A word from our guests
Thoughtful & Beautiful
Thank you for the thoughtful and beautifully organised trip today to spread the ashes of a most beloved father, husband and uncle. Your knowledge of the Hindu way, greeting us all so warmly yet discretely meant a lot. The chai and egg free biscuits were a lovely touch. You helped make a very hard day a beautiful send off for him. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, The L and D families
Excellent Customer Service
We booked Sikh ashes scattering Ceremony for my mum/grandmother today. We just want to thank Fiona for a excellent costumer service she really made us feel comfortable and really took care of us. The prayers on the boat was beautiful and soothing. Fiona really went out her way to make my family feel at ease. We can’t thank you enough Fiona. X
Extremely Friendly
We used Bancroft Cruisers to scatter my partner’s mother’s ashes, and I would heartily recommend them for this service. The staff, in particular Fiona, were extremely friendly, and very knowledgeable on traditional Sikh ceremonies appropriate for a scattering. The music and hymns provided via the sound system were very fitting, and they made sure to explain the hymns chosen to those of the group who aren’t Sikh, so they could appreciate the ceremony properly. Refreshments were provided, including homemade spiced tea, which was lovely. The staff had even made a small diya for the ceremony, as it was also Diwali when we did the scattering. This extra touch was extremely appreciated. The boat cruise was great too – we went down the river to a location just outside of Stratford, and the route was very scenic (even if the weather was a bit gloomy!). The spot at which we scattered the ashes was very tranquil, and the side of the river could be reached via footpath, if we wanted to visit the site again on foot. Thank you Fiona and Co. My partner sends her well wishes.
