Interment of ashes provides an opportunity to create a specific final resting place for a loved one where the ashes will be placed below ground and the plot will be marked by a memorial of your choosing.

Interment can be attended by family members or performed without their presence. Our colleagues are always available to provide support and assistance whilst ensuring utmost care, respect and dignity, regardless of the chosen option.

Unfortunately, we are unable to inter ashes at Aylesbury Vale and New Forest Crematoria, however, our experienced colleagues will guide you through alternative options.

Above ground memorials will safely hold loved one’s ashes inside them without needing to inter them below ground.

Because of their above ground position, they offer more visual presence in a given space.

Placing of the ashes inside an above ground memorial can be performed in the presence of the bereaved family members or without. Our colleagues will be on hand to assist with either option and carry out all duties with the highest level of care, respect and dignity.

All of our crematoria have dedicated communal and private scattering areas available.

Even if a service or cremation of a loved one did not take place at one of our crematoria, we can still assist with the scattering of their ashes on our grounds.

The scattering can be performed in the presence of family members or without their attendance. Our colleagues will be able to assist regardless of the selected option and carry out this duty with utmost respect, care and dignity.

Ash scattering in a communal area is performed free of charge if the cremation service took place at our crematorium.
