Father’s Day at Torbay Crematorium

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

The site is opening its chapel on Saturday 18 June for a special Father’s Day Moment of Reflection between 10am and 12noon.

Visitors will be able to collect a packet of wild flower seeds which they can sow in memory of their loved ones at a place of their choice.

Torbay 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.

Regional Site Manager Kevin Davies 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.”

For those who wish to remember their loved ones on Father’s Day itself, the picturesque, peaceful grounds of Torbay Cemetery & Crematorium will be open as usual on Sunday 19 June.
