Myth: A direct cremation means you can’t say goodbye, because there isn’t a funeral service to attend at the crematorium.

Truth: With us, your local funeral director, you can say goodbye to your loved one in our Chapel of Rest. A few people can gather together to share a quiet moment or say a few words. We can play a special piece of music or place a treasured item into the coffin.

A direct cremation also means you can plan a personal memorial service later, or create jewellery or a keepsake with the ashes.

It’s your choice, we’ll support you every step of the way.
