. I would highly recommend them.

I can’t fault our experience with W Udens after mum died. From the wonderfully compassionate and respectful chaps who picked mum up from her care home, to super efficient Kate in the office, and the guys who orchestrated the actual funeral - the service and kindness shown was exemplary.All of the suppliers that were recommended were also absolutely great.A first class experience from start to finish at what was obviously a difficult time.Thank you to everyone at W Udens.

Udens took care of everything for my father’s funeral. They’re were amazingly caring and personable in a very difficult time for the family. The level of respect they showed us and my father throughout the planning process and on the day of the funeral was amazing. They gave us the closure we needed and the celebration of life we wanted. They really went above and beyond to help us organise everything well.

From the moment we first contacted W. Uden & Sons, Sarah and the team demonstrated unparalleled professionalism and genuine compassion. They guided us through every step of the process with patience and understanding, ensuring that all our wishes were honoured. The attention to detail was remarkable, and their expertise in handling all the arrangements was a tremendous relief during a very emotional time. Sarah's personal touch and the team's unwavering support made a challenging experience more bearable than we could have imagined. I highly recommend W.

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to W. Uden & Sons Funeral Directors for their support and for arranging the funeral of my father. From the very beginning, Sarah and Denise were always at the end of the phone—answering questions, accommodating last-minute changes, and offering advice and reassurance during a time when we were at our most emotionally vulnerable.A special thank you to Lee, our funeral coordinator on the day, and his team. They showed incredible respect throughout, almost blending into the background but always there when needed—whether it was quietly placing or removing flowers and orders of service, or appearing with umbrellas when the heavens opened.Lee was exceptional. He called the day before to ensure everything was in order and to walk us through the events of the day. On the day itself, he coordinated everything with dignity and care, guiding both our family and guests with compassion.The Bentley cars were a pleasant surprise and a most welcome addition—my father would have been so proud of that.Would I recommend W. Uden & Sons? Absolutely. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made all the difference at such a difficult time.

Michael Stanley HartMichael's funeral took place at Bluebell Cemetery on Friday 18th July 2025 and was attended by his family and friends.From the beginning of the funeral process, Nigel, at the Biggin Hill office, took care of everything for us. We chose the type of funeral we wanted including a photo tribute during the service and were offered recommendations for vehicles, celebrants, florists and printers.Jack Uden was our funeral conductor on the day and everything ran beautifully. Jack discreetly kept everything moving and no one felt rushed or pressurised at any point.The flowers, the Order of Service and the way our Celebrant, Julie Powell, read the Eulogy all just as we hoped for.I would highly recommend their services.Patricia Hart.

We cannot thank Uden & Son Funeral Directors enough for the dignified and respectful way they supported our family through the loss of our dad. From our very first meeting, they showed genuine care and understanding, guiding us gently through every step of the process.At no point did we feel rushed or overwhelmed. Their presence was always professional yet unobtrusive, allowing us the space we needed to say our final goodbyes in our own way. Every detail was handled with sensitivity, and their quiet support made an extremely sad time that little bit easier for us all.We are truly grateful for their guidance, respect, and compassion. They helped us honour our dad’s memory in the most fitting way possible.Philip & Jackie

W Uden & Sons provided an excellent service in connection with the funeral of my mum. I liaised with Adam Tremelling who was very professional and compassionate in making all the arrangements for her funeral. On the day the Funeral Conductor, Spencer was very respectful, helpful and composed and his team provided a seamless service.

I cannot fault W.Uden & Sons since we had the sad task of arranging my partner's funeral. Nigel kept me updated along the way, the limousine and hearse were immaculate, they arrived at our address just slightly before the agreed time (which wasn't a problem), the staff were so well turned out and very polite. The Celebrant, Phil Painter, was exceptional and the printing company, which was recommended to us, produced a classy Order of Service. W.Uden & Sons even kept our neighbour's ashes for five years without once asking us to collect the urn. At such a very difficult time they made the journey as easy as it could possibly be.
Jane E.
1751298630
We have used this company twice in the last two years and have found them to be just about the most perfect people to deal with in difficult circumstances. They deeply care about the service they deliver and they take a huge amount of burden off your shoulders with their expertise and professionalism. They always go the extra mile and make all the little things happen too. We cannot praise them highly enough. They have been of extraordinary support and reassurance to our whole family. Thank you to all at W Uden from all of the Hodges family.

