Last week, we were asked an important question: “What happens when we arrive at the crematorium?”
To help provide clarity and reassurance, we visited Lichfield and District Crematorium in Fradley to create an informative video guide for families and those attending a service.
In this short 5-minute video, we gently walk you through what to expect when the cortège arrives, including:
• Where the congregation can gather and wait
• The facilities available at the crematorium
• How the service room is arranged and where you will be seated
• The option of having the curtains open or closed
• And what happens throughout the service
Our aim is to help answer your questions and provide a sense of comfort during what can feel like an unfamiliar experience.
We hope this video offers guidance and reassurance when you need it most.
