After the cremation

Following a cremation, you can choose to scatter the cremated remains within the borough, such as a crematorium's garden of remembrance. If you have an existing family grave within one of our cemeteries, this can be used  to provide a burial area for cremated remains. Alternatively, you can purchase a new grave which can be marked with a memorial, and our cemeteries can provide some cremation options to help you to make your choice.

Whatever your choice, you may wish to have a Minister present to take a short service. If you prefer not to have a formal service, you can look at our cremated remains service sheet(pdf, 32KB) and adapt it for your own use.
