Father’s Day at Treswithian Downs Crematorium

Westerleigh Group’s Treswithian Downs Crematorium is inviting families to visit and commemorate the lives of their fathers and father figures.

The site is hosting a special Father’s Day Service of Remembrance on Thursday 16 June at 7pm.

Visitors will have the opportunity of writing a personal message to their loved ones, which will be placed on a memorial tree, and light a candle in their honour.

Light refreshments will be provided after the service.

Treswithian Downs Crematorium is part of Westerleigh Group, the UK’s largest owner and operator of crematoria and cemeteries, with 37 sites in England, Scotland, and Wales, all set within beautifully landscaped gardens of remembrance which provide pleasant, tranquil places for people to visit and reflect.

Site Manager Gemma Manning said: “Father’s Day can be a particularly poignant time for those who have lost their father or father figure.

“Every year, we welcome many families to our grounds who come to lay flowers and commemorate their loved ones around Father’s Day.

“We hope that families will find comfort in their visit to us again this year.”

Visitors will also be able to make donations to Huntington’s Disease Association, Westerleigh Group’s corporate charity partner for 2022.

For those who wish to remember their loved ones on Father’s Day itself, the picturesque, peaceful grounds of Treswithian Downs Crematorium will be open as usual on Sunday 19 June.
