Floral Tributes
We welcome floral tributes. These tributes will be displayed on the day of the funeral and then are available to view in our grounds for seven days after.
Please contact the crematorium office if you wish the flowers to remain longer and we will see what can be arranged. Once removed from the display area the tributes are dismantled and the flowers composted. Where possible any remaining material is recycled.
Visitors may lay cut flowers on the lawns throughout the Garden of Remembrance but please be aware that these are removed by the staff once they have withered. We ask that you please first remove any wrapping so that these flowers can also be composted.
Flowers placed in the remembrance book room are also removed when withered, and are added to the compost area.
The crematorium is operated in accordance with the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management Charter for the Bereaved (pdf
