Community open day at West Wiltshire Crematorium
West Wiltshire Crematorium is looking forward to welcoming visitors to a community open day on Saturday 4 October.
An invitation is open to anyone to visit between 10am and 2pm, when they will be able to tour the beautiful memorial gardens and the crematorium’s comfortable chapel.
Visitors will also have an opportunity to take a tour of the crematory, if they wish and they will be able to meet West Wiltshire Crematorium’s friendly and supportive team.
West Wiltshire Crematorium is part of Westerleigh Group, one of the UK’s largest independent owners and operators of crematoria and cemeteries, with 42 sites in England, Scotland and Wales, and which is trusted by more families than any other provider to deliver funerals for their loved ones.
All of Westerleigh's locations are set within beautifully landscaped gardens of remembrance which provide peaceful places for people to visit and reflect, while benefitting from exceptional care and support from its teams.
Manager Ben Edwards said: “We held a successful open day in May which proved very popular so we thought we would do another, and give people who didn’t have the chance to visit us in May another opportunity to discover everything we have to offer.
“Visitors will be able to find out first-hand about the exceptional care with which we serve the community and their loved ones.
“They will be able to learn about the range of farewell services we offer, the technology we use and how we can make every funeral uniquely personal.
“They will also be able to discover how we can support the bereaved in helping them to remember their loved ones, through a wide range of memorialisation options.”
Those who attend the open day can also place a card or message to loved ones in the crematorium’s memorial post box, as well spend some quiet time in the landscaped grounds for reflection and remembrance.
Ben added: “We will also be able to tell visitors about the work we do in the local community and the many local charities and organisations we support.
“Everyone is welcome, and we look forward to meeting local families on 4 October.”
