Father’s Day at New Southgate Crematorium

Westerleigh Group’s New Southgate Cemetery & Crematorium is inviting families to visit and commemorate the lives of their fathers and father figures.

The site is hosting a special Father’s Day Moment of Reflection in its chapel on Friday 17 June between 3pm and 5pm.

Visitors will be able to light a candle in memory of their loved ones. Light refreshments will be provided.

New Southgate Cemetery & 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 Vicki Crabb 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.”

Visitors will also be able to make donations to Huntington’s Disease Association, Westerleigh Group’s corporate charity partner for 2022.

For those who still wish to pay tribute to their loved ones on Father’s Day itself, the grounds of New Southgate Cemetery & Crematorium will be open as usual on Sunday 19 June.
