Both cemeteries offer a tranquil setting with many mature trees and flower beds and natural havens for wildlife. There are areas set aside for the interment of coffins and cremated remains and separate areas for the burial of babies and young children. There is a chapel for services of any denomination.
We are committed to:
- providing you with an efficient and caring service which best meets your personal needs;
- improving our service by listening to your views and sympathetically reviewing your needs;
- ensuring that friendly and well trained staff are available to help and advise you;
- ensuring that our cemeteries provide a choice of burial and are attractive, safe and well maintained; and
- assisting your chosen funeral director to provide a high quality service or advise you how to arrange the burial yourself.
The Cemeteries Strategy has now been completed and presented to Council.