Thank you all at W.Uden especially Kate and Charlotte who were so lovely to myself and my family on the passing of my husband for anyone losing a loved one it's such a sad time but the help and support from Udens made it so much easier to deal with from beginning to end we chose Udens because of the quality of service and the friendly but respectful way they dealt with us. For us this was the fifth funeral that we had chosen to use Udens for and the reason we've gone back time and again. Even today when I went to collect the urn containing my husband's ashes from the Beckenham branch Kate was again so helpful and friendly and she makes you feel so at ease . We couldn't have asked for a better all round service than they have us. So thank you all once again you helped lighten our load and made sure all went as it should. K. O'Sullivan.

Udens have been the funeral Director's for my family for many years. They collected mum from the care home, stored her in a coffin and made her up for viewing. They offered a sympathetic planning meeting and provided support throughout. They made the arrangements with the stone masons and the cemetery. On the day they were punctual, and the cars and staff were very smart. We were taken respectfully and punctually to the church, the cemetery and the wake.Thanks to Udens who looked after us and helped to make the funeral day go as smoothly as possible.Thanks also to Udens for sponsoring Crescent Tennis Club where I am a member.

After losing my dear Mum I cannot thank Udens Petts Wood for their help, care and humility in helping me navigate the process involved in arranging a funeral that had to involve two locations. I would particularly like to thank Allan in the branch for keeping me up to date with developments after we scoped out my requirements. In addition I would like to thank Clayton and his team of pallbearers on the day for their smartness, humility and the way they operated with military like precision. I would certainly recommend Udens Petts Wood for anybody who is put in the same unfortunate position as having to arrange a funeral.

We was recommended to W Uden and Sons from a friend and when we arrived we was very welcomed and the workers were so so polite and explained everything to us. We was extremely happy with how things went. On our special day everything was beautiful, the service and the undertakers were so polite and caring and put a smile on everyone’s face. The amount of comments we had from friends and family for how beautiful it was all done. They also looked after my husband extremely well and everything that was asked of them for the care of my husband was done. On a sad day we all ended with smiles on our faces due to all the funeral team and the celebrant they recommended. Would definitely recommend using them and would like to say thank you to all the staff for their help and compassion.

after losing our mum we asked Udens to look after us through this difficult process and once again they didn't let us down, Allan, Andrew and Jack in particular were there for our every need and carried out the service in the professional and dignified way we had previously experienced. We wouldn't hesitate to advise anyone having to use these services to trust Udens , they were just simply the best.

You really could not do any better than choosing Uden & Sons to celebrate the life of and take care of your loved one. The whole team at West Wickham was absolutely brilliant from start to finish (and I am sure there are many more people behind the scenes). The planning was meticulous, nothing was too much trouble and Charlie walked the fine line between respect and familiarity perfectly.On the day, the whole event was flawless, and they instilled a confidence in us that meant we were free to mourn our Mum rather than worry about the finer details. Callum and Ray were amazing; respectful, organised, friendly and professional. The attention to detail in the whole process really made the difference. We used another company from the same area last year and the difference between the two was night and day. Thank you Charlie and your team - you are all a credit to your profession.

We used Udens for my nan’s funeral and I can honestly say they were exceptional from beginning to end. The whole team were kind, compassionate, and incredibly professional – nothing was too much trouble, and they made such a difficult day feel that bit more manageable.The attention to detail was beautiful – from wearing ties in my nan’s favourite colour to creating a thoughtful little posy of flowers for us. The funeral bearers carried out their roles with such dignity and care, treating my nan with the utmost respect, which meant so much to us as a family.A heartfelt thank you to Stanley, who supported us every step of the way with patience, empathy and genuine warmth.

