The level of care, commitment, sensitivity and kindness that they showed us, as a family, was outstanding. They were incredibly professional but they were also incredibly warm and friendly. In short, they took the sharp sting out of our sadness by showing genuine compassion every step of the way. I cannot speak highly enough of them. They are first class funeral directors.Pauline ★★★★★ 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.J P ★★★★★ W.

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.Kim C. ★★★★★ 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.

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.

Highly recommendedJackie R. ★★★★★ Very professional and caringDavid A. ★★★★★ Udens provide an exemplary, caring, professional service. The team there looked after us so well - our family are very grateful to them.Susan J. ★★★★★ 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.Leighsa ★★★★★ 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.Sharna V. ★★★★★ I can’t speak more highly of this company!

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.

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 found the funeral directors to be so helpful to us through a very challenging time. They were the first time we’d used these Funeral Directors so I was a bit anxious. However, they were professional throughout, talking to us respectfully and calmly in regards to what they offer in their service. Both directors we were involved with were patient yet meticulous. On the day itself, the funeral director was very thoughtful to what was a sad occasion taking us to the funeral service. He made sure that the service ran accordingly for the burial.

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 had a choice between Udens and another funeral director. I had known of family friends who had used Udens so decided to proceed with using their services. Udens were amazing. We used the Bexleyheath branch. Adam was patient, compassionate and very understanding. He was quick to respond to emails and given my busy family circumstances was able to work around me not being able to come into branch. On the day itself , the team arrived in a timely manner , they were professionally dressed, empathetic and very lovely. Jack and Mike who were involved in driving our cars were brilliant and although I did not get the names of the other drivers they were lovely too. The co-ordination within the church service and at the graveside were perfect. Even though, it was a sad time Udens made it simple and much easier.

Udens was the first funeral directors where someone answered a phone over the Festive Season, that was a relief in itself, to speak with a member of the team.We had some specific requests that were met with compassion and kindness, and everything was so well organised - bringing her home to the house the evening before - then the day of her funeral. Thank you again for your professionalism, care and compassion.Amy R. ★★★★★ 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.

All my communications with Nick, Gareth and Daryl were attentive, gentle and dignified as they guided me through and answered my many questions and my requests were never an issue; they took care of everything/nothing was a problem. The funeral itself was handled with utmost respect and care which I truly am thankful to Lee (the conductor) and his colleague displaying traditional salutes, what a lovely touch.  It is a truly difficult time mourning whilst having to sort formalities of a funeral that can be very overwhelming. You also want to choose a funeral directors that will look after your loved one and it was a huge point for me that i could pop in and view dad as many times in their chapel of rest (most competitors will charge extra for this).

