Interment of Ash Ceremonies

Interment is the term used for the burial of cremated remains.

Interment ceremonies – A modern approach to burial

Interment of ash ceremonies can be held following a cremation ceremony, alternatively they can be performed independently and be funeral itself

Why do we love them?

• Holding a ceremony around the interment of ashes can be a more cost-effective and very lovely option for the funeral.
• They create a meaningful place for you to anchor your grief, to visit and return to as and when you want or need
• With space at a premium in burial grounds interment of ash ceremonies create space for a very personal, meaningful farewell gathering for those who wish to be buried but space, time and money does not permit
• They provide physical connection and community which can hold and assist in the time of grief and journeys ahead

The importance of a place to return to

Having a designated place where you know your person is at rest can be profoundly supportive when living with loss. This place might be a cemetery or burial ground, or somewhere more personal and intimate.

A place to return to can offer comfort, continuity, and a sense of connection—something many people find essential as they move forward with their grief.

Creating a modern memorial

If you choose to bury ashes on private land, you may wish to mark the spot. This can be as simple or expressive as you like:

• a stone or sculpture
• a plant, shrub, or tree
• a natural marker that blends into the landscape

Creating a living memorial—something that grows, changes, and evolves over time—can be incredibly healing. It’s good for you, and good for the environment.

Caring for the planet, today and for future generations

Little is it known, cremated remains are toxic for the environment. The high sulphur content disrupts the natural process of the earth and the eco-system. When burying ashes, we strongly recommend using RTN soil. This nutrient-rich soil blend has been specially created to counteract the effects of cremated remains.

RTN soil feeds and nurtures your chosen living memorial, supporting surrounding flora and fauna while protecting the wider environment. It helps create a positive, restorative place to return to—one that honours your person whilst looking out for future generations.
