Reform grave personalisation regulations
Allow families to place small significant mementos, such as toys, ornaments and chimes etc, on graves permanently.
Why is this important?
Families across the borough have been sent letters over the last few years demanding that they remove small items, such as toys and small wind-chimes, from grave plots. This is owing to their being apparently "inappropriate" and a "nuisance". We urge the council to review these regulations and allow these harmless and peaceful mementos to remain on individuals' graves, giving families a sombre and personal place to remember their loved ones.
