In our thoughts at this time are the families and friends of the following people whose funerals are being celebrated today:

The public will have a rare opportunity to see behind the scenes at Harbour View Crematorium and Burial Ground, Harbour View, Randalls Hill, Lytchett Minster, Dorset BH16 6AN.

We are arranging an open day this Saturday at Harbour View to include public viewing of the crematory (the cremator will be switched off throughout) on:

Saturday, 10 November 2018 between the hours of 1000 to 1500.

Soft drinks and cake/biscuits will be provided to people that visit.

We welcome you to visit the new Long Barrow Chapel, Crematorium and enjoy a walk in the beautiful grounds.

We hope that by having the open day we are giving people the chance to be able to ask questions and to find out more about the facilities at Harbour View.

Woodland burial is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional burial or cremation. Some see it as an environmentally friendly green burial option; others as a resting place that represents a return to nature.

Abundant in natural wildlife, and with views over beautiful Poole Harbour, Harbour View is green in more ways than one: eco-friendly and a place of natural scenic calm.
