Many of us look to online reviews for advice and recommendations for all sorts of aspects of life, and they can be a useful indicator to families when considering choice of funeral director. For us at ARKA its tricky though, as we don’t like to contact families about giving us a review unless they’ve explicitly offered. We feel it’s best not to contact people we’ve supported unless necessary, as we know they have a lot to deal with following a funeral. So, we’re putting the message out there now that if any of you have worked with us and would be willing to say something online about that experience, we would be so grateful. We are all for sharing experiences and for people to gain information from those who have experienced us for themselves.

If you are happy to leave us a Google review you can do so by opening Google Maps and ensure you are signed in. Once you find Arka Original Funerals, Islingword Road, on the left, scroll down and click “write a review”. In the window that appears, click the stars to give a score. You can also write a review.

If you use Trustpilot then head there – https://www.trustpilot.com/ login and search for ARKA Original Funerals and leave a review. If you need any help with the process, please do feel free to get in touch with us.

Finally, if you ever feel like you would be happy to share your experience of bringing about a funeral with us, maybe with a photo or two and a bit of writing then we would love to share your story on our website and/or our social media. If this sounds like something you might be willing to do, please do get in touch as we would love to share your story in whatever way you are willing. Any photos are particularly appreciated, as a picture ‘is worth a thousand words’ or so they say.
