Creating a lasting memory

Many people get comfort from having a memorial for the person who has died, giving them a place to visit to remember them.

Memorials for burial

You may want to think of a memorial gravestone. If it is a family grave, you may want to have a new inscription, or replace the memorial if it is damaged.

Different cemeteries have different rules about when a gravestone may be put up and may insist on waiting at least six months for the ground to settle before the stone can be put in place. We can help you and we have a range of memorials we can show you.

Memorials for cremation

There is often a range of memorials available at the local crematorium’s garden of remembrance. You may choose to have the ashes buried in a churchyard or cemetery. Some people scatter or bury their loved one’s ashes in a particular spot in the garden or a place they loved, or even on football pitches or at sea.

If you don’t own the place where you want the ashes to be scattered, you will need permission from the landowner or relevant authority.

We have a number of different urns or ashes caskets for you to keep the ashes in at home.

If you would like to speak to us about memorials, please contact your nearest Dignity Funeral Director or telephone 08000 344 6489 and we’ll put you in touch.
