Cremated Remains, Their Final Resting Place

The choice of a final resting place for cremated remains is very important and one which should not be rushed into. The first decision is whether to have them scattered or interred. If scattering is preferred then this can be done either at the crematorium where the service took place or one where other family ashes have been scattered. Some cemeteries and churchyards have Gardens of Remembrance that can be used as can areas of some Natural Burial Grounds or 'Green' cemeteries.

Alternatively, some families decide to collect their loved ones ashes from ourselves and keep them with them at home or take them to somewhere special to be laid to rest. Should you prefer to have the ashes buried then most town cemeteries have specific areas for cremated remains burials. Existing family graves in churchyards or cemeteries can also be used.
