Garden of Remembrance

In general all floral tributes which are brought to the Crematorium by the funeral cortege will be placed on the Garden of Remembrance. Areas of the lawn are allocated for each day of the week as indicated by signs on the Garden.

Floral Tributes are removed from the Garden as follows:

Flowers from funerals on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday are removed on the following Monday morning.

Flowers from funerals on Thursday, Friday and Saturday are removed on the following Thursday morning.

This arrangement allows the tributes to be displayed for at least 5 days as recommended by the Federation of Cremation Authorities.

You may remove your flowers from the Garden prior to disposal however it is advisable to notify the Crematorium Staff before you do so.
