4 INTRODUCTION When you meet with your Funeral Director to discuss the funeral arrangements he will ask if you have any specific wishes with regards to your loved one s cremated remains (ashes). We understand that this can be a difficult decision and one that you may wish to discuss in private with your family. We have designed this brochure to give an overview of the options available to you. Hopefully this will be of some help to you, and your Funeral Director is always available to offer any further guidance. AFTER THE FUNERAL Following the funeral there are a number of options available regarding your loved one s cremated remains (ashes). If you wish to collect your loved one s ashes from us, we would recommend contacting us 24-hours in advance. This will ensure that we have them ready for your collection. Please contact our office on Usually the ashes will be collected by the person that made the funeral arrangements (i.e. the client or next of kin). We are able to provide the ashes to another family member but only on instruction from the client / next of kin. Therefore if it will be another family member attending our premises please confirm these details when you contact us to arrange the collection. Our office staff are in attendance at our premises Monday Friday 9.00am 5.00pm and on Saturdays 9.30am 12.30pm. SCATTERING It is becoming increasingly popular to scatter the ashes of your loved one. Ashes can be strewn in the Garden of Remembrance at the crematorium and there is an option for family to attend if they wish. Alternatively, the ashes can be returned to the family for private scattering, perhaps in a favourite location or across water. SCATTERING OVERSEAS TAKING THE ASHES ABROAD If you wish to take your loved one s ashes abroad for scattering, please let us know. We can provide you with the necessary signed documentation to carry with you when you travel. Please note, some of the items shown in this brochure are made to order and although many are available within 3-5 working days, delivery times can vary, please ask your Funeral Director or a member of staff for further advice in this regard 4

19 PHIL IRONS WOODTURNER Phil has won numerous awards in national competitions and is regularly invited to teach and demonstrate his techniques nationally and at an international level. BESPOKE URNS AND KEEPSAKES These wooden ashes urns are truly special. All are individually crafted from salvaged timber by master woodturner Phil Irons. Best known for his vessels and hollow forms with their clear, beautiful shapes and flowing lines, Phil describes his hands as functional art. His knowledge and appreciation of English timbers was initially gained from working as a tree surgeon and forrester for several years. With no two pieces of wood ever being identical, the uniqueness of each urn develops through a process of being dried and hand turned over a number of days. Each urn has a different design that will never be repeated on another urn. A truly personal and individual product that is as special and unique as you. Prices available on request. 19
