The Westerleigh Group are the parent company of Distinct Cremations. Together, we are one of the largest funeral and cremation service providers. The Westerleigh Group have owned and managed a network of private crematoria within the UK for over 30 years.
The coffin is burned with the body of the deceased inside the cremator.
All of the necessary services required for your cremations are in your initial costs. However, on occasion there may be additional costs. You can read the full list of additional services for more information.
Unfortunately we can’t transfer plans from a different company to ourselves. However, you can simply cancel your existing plan and take out a new one with us if you want to.
You’re free to visit any of our crematoria, within their opening hours, to view the grounds and facilities ahead of time.
On average it takes around two hours to cremate a body, but it can sometimes be longer or shorter in certain circumstances.
Cremation services typically last between 10 and 45 minutes, depending on the type of service chosen. For an unattended cremation there’s no service held before the cremation takes place.
Plans can be transferred upon request for those who've paid for a plan over 12 months or in one single payment. Unfortunately, we cannot transfer plans paid for by instalments over 5 or 10 years to another person.
We offer the highest levels of support and service but don't take our word for it read why our customers trust us.