We have recently used W. Uden & Sons Biggin Hill branch for our close friends funeral. From start to finish Nigel at the Biggin Hill branch has been very understanding, helpful and attentive dealing with all the arrangements. Everything was handled extremely professionally from the initial preparations, visiting our friend in the chapel of rest, to the finer details of the service.The funeral was lead by Jack, our driver was Bailey, both were extremely helpful on the day and we felt safe in their hands. We choose the Bentley package, the cars were impeccable, the team extremely professional, the whole funeral was conducted to a high standard with excellent attention to detail. I would use Uden’s again without hesitation.

My husband died this year after a long struggle with heart valve disease. Like many of you who might read this review, I was not ready yet to say good-bye, although I knew this moment was coming sooner rather than later. I did not want to have to deal with the funeral of my husband of 50 years, it was the part of the process I dreaded. I chose Udens mainly because of their reviews and I am so glad I did. From the first phone call to Allan, I knew I had made the right choice. I met Kate Georgiev for that first meeting to discuss arrangements. What a lovely, understanding and compassionate lady. She chose the celebrant for me, Phil Painter. He helped me with the planning of the funeral service. So many people spoke about how lovely and personal that was, reflecting my husband’s life. Andrew Uden and his team guided us through the “funeral” day. I cannot recommend them enough, if you are having to go through what I did a few months ago. They will understand how you feel, help you, be kind and sympathetic and much more. I cannot thank them enough.

We recently entrusted W. Uden & Sons, with the arrangements for our mother’s funeral, and I cannot thank them enough for the exceptional service they provided. From start to finish, the team was professional, compassionate, and deeply respectful, guiding us through each step with clarity and kindness.They were consistently informative and communicative, ensuring we understood all the options available and were fully supported throughout. Nothing ever felt rushed or impersonal — they truly took the time to listen and accommodate our wishes.One particularly meaningful gesture was allowing my niece and nephew to travel atop the carriage, alongside the carriage driver, during the procession. This incredibly special moment brought great comfort to them and to all of us — a memory they will always treasure.Their thoughtfulness, flexibility, and attention to detail meant so much during such a difficult time. We are incredibly grateful for their care and support, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services to anyone in need of a team who are not only highly professional but also genuinely kind and empathetic.

This is the third funeral she has taken for our family and yet again her kindness, her compassion and genuine care for all involved is why would only ever recommend and use her. Simply beautiful.

Through really difficult times Udens were a god send … I was thinking of 2 funeral directors to take care of my late beloved mother in her final days with us ! The instant i walked in it felt ‘right’.Charlie thankyou so much for all you did. Nothing was ‘too far ‘ or not dooable .. complicated by my mother’s culture and religion pre funeral days. They picked mum up rapidly which gave me great comfort. Listened to everything I said and needed … delivered everything I could ask for.The day of the funeral day was also so slick and executed to perfection. The drivers worked with dignity and respect and showed immense professionalism … so well presented and my mum would have been proud of them. The Bentley package was the least I could do for my mum and her love of posh cars. These are stunning and again I could feel her smiling …Sadly in life this may not be my last one to arrange and I will not hesitate to walk through the doors again if the need arises. Even if it’s my own !

There are many Funeral directors in South East London but none are even close to Udens. On mums passing, Andrew quickly arranged for mum to be collected, lee and Adam showed so much respect and compassion for my family, it will never be forgotten.Charlie took care of everything, taking the pressure off me, when arranging the funeral.The Funeral was led by Lee, so many people, at the funeral, commented on how smart he looked and how professionally he conducted the funeral. Lee even made 3 posies for my brother, sister and me, such a lovely touch.Thank you to everyone in Udens, including the bearers, who made the entire process so special.- Simply Superb

Charlie, Stan & The Uden team, were supportive, compassionate, and seamless on the planning as well as funeral day for my late father. Its a really difficult thing to select a funeral directors, but they were transparent, understanding, knowledgeable. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to someone else. They didn't miss a beat. Everything was planned and carried out our wishes with compassion, care, dignity and poise. I cant highly enough recommend Charlie, Stan and the rest of the Uden team. We are forever grateful for the care we received during our most difficult time. Thank you again.

