  • "I just wanted to express my thanks to the team at Nene Valley Crematorium - you made both the separate cremation and funeral service for our mother such a calm and peaceful experience. I do look back on it as a very considerate and accommodating experience, at your lovely venue".

  • "One of the best presented crematorium chapel spaces I've seen in 50 years". Local Reverend's first visit.


  • "Having just been appointed in recent weeks at St Benedict's church (Parish of Briar, Camp Hill & Hansbury) it was a real pleasure to be assisted in my first service at Nene Valley Crematorium. The professionalism and manner from team members were outstanding and well deserved of high praise. As members of the crematorium staff, and clergy, we have the unique opportunity to journey with families in their time of grief - smaller detail can be forgot. May I say thank you again - I know that in future months, and years, the same level of professionalism will be shown as it was today. We will, together, be able to help some of these families at a difficult time".


  • The deceased's daughter returned to the crematorium to show her young son the floral tributes for his late grandfather. When asked, a team member reopened the Ceremony Hall/chapel for him to view, and explained what happened at the funeral held earlier that day - this team member played short pieces of the music, along with displaying the tribute photograph. An appreciative family member.
