Crematoria raise £15,000 for Cancer Research UK

We are very pleased to announce that Chilterns and Bierton Crematoria have raised the fantastic sum of £15,000 for Cancer Research UK through participation in a 'not for profit' metals recycling scheme run by the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management.

With the consent of bereaved families, metal items, used as part of surgery, are often recovered during the cremation process and the most responsible way to dispose of these is to recycle them.  The money raised is divided between ICCM members for distribution among charities and we hope that people who are bereaved take comfort from that.
