Dear Rob, Kym, Nicola
I just want to say a huge thankyou to you and all of your team. I have seen for the first time this week my late husbands bench I purchased from yourselves, it is superb!
It has just been positioned at the Breadsall Priory golf course and will be well used.

Dear Nicola,
I just wanted to say thanks ever so much for the memorial bench that you built and delivered for me.
I went to visit it this week with my daughters, where it has been installed in Anglesey and we were so pleased with both the quality and look of the bench, it’s just want we wanted and a really fitting tribute to my late husband. The plaque that you added to it, to my specifications is also absolutely perfect.
I have also been so impressed with the service provided by TDP, and how responsive the company has been to my requests and queries about the order. It was all dealt with in a really professional and efficient way. Everyone I spoke to was friendly, courteous and knew what they were talking about, yourself included.
I have no hesitation in recommending your company to others and indeed have already done so.

Dear Nicola
The bench arrived this morning and has now been set up in the designated space. It looks great and I’m sure will be enjoyed by many residents of and visitors to Soulton. Mr Tunnell, who has been doing the paperwork and communications with you since I handed over to him, congratulated me on ‘landing on an excellent and very professional and helpful company’! I don’t know how I found you on Google but I’m glad I did and will recommend you to any other potential bench-users I come across.
With best wishes, and my thanks.

Hello Michelle,
I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge “Thank You” to everyone at your company who was involved with processing my order, making the memorial bench and delivering it to me.
Its now in place at the recreation ground in the village my mother had lived in for over 35 years, it looks amazing and is of such high quality I could not have been happier, I am so pleased I chose your company.
Everyone who has seen it and sat on it so far is amazed and very impressed by the standard of work and how sturdy it really is. Even the soft ground anchor kit was well made and substantial.
Thank you all so much.
Kind regards,
Lydia

Dear Nicola,
The bench we ordered is to commemorate my daughter who died from cancer. It was safely delivered on Friday. It is beautiful. Thank you and your company very much.
I enclose 2 more photos of the bench and a little story.
We had a little memorial gathering of our family on Sunday and I laid some flowers on the bench. On Monday I had to pass through Brill village so I stopped for a brief sit on the bench. Someone else had laid a posy of flowers there too. No idea who it was from.
Ian K –
Ian works with the ‘Breath of fresh air’ Charity and ordered two 1.8 Dales and two Ipstone planters for the courtyard at Glenfield Hospital.
Thank you for all your help in getting them done and dispatched for delivery today. Once the planters are planted, we will take more photos and send them.
We are really pleased with them as were the nursing staff who will benefit from somewhere to sit and relax also a place for patients and their families.
Shirley H. –
Thank you so much for all your help and especially the ladies today who helped regarding delivery.
The bench itself is just what we wanted and we are impressed with the quality.
Unfortunately it was raining but I have enclosed a photo with my daughter.
This is so special for us to remember my husband.
Thanks
Shirley

Thank you so much.

Thank you again to all at your team.

Emily –
Dear Nicola and everyone else who helped/communicated with me over with this – Anne, Michelle, Lindsey and Rob,
I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for the bench and all the organisation around delivery. You were all so patient and helpful at every stage. The delivery person was great and so helpful too.
We couldn’t be more happy with the bench and the plaque – it looks perfect as the replacement for the bench which had been there for 37 years. Let’s hope it might outlast that one – it seems very resilient and less likely to be washed out to sea (that happened, 5 years ago, to the last one but it was found 60 miles up the coast and returned).
Here are a couple of pictures from Port Isaac – I imagine you don’t always see your benches in their destinations spots…
Many thanks again,
Emily
Ian H. –
Good morning TDP
I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all you did to get my wife’s memorial bench to me in super fast time and amazing customer service.
We raised £2400 on the day for our local cancer charity and thank you all for playing your part, my daughter, son and I are truly grateful.
Kind regards
Ian

Hello Anne
Just a line to thank you all at TDP for the manufacture and shipping of the very attractive bench which was delivered to Tayvallich, Argyll, yesterday.
This is in memory of my late wife and is the second TDP bench at this remote location.
The delivery driver was incredibly helpful, including unwrapping the bench and helping to position it. He had phoned me the previous Friday to confirm details too.
Bench much admired by all the family.
Best regards

Evening Kym
I just wanted to let you know that we are overjoyed with our bench. Mum said she was quite choked. Perhaps we will be back in touch to order another for our village.
Thank you for all your time and effort to get the inscription just perfect.
Best wishes
Lesley
Good Morning Lesley,
I hope you are well and I’m so glad you all like it – it is definitely worth taking the time to make sure the inscription is right, as I know how much this can mean and I’m glad I was able to help 😊
Lisa F. –
Huge thank you- bench delivered today and positioned on my chosen site on golf course- 15th tee- what a view!
I will be spending many moments sitting here, and so will our daughters. I’m thrilled to bits with it – and so happy it won’t start looking neglected like wooden benches too- this bench deserves all the love.
I cant thank you enough for your support during the ordering process
Wishing you all a peaceful Christmas
Lisa
Good Morning Lisa,
That’s great news and the view is beautiful 😊
I hope you will all have many happy moments sat there taking in that stunning view (dodging golf balls!)
I’m also glad we could help and we love to see where our benches find a home.
Kym, TDP
Jennifer R. –
Dear Kym,
I just wanted to send a thank you for the lovely memorial bench you provided for my aunt on the IOW.
It was much admired by many people at her memorial service on 20th November. It is in a lovely position in the churchyard with a view overlooking the river Medina, a view that she loved, and a church where she spent many hours during her lifetime. I have attached some photos so that you can see the lovely spot.
I would also like to say that I have been very impressed by the friendliness, helpfulness and professionalism of everyone I have spoken to in your company and would recommend you to anyone.
Regards
Jennifer

Just wanted to send a big Thank you to everyone involved in the making and for the smooth delivery of our bench.
It has now been installed, and although it was an emotional day, we are so pleased to have a beautiful place and a comfortable seat to remember our loved one.

Once again cannot thank you all enough in this matter
Kind regards

Delivered a while ago now the bench and planter are fantastic, but with covid restrictions we have only just set up our bench.
We cannot thank you enough for such a sterling job on something that was so personalised and specific.

Very pleased with our 1200 Dale Bench with the brass plaque. It is now located in our local churchyard.
Charlotte Turpie –
Just wanted to say a huge thank you to all at TDP, especially Alison and Anne.
We ordered the Dale Bench as a memorial for our late parents and they made the whole experience so easy for us.
The bench is installed on the plot in the village where we grew up. Thanks to the team we were able to have it delivered in time for the 1 year anniversary of our Dad passing away.
Thank you so much!
