Your Funeral Director will be able to confirm the details of this so you will know where your loved one is at all times.

Having to let people know that someone has passed away can be a very difficult and stressful situation to go through.

We are a member of the National Association of Funeral Directors and as such we abide by The Funeral Director Code. We also have a legal obligation to try and ensure the person who is arranging a funeral has the right to do so, or has permission from those who do. If you are aware that someone has been appointed as the administrator, you should only arrange the funeral with this person's agreement. If there is no Will or Letters of Administration, then the responsibility would pass to the next of kin.
A Memorial is a way of creating a lasting memory to help remember a loved one.

From 9 September 2024, there will no longer be a doctor's fee in England and Wales when arranging a funeral. This is because from this date, all deaths in England and Wales will be independently viewed, either by a relevant coroner or by a Medical Examiner and the cost will be met by the NHS.
A Medical Examiner is a specifically trained independent senior doctor who will scrutinise all deaths across a local area that do not fall under the coroner's jurisdiction. By providing a greater level of scrutiny over the cause of deaths; it is hoped that the introduction of Medical Examiners will make it less likely that unnatural causes of death will go unnoticed; that the number of deaths unnecessarily referred to the coroner will be reduced and that national data about causes of death will be captured with greater accuracy.
Medical Examiners, or Medical Examiner Officers, will also be available to meet with families, or their representatives, if they wish to discuss the cause of death.
I cannot recommend Jennings of Codsall. My family and I had a truly terrible experience during one of the most difficult times of our family.
Amanda, demonstrated a complete lack of empathy and compassion. She referred to my late brother as my late father, a mistake that was incredibly hurtful and disrespectful, and showed she was not listening to a word we said. When I tried to voice my concerns and fears, she consistently spoke over me with what felt like a memorised script, rather than addressing our needs.
The distress was compounded by another member of staff, Junior, who gaslit me, attempting to deny that he had said my brother's clothes would be cut and draped over him. This added an unimaginable amount of stress to an already heartbreaking situation.
We trusted this funeral home with the care of our loved one, but the care we received—for him and for us—was nonexistent. The experience was unprofessional and deeply distressing. Honestly, id avoid and use a family run funeral home, who truly care for your loved ones, and arent all about money money money.

Can't speak highly enough about Jennings. They were absolutely wonderful in helping plan my lovely Mum's funeral. Helen was so helpful and compassionate when we met her, and on the day of the funeral itself, the funeral director Gavin and the drivers were super efficient, and also very calm and kind. Their communication from making the first appointment to the funeral itself was excellent, and we will always be grateful to them for their services during one of the saddest times of our lives. They definitely helped us give Mum the goodbye she deserved and we won't forget it.
What can i say, outstanding. Jennings in Bilston were absolutely amazing. The care they put into looking after our dear beloved dad and us as a family was superb. They went above and beyond. We as a family can't thank them enough for the way we were treated in the day of the funeral and the lead up to it. Nothing was too much trouble. They made you feel like you could ask anything of them. A very special thanks to Carol, who was an absolute treasure and to Mitch and rest of the gentleman on the day of the funeral. Mitch, thank you again for all your understanding. God bless you all
