The Deceased in our Care

The deceased in our care - Visiting the deceased

 

Once in our care, the deceased will remain within a special mortuary area until the family have arranged the funeral, chosen a coffin, and provided the clothing. When the family have made these decisions, the deceased will be dressed and laid in the coffin by trained members of staff. Visitations may then take place at our Chapel of Rest.

Our Chapels of Rest are suitable for all faiths, and some can be used for private services if desired. Restrictions on visitation lie solely with the family’s discretion.
