Ash Scattering Ceremonies

An ash scattering ceremony can be a deeply personal and customised experience. The bereaved family can choose a location that is meaningful to them - for example, a place they used to go for their family holidays, or a family grave. The ceremony itself can be flexible too, with poems/readings and music that suit the bereaved, their life and the family left behind.

These ceremonies can play an important role in the grief process, bringing full circle to the bereavement. It’s a way of giving the person back to nature and releasing them from the urn as a way of ‘letting go’. It’s a poignant way for the family to say a final goodbye.

I will work closely with you to create and deliver a truly personal ceremony which will be delivered at a location of your choice. This could be a park, landmark, family property or somewhere of significance for the deceased. This creates a place for you to visit and remember your loved one whenever you wish to feel close to them. The ceremony may contain anything that is appropriate to honour the life of the person, such as poems, stories, readings or songs. Family members or friends are welcome to contribute and say their final farewells.
