Woodland Burial

You may wish to consider alternatives to a traditional burial, such as a woodland burial.

Woodland burials usually take place in dedicated sites where family and friends can visit and enjoy calm, peace and unspoilt nature. While lots of people may choose to complement their woodland burial with other environmentally-friendly funeral options, you can choose to have any type of ceremony that you wish.

With a woodland burial, there are usually no burial plots, headstones or monuments, although different sites will have different rules and many allow wooden markers. There is also less risk of the grave being disturbed as most plots have permanent leases.

If you choose to have a woodland burial, you will have the option of full interment, or interment of ashes after cremation. Whichever you decide, both you and your loved ones will benefit from the calm and tranquillity of a woodland burial site.

For more information about woodland burials, or to discuss a woodland burial as part of a pre-paid funeral plan, please contact your local funeral director today.
