Remember your loved one with a memorial in the Beautiful Birches Gardens
Our gardens are open 7 days a week; 365 days a year for you to visit and spend time remembering your loved one. We offer a variety of memorials throughout the grounds. If you wish to visit us for a tour and discussion of your options, please contact us to make an appointment to visit.
In common with all crematoria, memorials are provided for a fixed number of years (between 5 and 20). At the end of the lease, the memorial can either be renewed for another period, or you can choose to not renew. Any remains will not be disturbed but any plaque or stone may be removed.
Bespoke memorials can be provided, please contact us to discuss designs and prices.
A memorial commemoration can be arranged to meet your needs. We can accommodate gatherings while ashes are scattered or interred or a memorial is placed in the gardens. You can even choose to have tea and coffee before or afterwards and should you wish, you can say a few words or have a short service at the time.
