Cremation

Cremation can be combined with a funeral service beforehand, or a memorial service following the committal. However many people opt to hold the entire funeral at the Crematorium. Following the cremation, the ashes will be returned to you in order to inter them or scatter them in accordance with the wishes of the person that has died. We can assist in this decision. If you do not wish for the ashes to be returned to you, then arrangements can be made for interment or scattering in the grounds of the Crematorium

Burial

Burial is sometimes seen as an 'expensive choice' given the shortage of space in built up areas, burial remains a favoured option by many. Funeral services can take place prior to committal at the graveside, or a memorial service can be held immediately following - dependant on your wishes.

Alternatives

There are an increasing number of options available including a variety of vehicle forms, to woodland burials conducted with the environment in mind, please view our page on Alternatives for more details.
