What will I do with the ashes?

This decision need not be made immediately. The four main options are:-

• You can keep them at home or we can take care of the ashes for up to one year at our Funeral Home.
• They can be scattered at the Crematorium (usually quietly by the Crematorium staff or if preferred you can witness the scattering by prior appointment)
• You can scatter them in a place that is special or meaningful to you, such as the beach, forest, river or at sea
• They can be buried in a new grave, or an existing family grave.

Alternative options are:-

• A small amount of ashes can be taken to be made into a diamond which can then be set into a necklace or ring.
• You can purchase cremation jewellery that a small amount of ashes can be placed into.
• There is a company that can place the ashes into fireworks allowing you to organise a special farewell event.
• Or they can even send the ashes into space!
• There is a glassworks which specialises in which has a small amount of ashes added. They can provide glass pendant necklaces, paperweights, vases and many other products.
• We can provide display clocks that have a compartment in the back to display them discreetly.
• We can supply elegant garden sundials, pedistal planters and birdbaths that have a compartment for up to two sets of ashes.
