Advanced Wishes
This is a free service, which everyone is welcome to use.
Unfortunately, lots of people don’t leave details of their funeral wishes. If you do not want to commit to a funeral plan but would like your wishes to be recorded please complete the following form. At Manson and MacBeath we respect everyone’s personal wishes for their funeral, we are happy to help guide you to make it easier having this conversation.
If you would like your wishes to be recorded, please complete the following form. Once you have completed this form we will keep your details on file for safekeeping, we will also send you a copy and if you wish we can send a copy to your executor, next of kin or a close family member or friend who will be responsible for finalising your funeral arrangements.
Why Create Advanced Wishes ?
If you record your funeral wishes in advance, it can really help your loved ones. Specifying your funeral wishes will help to alleviate some of the worries and uncertainty for family and friends. Funeral wishes involve making plans and provisions for your own funeral.
YOUR FUNERAL, YOUR WAY.
It means that your family won’t need to second-guess what you would have wanted. The death of a loved one can be an emotional and difficult time and if some consideration has been given to this in advance, it can help to reduce the emotional burden on your family. Trying to plan a funeral for a deceased relative or friend without any instructions can be very stressful. This is why we have created this feature to allow you to record your wishes in advance.
If you require any help or need some additional support with this please call our funeral home on 01397 701110.
(This is currently operating via a downloadable form format, however, in the next couple of weeks this will become a digital online form to make things even easier for you to use)
WOODLAND BURIALS
Unhurried, tranquil and private, it offers something gentler. A place of escape, away from it all. The peace and beauty of the countryside are special, whatever the season. It allows you time and space to focus your mind, a place to reflect on life, love and loss.
Delliefure Natural Burial Ground at Grantown on Spey
A natural burial ground offers a beautiful and sustainable alternative to traditional cemeteries and crematoriums. You have the option of full burial or ashes burial, but there is no headstone or grave marker. Everything used is natural and biodegradable. That means no embalming or plastics and coffins, urns and flower arrangements are all biodegradable. If these can be sourced locally, that’s even better. The burial ground gives you freedom to remember the people you love in a way that feels personal. Whether you want a traditional funeral, or something a little different, we can inspire, support and guide you to help organise the day.
