At the conclusion of the funeral service, the coffin will either descend from sight or will be concealed by a curtain closing, depending on which crematorium you are using.  The funeral director will show you out of the chapel where you will then have the opportunity to chat with relatives and friends and view the floral tributes, before going home or to a venue for refreshments.

There are many myths surrounding cremation and if you are worried about any aspect, please discuss your concerns with us.  The coffin does not enter the cremator straight away but usually within about half an hour of the service.  Each cremation is carried out individually and according to a strict Code of Cremation Conduct.  The fear that you may not get the right ashes is unfounded.  Thorough procedures mean that cremated remains are always kept separately and can always be identified.
