After the cremation process is complete, you will collect the ashes but this is not necessarily where things end.

You can decide to simply keep these with you at home, maybe in a pretty urn, or you may wish to scatter them somewhere special or meaningful. Alternatively, they can be placed or buried somewhere permanently, known as interment.

I can guide you through the process and help to plan and deliver a ceremony if you’d like to do that.

For example, you may like to mark the day you receive the ashes with a short ceremony surrounded by friends and family at home. For the scattering of ashes, you may wish to have a ceremony at your chosen location (with the permission of the land owner), or a ceremony at a burial plot or a natural burial ground if you choose interment.

With direct cremations becoming more popular, the receiving of the ashes is the perfect time to hold a more extensive funeral, memorial, or Celebration of Life, so there are many options available. Get in touch to chat it through further.