We entrusted W. Uden & Sons to lay my mum, Alice, to rest towards the end of February after she sadly passed away suddenly following a short stay in hospital. From the moment they brought my mum into their care while the funeral arrangements were being made, they were incredibly supportive accommodating our requests, answering any questions we had, and offering valuable guidance on best practices. Given the circumstances, we couldn’t have asked for anything better.We have used W. Uden & Sons' services a few times in the past, and their unwavering professionalism, compassion, and patience have always stood out. A special thanks to Ben and Stanley, who also conducted my mum's service, for everything they did for us. I honestly cannot recommend their services highly enough.

I cannot recommend W. Uden & Sons highly enough. From start to finish, their professionalism, care, and attention to detail were second to none. Kate was absolutely wonderful—compassionate, understanding, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. She made everything so much easier during such a difficult time, ensuring every detail was just as we wanted.The service on the day was flawless. The team was impeccably presented and the beautiful cars added a real sense of dignity to the occasion. Every aspect was handled with the utmost respect and professionalism, giving us complete confidence that our loved one was in the best possible hands.It’s fantastic to see Uden’s in Beckenham—they truly bring a level of service and care that is second to none. Thank you for everything.— James

Exceptional Service with a Personal TouchMatthew and his excellent team have consistently provided outstanding service over the years. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and personal approach make a difficult time much easier to navigate. They take great pride in their appearance and the way they conduct themselves, ensuring everything is handled with dignity and care.When comparing prices with other funeral directors in the area, we found their service to be far superior while remaining competitively priced. The annual remembrance carol concert is also a truly thoughtful and touching event, reflecting their commitment to the families they serve.I cannot recommend them highly enough for their unwavering quality, compassion, and dedication.

Shortly after my father was discharged from hospital under the palliative care team, I phoned W. Uden & Sons and spoke at length to Charlie Uden, about the steps my family would need to take when we lost my dear dad.From the moment I first spoke to Charlie, through to when me and my family said goodbye to the team who oversaw my dad’s funeral, we couldn’t have been any happier with the service they provided to us.Not only did they treat my dad’s body with the utmost respect and dignity when they came to collect him, but their communication throughout what was one of the hardest times of our lives, was first class.We followed Charlie’s recommendation in respect of his choice of florist and printers (for the Order of Service) and were delighted with both.My family and I are so very grateful to Charlie and the rest of the team at W. Uden & Sons and would have absolutely no hesitation in using their services again.

I wish I could add more stars. I can only add 5. Uden’s in Southampton Way were so kind and supportive at such a difficult time for us; they made everything feel easier. They were attentive, respectful and listened to our ideas and supported us in creating a celebration of a wonderful life for my Dad. I couldn’t list one person above any others, because everyone was exceptional in the care they took with us; from the drivers, the organisers on the day, the amazing celebrant and everyone beforehand. They made us feel safe and secure throughout and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

We used Uden & Sons in May 2024 for our Mum’s unexpected death, when we first met Stan who walked us through the entire process with compassion and warmth. He also led our Mum’s funeral on the day and Sarah, their photographer, came to take photos so that our father, who was terminally ill and unable to be at the funeral, could be a part of it. When our father died just nine months later, there was no doubt in our minds that we would use Uden again and we did so this January 2025, requesting Stan and Sarah again, both of whom were there and made the loss so much more bearable. Every member of staff there manages to express genuine warmth without compromising professionalism and that is something that can be hard to combine. We had the Bentley package both times and the cars were absolutely immaculate. They are a family business and they made us feel like a part of theirs, which was immeasurable at a time when we were losing our own. Thank you so much Stan, Sarah, Sarah, Ben, Jay and all at Uden & Sons for supporting us. You do a hard thing, wonderfully.

