Bereave­ment is one of the toughest things we have to face. If you have suffered bereave­ment and want one of the clergy of Holy Trinity to con­duct the funer­al, please contact us as soon as possible.  You should also contact a local Funeral Dir­ector. One of their staff will advise you about all the arrange­ments that need to be made for the funeral to take place at Holy Trinity or at a crematorium. But it is essen­tial that arrange­ments are made in con­sulta­tion with the clergy at the earliest opportunity to ensure they are free to take the service.

Funer­als in Church

A Chris­tian funer­al is an occa­sion of sad­ness but also hope, because the Chris­tian faith prom­ises that all those who die as Christians will be raised with Jesus Christ. If you would like a funeral to take place at Holy Trinity, you should contact us and a local Funeral Director. A funeral at Holy Trinity may be followed by a committal at a crematorium or a burial in a cemetery or churchyard. The churchyard at Holy Trinity has been closed for many years, but it may be possible for cremated remains (ashes) to be interred at a later date in its Garden of Remembrance.

Funer­als at Crematoria

The clergy of Holy Trinity are available to con­duct a funer­al at a crem­at­orium for someone who has been resident in the parish or with a family connection with Holy Trinity. Contact with the church is usually through a Funeral Director or you may contact him yourself to make an enquiry.
