Burial Services at Oadby Cemetery
Our focus is on helping families arrange the funeral itself — not just explaining cemetery information. We can guide you through the options and bring the whole arrangement together.
New Grave Burials
For families arranging a new burial plot, we can help with the funeral service, practical arrangements and next steps around the cemetery process.
Existing Family Graves
Some families may wish to use an existing family grave for a further burial, subject to grave ownership, cemetery records and approval.
Graveside Services
A dignified service at the graveside with a minister, celebrant, family speaker, prayer, poem or quiet reflection.
Our role is to make the funeral feel calm, organised and personal.
We can arrange the service, hearse, bearers, music, readings, flowers, printed orders of service and support around the cemetery arrangements where appropriate.

Ashes interment at Oadby Cemetery
Interring Ashes in Oadby
Although this page is mainly focused on burial funerals, many families also ask us about interring ashes at Oadby Cemetery.
This may be after a cremation has recently taken place, or when ashes have been kept at home for some time. An ashes interment or scattering can provide a fixed place for family to visit and remember.
The original funeral does not need to have been arranged by Bay Tree Funerals. If you already have ashes at home, we can still help explain the next steps.
Ashes options may include:
- Interment of ashes in a family grave where permitted
- Interment of ash caskets within the Garden of Remembrance
- Scattering of ashes where permitted
- A short graveside or cemetery service
- Advice on memorials, plaques or inscriptions