This isn’t the first time we have used W.Uden&Sons and there was no doubt we would use them again for my husbands funeral.From the moment we walked in the door at their Biggin Hill office Nigel took care of us he was kind, courteous, caring and sympathetic.Everything was arranged seamlessly, and we had excellent customer service and was kept up to date from start to finish .We chose their Jaguar Package for my husbands funeral and it didn’t disappoint.Everything was taken care of, and at such a distressing time this was most welcomed. The day before we were contacted by Andrew and he told us he would be looking after us for the day of the funeral.On the day of the funeral the cars arrived and they looked immaculate. The gentleman were all dressed impeccably and wore ties in the colour of our choice, which was blue as my husband was a Chelsea fan.They took care of us all from the moment they arrived to the moment they left us. We couldn’t fault the service we received and would highly recommend W.Uden& Sons . Thank you for making such a difficult day more bearable for us all. We are truly grateful .

Thank you to Uden's for their kindness. The service they provided was 'perfect'. Nigel at the Biggin Hill branch was warm, compassionate and professional and is a real credit to the company. Jack Uden, with his colleague transferred my husband from home to the chapel with dignity. Jack also lead the funeral with his team with the same warmth, compassion and professionalism. This meant for us a real continuity of care. We cannot recommend Uden's highly enough.

I would like the thank W.uden and Sons without them my dad wouldn’t of had the send of he deserved, from the first conversation over the phone to the day of my dads funeral the staff at Udens couldn’t do enough for me and my family at such a difficult time. They were extremely helpful and really made such a difficult time a lot easier. We went with the Bentley package for my dad and the cars were beautiful inside and out and extremely comfortable. The respect my dad was shown from Udens was unmatched, I hope we don’t have to use Udens anytime soo but when the time does come and we ever need a funeral directors we will definitely be using Udens.

My mum had sorted her own funeral through Udens in Biggin Hill and she made an 3xcellent choice. It was in trepidation I walked through those doors to find out what I did next. From that moment I was guided gently and sympathetically through the whole process. From beginning to end I was supported by the kindest people and I feel that my mum would have been so proud of her dignified farewell. A big thank you to the whole of the Udens team

We chose Udens to conduct the funeral service for my husband Bill. From start to finish the whole thing was handled with huge sensitivity and compassion by Nigel at the office and we ended up having had the most perfect send off for him.Udens arranged for us to have a wonderful lady celebrant , Jo who was an enormous help in planning the service and certainly did 'hold our hands' throughout. She made some of the congregation feel as it she had known Bill well which made the service even more personal.... a true gift. Spencer our conductor was also delightful and just so sensitive to everyone's needs (including our faithful dog Pip) but also carried out his duties with precision and professionalism second to none. Thank you to all your team who helped us to have such a memorable and perfect send off for a wonderful man.

From beginning to end W.Udens & Sons have been absolutely brilliant. Nigel showed us all compassion and was so patient and understanding at such a difficult time.

He is an absolute credit to your team. The day was flawless, he really did make us all feel like part of the family for the day.

Nigel at the Biggin Hill branch of W. Uden dealt with the funeral of my father with sensitivity and kindness. He responded promptly to messages and could not have been more efficient in setting up the arrangements. Lee, who conducted the funeral itself with great elegance and dignity, made a point of checking in with me the day before to make sure that everything would go smoothly. It was a day of great sadness but I felt that my father had been honoured and celebrated in a way that gave the family comfort and a sense of completion

A heartfelt 5-stars review for Udens Camberwell branch and its team for their services and professionalism as well as personalized experience during such a difficult time.

As a family, we have always turned to Uden's for our loved one's funerals.We find them to be very caring, considerate and of course very experienced. What is a very sad & daunting time, is made easier, knowing you can trust them implicitly.We entrusted our darling Mum into their care recently & Mum was looked after with quiet dignity until the service, which, with the help from Chris at the Dulwich office was all that we could have wished it to be for our Mum.Liaising with both the church & the grave personnel on our behalf, we would not have known where to start without his guidance.We would not hesitate in recommending Udens.

Udens took over this family funeral at fairly short notice from another undertaker, when the latter could not meet the desired funeral date. Udens were able to take over and meet all the requirements for the funeral, and provided a first class and dignified service throughout.

