Each urn has been expertly crafted with a chamber suitable for adult ashes a meaningful tribute for those who felt closest to nature.

We also offer keepsake urns (8cm), designed to hold a small, precious amount of cremated remains. A keepsake allows you to keep a lasting memory close by, a gentle reminder of love that never fades.

These unique urns are available for £175.

Last week, we had the honour of holding a truly personal and beautiful funeral service in our Oaklands Chapel of Rest for our dear friend, Tony.

Tony was a true gentleman, kind, warm, quietly funny, and so deeply loved by all who knew him. We will miss his visits, his wonderful stories, and his gentle presence more than words can say. It has been a privilege to say goodbye in a way that reflected the lovely man he was.

Though he will be greatly missed, he will always be remembered with fondness and a smile.

Rest in Peace, Tony 🤍

A heartfelt thank you to Hedge Rose for the beautiful, one-of-a-kind vegetable tribute. We are certain Tony would have been absolutely over the moon with it! 🥦🥕🥬🥔🫛
