Whether it’s at a crematorium of their choice or burial, we can help you give a dignified farewell to your loved one, according to their wishes.
Burial
You may wish to plan a simple, traditional, funeral service in a location of your choice, combining a respectful and dignified tribute at the graveside in a particular churchyard or cemetery, or perhaps a themed burial with a more personalised farewell. Some families may decide upon a greener choice in a peaceful woodland setting creating simplicity and tranquility.
Our compassionate, expert team of funeral directors will carefully explain all the options available to you and help you create a funeral service that meets all your needs.
Cremation
Cremations can take place with or without a traditional funeral service. Like every aspect of a funeral, it’s a personal choice, based on the deceased’s wishes. The type of service you have at the cremation is your choice and we can guide you on your decisions. We have close links with crematoria across our area which means we can ensure everything is carried out according to those wishes.
After the cremation ceremony, you have a number of options as to how you would wish the committal of the ashes.
Scattering or Interment of Ashes
Many families choose a special place to scatter the ashes of their loved one. Whether you plan to do this at a local beauty spot, at a favourite venue, at the seaside, perhaps a major sports venue or maybe up a mountain, we can advise you on what permissions you might need, and what protocols to follow.
Alternatively, some families prefer the ashes to be scattered at a garden of remembrance, or to permanently inter them in a grave.
Forever Memories
Many people find it comforting to be able to keep a loved one close and modern memorial jewellery makes this possible.
