Leave our graves alone!
Reverse the decision to enforce relatives to remove fences,gravel and plants and other decorations from the graves of their loved ones by 30th November 2020
Why is this important?
In Whinfield Cemetery it has been common practise for many years for the relatives to decorate the last resting place of their loved ones with very small wire fences, pretty gravel and rose bushes or other shrubs. There are dozens of plots that have been decorated to make a special place for the families to visit. This is very important especially for young children who have lost a parent and find comfort in their graves looking as beautiful as they can. It has never been a problem in the past but now suddenly we have been told to remove it or have it removed which is extremely upsetting and stressful for everyone involved. What harm is it doing?. Despite many people complaining and pleading with Rainsbrook Burial Services they refuse to compromise. We are respectfully requesting that the decision to remove our ornamental embellishments be reverse and our loved ones be allowed to rest in peace