Joanne, our celebrant, who officiated Dad’s service, was excellent and most helpful. Stanley (our conductor), the drivers and the pallbearers, looked immaculate, as were the beautiful cars. The day went perfectly, I cannot thank you all enough for your truly outstanding professionalism at Sidcup.Carol Brent (daughter)Luana F. ★★★★★ Hi all,W.uden & Sons did an excellent job. During this very sad time in our lives, everyone in the company we interacted with was extremely kind and made nothing difficult for us. Thanks to their help, we were able to say goodbye to our dear dad, husband, son, and brother with the honor he deserved. We all will face this moment one day, so if you need to lay a loved one to rest, W.uden & Sons comes highly recommended.Sam R. ★★★★★ We recently entrusted W. Uden & Sons, Eltham branch, with directing our amazing dad’s funeral, and they were truly outstanding. From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, helpful, and friendly during what was such a difficult time for us.Their communication was exceptional, particularly from Denice, who was nothing short of world-class. She is the loveliest, most approachable person, and her kindness and support made navigating this process so much easier. And when Denice wasn’t available, Ben treated us with the same exceptional care and respect alongside the most comforting smile (even when we were all full of tears and emotion).On the day, Jack and the team went above and beyond, showing so much care and attention to detail. The celebrant they chose, Jo Bamford, was the perfect choice for our dad. She was absolutely incredible and captured him so beautifully; she truly was a blessing.The whole team made time for our entire family, whether it was the multiple visits to the chapel of rest or addressing any of our concerns. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them.You never expect to have to plan a funeral unless it’s inevitable, but I can say with certainty that us Carpo’s will always return to W. Uden & Sons. They are, without question, the best in the business, and we can’t thank them enough for everything they did for us.Christian S. ★★★★★ First class service from start to finish. I cannot express how much we appreciated the support and guidance we received arranging Mum's funeral. We were well looked after by Spencer who was patient, knowledgeable, kind and respectful when arranging what would happen on the day. He respected our wishes and helped us to personalise the day, ensuring we could plan the day exactly as we wanted. We were informed of all the choices and the prices were very competitive. Spencer regularly contacted us to let us know everything was in hand and dealt with all the other parties involved on the day (florist, crematorium, preacher etc), making sure everything went to plan. We also received a call the night before from Lee, who asked if we had any concerns and confirmed the plans of the next day, this really helped to put our minds at ease. Lee expertly directed the proceedings on the day and the other staff were professional, friendly and looked very smart. We had the Bentley cars so Mum could arrive in style and they were spotless. We appreciate the support and guidance that we received from W.Uden & Sons. They took care of mum, the family and everything else involved in giving Mum a lovely send off, it couldn't have gone better. I rate them 10/10 in all departments and recommend their services, especially if like me, you want to have your requests for the day to be carried out respectfully and profesionally, but without the stress of making sure everything goes to plan yourself. Many of my friends and family commented on how nice and professional the team were on the day and how posh our cars were! This is a heart felt thanks to all at W. Uden & Sons Family Funeral Directors SidcupDavid A. ★★★★★ A first rate service with minimal fuss and maximum attention to detail. Highly recommendedFrancois N. ★★★★★ We received the warmest and most courteous service from W. Uden in Eltham after the death of my beloved wife, Bronwen. Denise, who was looking after us, helped us sorting out and organise everything around the funerals. Through her we were put in contact with the nicest, most empathic and diligent celebrant, Ms Christina Carty, and the ceremony was a true celebration of Bronwen, including a nice webcam which went to the friends and family of Bronwen in Australia and New Zealand. I was truly dreading all the events around the funerals, but with the help of my children and friends, as well as Uden staff, we celebrated Bronwen life the way she would have liked.karen S. ★★★★★ 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.

From the very beginning, Matthew took the time to explain every detail with care and was incredibly accommodating in answering all our questions. Our culture involves many specific customs and practices, but no request was ever too much. The team showed remarkable patience, especially with my mother, who tends to be quite anxious, and their kindness never wavered.

Their care and attention to detail from the first meeting to discuss arrangements, the liaison with the Celebrant and to the lowering of the coffin and transport home following the funeral was delivered with military precision. I cannot thank W Udens and sons enough for making a sad occasion memorable and a perfect send off for our loved ones.

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 teamSarah A. ★★★★★ I cannot express enough how grateful my family and I are for the incredible service we received from W. Uden & Sons Eltham, during such a difficult time of grieving our dad.Throughout the funeral planning process, Sarah's professionalism and compassion stood out. She took the time to thoroughly explain all the available options, patiently walking us through every detail and she ensured that all our wishes were executed perfectly on the day of the funeral. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our family’s needs and was committed to making sure everything was handled with the utmost care and respect.On the day of the service, Stanley and his team were outstanding. They worked with professionalism, patience, and respect, offering the kind of support that went beyond what we expected. They were particularly attentive to my mother, who has a bad leg. The driver helped her fasten her seatbelt and Stanley showed her immense kindness by holding her had to support her when walking. These little acts of kindness made such a difference. They treated my late father as if he were a member of their own family. The dignity and respect they showed him was beyond words. The team's appearance was immaculate, and everything was coordinated flawlessly, which contributed to the peaceful and dignified farewell we were hoping for.At such a challenging time, organising a funeral can easily become overwhelming. The care and service provided by Sarah, Stanley, and their team relieved any additional stress, allowing us to focus on grieving and honouring our dad.

