Local Refreshment
Memoria operates 1 hour time slots in order that a family and friends may have the facility to themselves during the course of a service. Therefore, we ask attendees of following the service to respect that family’s privacy and not enter the site until 10 minutes before the time of the service that they wish to attend.
However, we do appreciate that some mourners will have travelled a distance and may be early as a result of wanting to be on time. Therefore, we have listed locations offering refreshments close by. For details and directions please see below.
Funeral Planning and Arrangements
Guides to Religious and Non-Religious Funerals
While all religions observe some form of funeral rites, the way the service is ordered, body is prepared and details of tradition are engrained differ amongst even the most closest of beliefs. The funeral guide has published these guides for religious and non-religious funerals:
Making a Will
Surveys tell us that 6 out of 10 people haven’t made a Will. This may be because people can believe that if they are married, in a civil partnership or have a partner, then their “other half” will automatically get everything when they die. Unfortunately this may not be the case.
Making a Will is extremely important and is the only way that you can stipulate who gets what after your death. Equally, making A Will can ensure that any dependent children you leave behind are looked after by people you nominate and can live where you choose.
Memoria have identified the Legacy Alliance – a service which can offer a comprehensive professional Will drafting service to Memoria clients and their families, carried out by post email and phone.
Wills can be arranged from £160 plus VAT but in addition Memoria clients benefit from a 10% discount off normal prices. If you would like to know more about this service please click our dedicated link here…
