Cremations

Crematoriums

Cremation is more popular and often much cheaper than a burial. The service and the committal are normally held in the all denominational chapel. Theses services are held every 30 minutes, unless an additional time is requested. A cremation can be just as traditional as a burial. A church service can precede the commitial service at the crematorium.

Ashes

You will need to come to a decision of the final deposition of the ashes. The cremated remains may be scattered in the crematorium gardens, buried by some form of memorial or taken away for dispersal elsewhere. If this decision cannot be made now the ashes may be placed on temporary deposit until after the funeral.

After the cremation has taken place it is usually possible for a fitting memorial to be arranged. However, different crematoria vary in what they offer therefore the choice available does not alter significantly.

The crematoria have specialist staff/ memorial councilors who will talk you through the choices available and help you with your decision.
