Amongst the landscaped grounds you'll find a tranquil memorial garden for contemplation and reflection, while the state-of-the-art crematoria offers a sophisticated media system with access to a fantastic catalogue of music, allowing you to create a truly personal service.
Our Halesowen funeral services are also available to all those in the surrounding areas and across mainland UK. Wherever you are, you can feel reassured that your loved ones will be professionally and compassionately looked after.
There are many meaningful locations in and around Halesowen for scattering ashes once they have been hand-delivered back.
However, please note before you do so that you must gain permission from the landowner or local authority first.
Leasowes Park and Lickey Hills Country Park are two beautiful public parks in Halesowen with scenic landscapes and gardens, which both offer a peaceful and tranquil setting for scattering ashes, surrounded by nature and your nearest and dearest.
Halesowen is just beside the beginning of the Dudley No 2 Canal, near to where Coombeswood Canal Trust is situated. For those who loved being by the water, the canal is a peaceful and calm setting to scatter ashes.
Ashes can also be scattered at a place that meant a lot to your loved one like Halesowen Cricket Club or Halesowen Athletic & Cycling Club for those who were big into their sports within the local community.
With a direct cremation, you have the freedom to arrange a personal memorial service of your choosing in your own time. Places in and around Halesowen that may be suited to your memorial service include church halls, village or town halls, sports or social clubs, pubs, restaurants or hotels.
Benjamins in Halesowen is a fantastic place to host a memorial service which offers two rooms that can accommodate up to 100 guests. For those looking for something more upbeat, barbecues and hog roasts can be used on the large patio and even a band or DJ can be hired to perform on the stage in the Cornbow Room.
For those looking for something a bit more intimate than Benjamins, a cosy memorial service at the Hawne Tavern, a backstreet locals pub, may be perfect. The venue may have been meaningful to your loved one, and is a great place for beer and cider lovers.
Holding the memorial service in your own home has the benefit of being convenient, saving money and providing the perfect backdrop for reminiscing about the happy memories you shared with your loved one. You can ease the pressure of organising by asking family and friends to chip in.
We offer the highest level of support, but don't just take our word for it. Below are recent reviews from customers who bought a funeral with us.
Everything is done with huge care, respect and real reverence. I saw the service Distinct Cremations provide and I was both moved and impressed.
