Remembering Mothers at Babworth Crematorium

Babworth Crematorium will be remembering mothers next month as local families are invited to pay tribute to their maternal loved ones.

Ahead of Mother’s Day local people are being invited to visit the crematorium’s chapel on Friday 17 March between 3.30pm and 5pm where they will be able to light a candle and place a wooden heart on a commemorative tree in memory of those they have lost.

Reflective music will be played in the chapel, enabling visitors to have some moments of contemplation.

The commemorative tree will then be moved into the waiting room at the crematorium where it will be on display for the following two weeks, until 1 April.

Babworth 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, peaceful places for people to visit and reflect.

Amanda Carr, Site Manager at Babworth Crematorium, said: “Mother’s Day can be a particularly poignant time for those who have lost their mum or mother-figure, or for mothers who have been bereaved of a child.

“We are inviting local families to visit us during this period to have a moment of reflection and contemplation in our chapel.

“We hope that visiting us will bring comfort to anyone who needs it during this special time of the year.“
