Natural Burials, Talk by Jeremy Russel, part of The Final Journey Project

More and more people decide on a natural burial and a family or friend led ceremony. A traditional funeral is no longer suitable for everyone and people are looking for customised alternatives.

A gentle alternative

Unhurried, tranquil, and private, the burial ground offers a gentle alternative to a traditional cemetery or crematorium. There is space and time to create your own bespoke ceremony within the ethos of the natural burial ground.

Professional funeral directors are there to support you and help you achieve what you want to do. A good funeral director will provide the help and support you need when you need it. If you wish to do as much as you can yourselves, there is no legal requirement in the UK to use a funeral director.

Both family-organised funerals and professional services are welcome. We don’t provide funeral services ourselves but do offer a lot of advice and suggestions.
