Frequently Asked Questions

Someone that I care about has passed away and I have been asked to arrange their funeral. What do I do?

First of all, take your time, there is no hurry. These decisions are difficult at any time and are made even harder when you are grieving. Whether your loved one shared their wishes or not, we are here to help guide you and your family.

A funeral director will need to be contacted to take your loved one into their care, and to prepare them for whatever arrangements you make.  If you don’t have a funeral director in mind, we can help you by providing contact details of those in your area.

What should I consider when deciding to be buried or cremated?

Deciding between burial or cremation is a very important and personal decision, and is usually made based on your individual wishes, family traditions, religious beliefs, or cultural practices.

Centennial Park has more than 30 stunning ashes memorial gardens [link] for families to choose from. These provide a beautiful, peaceful place for extended family and friends to visit and remember a loved one.

Set within the serene beauty of our Park, we offer a diverse range of burial options [link], from traditional burials and premium locations with stunning views to dedicated spaces for infants and children.

Our experienced team is here to help you choose the best option for you.
