Cremations can take place with or without a traditional service. Cremations are normally held at a crematorium, however you may wish to hold the service at a place of worship first followed by a committal.
The type of service you have for a cremation is your choice and we are here to guide and support your wishes.
After the funeral service, you have a number of options as to how you would wish for the return of your loved ones ashes. We will guide you through all options. We do not charge for returning ashes.
