The site offers funeral, burial and cremation services and includes a dedicated Garden of Remembrance for cremated remains, giving loved ones a tranquil space to pause, reflect and remember.
The chapel offers a warm and dignified environment, with seating for up to 100 guests and the flexibility to welcome larger gatherings when required. It is suitable for cremation, burial and memorial services, allowing families to create a meaningful tribute in a respectful setting.
Inside, the chapel is well equipped to support personal and individual services. Facilities include a hearing loop, modern music systems with the option of live organ accompaniment, webcam streaming for those unable to attend in person, and screens for photo or visual tributes.
Whether the service is guided by faith or is entirely non-religious, it remains a deeply personal moment for family and friends. Waveney Memorial Park and Crematorium is committed to ensuring each farewell is handled with compassion, dignity and thoughtful care.
Services are arranged in one-hour time slots, providing time for arrival, the ceremony itself and a moment afterwards to thank guests and say final goodbyes. Where needed, service times can be extended upon request, and services may also be arranged outside standard hours, including weekends, subject to availability.
Whether you need to arrange a funeral today for a loved one or you’re planning your own funeral in advance, we’re here to help you create a meaningful farewell.
If someone has died, we’ll take care of all the arrangements as quickly as needed, supporting you to create a fitting send-off with or without a service while looking after your loved one with the utmost respect.
If you’re planning ahead, our prepaid funeral plans allow you to arrange and pay for your funeral in advance, ensuring your wishes are known, costs are covered, and everything is taken care of for your family.
From the first call to the day of the funeral and beyond, you’ll have our full support.
If someone has just died, we understand this can be an overwhelming time. Our role is to make things as straightforward as possible, while caring for your loved one with dignity and respect.
We believe every funeral should be as unique as the person it’s for. That’s why we’ll help you create a meaningful send-off that feels right for them, whether that includes a simple family-led service, a traditional funeral, or a direct cremation (without a service).
Arrange a funeral with a service at a day and time that suits your family. Your dedicated funeral planner will take care of every detail, ensuring the arrangements reflect your wishes, including music choices and any special requests.
We offer a range of personalised options, from a simple cremation with a smaller service for close family and friends, to a full celebration of life, that can be uniquely tailored to your budget and preferences. Additional services such as a hearse, limousine, or officiant can also be added if you wish.
A direct cremation is ideal for those who don’t like funerals or who don’t want a fuss. While there’s no service, rest assured your funeral will be carried out to the highest standard by our funeral directors and staff. We treat those in our care with the utmost respect, with our chapel attendant bowing a goodbye to every single coffin.
If you’re thinking about the future, a prepaid funeral plan allows you to arrange and pay for your funeral ahead of time, giving you peace of mind and clarity about your wishes.
We offer a range of prepaid funeral plans designed to suit different needs, preferences, and budgets. Whether you would like a simple, family-led service, or a more traditional funeral with ceremony, or even a no-fuss direct cremation with no service at all, your wishes will be clearly recorded and followed when the time comes.
We have two options here, the Personal Plan is ideal for those wanting a smaller simple service for close friends and family, held at an off-peak time to keep costs as low as possible. Alternatively the Celebration of Life Plan can be a fuller affair with no limitations on the number of attendees or time restrictions. Both plans can be fully personalised, with hearse and limousines, music and flowers. The service can be family-led or you can prepay for an officiant if preferred.
This plan includes everything required for a simple, no-fuss direct cremation, with no additional costs for your loved ones. Although there is no service, you can be assured that your funeral will be conducted with dignity, respect, and the highest standard of care.
