All the carbon offsetting projects available on the Greenr platform that Distinct Cremations is using for you have the highest credibility and are verified.
Ashes can be scattered free of charge in our Gardens of Remembrance. If you have chosen to have the ashes returned to you, one of our Funeral Operatives will personally return the ashes to your family after the cremation has happened.
For funeral plans, you can pay half of the cost upfront as a deposit and the remaining amount over six monthly instalments.