Amazing Funeral director's!We were recommended Udens by the care home my uncle passed away in, and honestly they provided the best support, assistance and help. This is the first time we have had to deal with a death in our family, and they really held our hand through the process. They were patient with us, whilst the family was organizing the funeral overseas. We ended up doing a repatriation and they recommended a company based in Nigeria who would deal with things on the other end, and once again they did not disappoint. Very reasonably priced compared to the other directors out there. Honestly cant thank them enough!Special thanks to the Eltham & Camberwell team.
Sandra J.

Very professional and friendly. Booked my Dad's funeral with them and they were very helpful and caring. They made arrangements for the care of my Dad from hospital to their Camberwell Branch. They advised me of everything I needed to do. The day before funeral the lead director dealing with the arrangements phoned me to introduce himself and told me what time he would be arriving with Dad, he checked if we had flowers for the hearse at our house so he could arrange extra time to place them on hearse and displayed nicely. On arrival at the Crematorium he made sure everyone had a order of service. They treated the coffin with the greatest respect. The hearse and 2nd two limousines were immaculate and the staff from Uden's were smart and professional. Also used Uden's a few years ago for my mum's funeral. Would highly recommend.

After losing someone close, making funeral arrangements is one of the most difficult and daunting times we all face at some time in our life.However, if I could give W. Uden & Sons 10 stars I would. Right from the very start they were highly professional yet compassionate, whilst also outlining and covering everything clearly during the meeting. The communication in the weeks leading up to the day was also exceptional.The day itself couldn't have gone any better. The level of service and professionalism was second to none throughout, of which my late grandfather would have been very proud. Literally, every detail, however small, was thought of and taken care of and they clearly do treat it as though they are looking after one of their own family.Therefore I cannot commend Chris at Camberwell and Spencer ( the Conductor on the day) enough for the effort they both put in. Exceptional true gentlemen.When the time sadly comes again, I can honestly say I would not hesitate in using anyone else but W. Uden & Sons.

My Brother and I were very impressed with the professional way that Chris and the rest of the staff handled our Father’s recent Funeral.They were sympathetic and courteous throughout the whole process.A special thank you to Sophie who had to deal with a rather unpleasant person, she dealt with the situation perfectly!

On the day, Adrian and Sam were reassuring, kindly and attentive. The procedures were carried out with dignity and reverence but were not over heavy in a way that would have lessened the sense of its being a family occasion.Prior to the day of the funeral, the manner of everyone we had contact with at Udens was always respectful and charming without being obsequious. Everything was explained clearly and all the organization and responses to our questions were done promptly and efficiently.The service was lovely. Before the funeral I was distressed and unhappy but thanks to you and Reverend Steve I now feel sad but calm.The only criticism that I have was that I would have liked to have been one of the pall bearers. I understand that there are probably legal reasons but, with covid and the fact that most of the attendees were elderly and travelling from many different places, it was impossible to organize that the family carried the coffin. I think that Udens could investigate the possibility of 1 or 2 family members supplementing the professional pall bearers in a way that doesn’t affect the security of the coffin and the congregation when it’s being carried.

When i had to arrange a funeral for the first time to be honest I didn't know where to start.I decided to go to W.Uden & Sons in DulwichI was greeted by by a gentleman by the name of Trevor who immediately put me at ease with his warm professional manner.He talked me through all aspects of the arrangements until everthing was clear and compleate.On the day of the funeral I was contacted in the morning by the funeral director Darryl,he talked me through the plans for the day and that put my mind at rest,when the time came he made sure everything was done ina respectful and careing manner and advisedmyself and the other mourners throughout thewhole time.The funeral staff are very smartly turned out,kind and helpfull and the cars usedare beautiful and well kept...I really could not have asked for more..so thank you W.Uden & Son for making one of the worst day's better.Yours SincerelyK.Stocking/Knight

I have lost 2 brothers, a mother and father in recent years, and Uden & Sons have managed their burials or cremations with the utmost professionalism, care and compassion. These events are awful things to go through, but having Uden & Sons by your side throughout makes a horrible process easier.

We used W. Uden & Sons for my mum's funeral as we had been given good reviews by other people in the past. I was not disappointed. Professional top service from all parties. From the day we informed them that mum had passed to the day of the funeral itself, we were treated with respect and dignity. We would not hesitate to recommend to anyone if they are looking for the best.
