Both services generally close their doors on bank holidays.
However, Co-op Funeralcare homes offer a 24 hour central care team that can be contacted by phone or their website.
Co-op’s incredible journey
Co-op’s roots can be traced all the way back to 1844 with the Rochdale Society of Equitable Pioneers.
Throughout the years, they have grown to become one of the UK’s leading consumer co-operatives.
A consumer co-operative is an enterprise fully owned by its members, unlike a traditional business.
As of December 2024, the brand has its headquarters in One Angel Square in Manchester.
The building is one of the most sustainable large buildings in Europe, thanks to its bio-diesel cogeneration plant which uses rapeseed oil to provide heat and electricity.
