Father’s Day at Westerleigh Crematorium

Westerleigh Cemetery & Crematorium, near Bristol, is inviting families to visit and commemorate the lives of their fathers and father figures.

It is hosting a special Father’s Day Service of Remembrance on Sunday 19 June at 11am in its Woodland Chapel.

Light refreshments will be provided after the service.

The site’s own Willow Tree Café will also be open on Father’s Day between 10am and 2pm.

The crematorium’s picturesque, peaceful, grounds will be open, as usual, throughout the day for those who want some quiet reflection and remembrance.

Westerleigh Crematorium is part of Westerleigh Group, the UK’s largest owner and operator of crematoria and cemeteries, with 37 sites in England, Scotland, and Wales, all set within beautifully landscaped gardens of remembrance which provide pleasant, tranquil places for people to visit and reflect.

Site Manager Shaun Chapman-Young said: “Father’s Day can be a particularly poignant time for those who have lost their father or father figure.

“Every year, we welcome many families to our grounds who come to lay flowers and commemorate their loved ones around Father’s Day.

“We hope that families will find comfort in their visit to us again this year.”
