DIRECT CREMATION
Also sometimes known as pure cremation, direct cremations are a simple cremation without a funeral service. Direct cremations are increasingly being chosen by people in the UK.
Often completely unattended, direct cremations offer a low cost, low key alternative to more traditional funerals. All of our handwoven willow coffins are suitable for a direct cremation.
Willow stretchers
For a direct cremation, a coffin is not necessarily required. At Musgrove Willows, we also offer beautiful handmade willow stretchers with a natural calico shroud. A willow stretcher can be used for private viewings of a loved one before a direct cremation.
