January, 2025.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam and her team are absolutely amazing, from beginning to end they made the process a lot easier( it's not a situation that can be considered easy) but something that could be dealt with. Every step was explained and often explained again so we knew what was happening. The care from her team was exemplary, honestly it was so nice to have people around that could support us when we were trying to hold ourselves together. This business is a family one and it shows. Everything is broken down and explained so that you can make the best decisions at the time regarding what you would like to do. She is easily contacted and is always polite and supportive.

Are you looking for a crematorium in South Leicestershire?
South Leicestershire crematorium is a family-owned crematorium and Garden of Remembrance in the peaceful countryside of Countesthorpe. It was opened in 2015, and they can cater to any religious denominations as well as non-religious funeral services and celebrations of life. They offer 1 hour long services but longer times can be arranged on request. The chapel can seat 100 people, but the area can be extended to accommodate up to 200; the service can be piped outside for up to 400 attendees. Music can be chosen from their Wesley Media System, which also allows live streaming of services if desired by the family or friends attending. Services are professional yet feminine with an emphasis on comfortability at this time of loss for families who have lost loved ones.
South Leicestershire Memorial also provides specialist services for Hindu and Sikh funerals; cremations can be witnessed through a glass wall and 2-hour services for open coffins can also be arranged. The chapel features the relevant symbols and prayer books for funerals in these faiths and the courtyard is also available for a second Uthamnu service.
The memorial park provides a wide range of options for commemoration, from traditional headstones, natural burial of ashes, and memorial benches to remembrance roses. Memorial plaques and vases can also be installed in the park and the name of your loved one can be entered in the Book of Remembrance.
Attended or unattended scattering of ashes can be arranged, and aluminium urns and keepsakes, with the option of a laser-engraved image of your loved one, can be purchased.
