Waveney Memorial Park and Crematorium, based in Ellough near Beccles, have presented local charity, Halesworth Men’s Shed, with a cheque for £5000 to be used to support men in Suffolk possible struggling after the death of a special person in their life.
The donation has been raised through a charitable scheme, operated by the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management (ICCM), of which Waveney Memorial Park and Crematorium is a member. Under the scheme metal from medical implants is recycled after cremation, with the consent of the family of the deceased. Twice a year the institute asks its members to nominate local charities, which help to support people to cope with the death of loved ones, to receive a donation.