We had no idea what to expect or the process involved when our loved one passed away but Uden & Sons were the most compassionate and helpful Funeral Directors we could have ever wished to find. I must make a special mention to Lee at Uden & Sons Biggin Hill as I was completely blown away by the care and kindness he showed towards us all. I think he genuinely is one of the most warm and comforting people I could have met during this saddest of times for our family.The most heartfelt thank you goes to Lee, you will never know how much your words and your presence gave me great strength and for that I will be always grateful to you.With the warmest of wishes to you all at Uden & Sons.Lucy F. ★★★★★ Where do I start! Absolutely amazing team, so kind and considerate from the very beginning. They are so understanding and go out of their way to make things easy and as stress free as possible (which must be so hard in their work). I would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone who has lost someone very close to them. I am very grateful for your kindness and consideration down to the detail on my Dad's police flag.Helen W. ★★★★★ The people who dealt with me and my partner were amazing every time we went to see my mum.On mum’s funeral day they brought mum home and treated her with such respect.Honestly they were so so kind and respectful about everything and nothing was too much for any of them.Sandra B. ★★★★★ Dealing with the death of a loved one is always difficult but Uden's are very caring and made the whole process as pain free as possible from arranging the funeral, getting the order of service printed and on the day of the funeral. Mum could not have been in better care. Nothing was too much trouble.Robert Q. ★★★★★ I simply cannot recommend Uden & Sons highly enough. Having chosen them for my mothers funeral arrangements in 2006, I returned to them upon my fathers passing last month. I dealt with Nigel at the Biggin Hill office, who could not have been more sympathetic and helpful. The Uden team that conducted the funeral were faultless in their professionalism, courtesy and respect. I received many comments from mourners about how well the funeral was handled.Sylvia B. ★★★★★ We had very recently, had occasion to use the services of W. Uden & Sons and cannot praise them highly enough for the caring and professional way that they conducted the funeral. At all times their attention to detail was second to none. From our initial visit with Nigel at the Biggin Hill branch to the actual day of the funeral we were made to feel that nothing was too much trouble. We were given the choice of which crematorium we would prefer to use and they advised as to the type of service whether religious or not. In our case we chose a non-religious service and Udens recommended a wonderful Celebrant, Kate who helped us through the whole process both before and during the service. Our loved one was at all times treated with dignity and the wellbeing of the family was always at the forefront of everything they did.We were given advice as to printing an order of service and also useful contacts for the photo tribute which was set to music.The vehicles were immaculate as were the liveried chauffeurs and the funeral director. I can honestly say that the care and compassion along with Uden’s professionalism helped enormously to make an incredibly sad day more bearable. Well done Udens.Deborah A. ★★★★★ Nigel, Spencer and the team were truly amazing. They were the epitome of respectful, gentle , kind, totally professional, well organised and readily available. They were also flexible.At a time of great sorrow and confusion they met every expectation and really helped us to arrange the perfect send off for our loved one.We would certainly recommend them.Winston B. ★★★★★ we were very impressed with the professionalism displayed by the staff at Southampton Way throughout the period that they looked after my cousin and on to the repatriation of his remains to Sierra Leone. I will recommend UDENS with confidence to anyone requiring the services of an undertakerNicholas B. ★★★★★ We used Udens for my mother's funeral some 15 years back and were impressed and delighted with the service then. Last month we chose Udens again for Papa's funeral. Once more the quiet assured style and precision came to the fore with the entire team, from first engagement to last, performing impeccably. Much impressed and grateful for the care that was given.Matty ★★★★★ 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. The team at Uden has been very available to support and execute against everything we needed during the 1 month our dad's body remained in their facilities until they managed his repatriation to West Africa. Everything was well taken care of and went smoothly. Thank you!Margaret B. ★★★★★ Uden's are a well-known and trusted funeral directorship in our area. Everyone we met treated us with compassion and sensitivity and willingness to help. Each person we met introduced themselves and explained what would happen which is very reassuring when grievong the lpss of a relative. Our Dutch relatives were really impressed by the way the day was conducted. Punctual, calm, well-dressed and respectful, even providing some tape to patch up a hole in the lining of my coat. I would recommend their services. Thank you.Bridget N. ★★★★★ 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.William H. ★★★★★ 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.Patrick H. ★★★★★ Uden's provided excellent understanding attention ,and service in Biggin Hill. Mr .Nigel Jones was extremely helpful, patient, and understanding throughout. Mr .Andrew Uden who led the Funeral and team were excellent. It was good that we were able to hold the Funeral Service at Westerham Hill Baptist Church led by the Pastor Kevin Tibble assisted by Martha Collins. All arrangements were closely co-ordinated with Biggin Hill Trades. The Order of Service printing by Think Pad, Catering by Little Mollies, Flowers by Lily of the Valley. All excellent and closely co-ordinated.THANKS to UDEN'S and you ALL.Sandra J. ★★★★★ 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.D W ★★★★★ 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.Lee ★★★★★ 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.Debbie L. ★★★★★ 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!Stewart G. ★★★★★ 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.susan P. ★★★★★ W.Uden and sons were fantastic.
