Arun Crematorium will host a free open day on May 17.

A crematorium will open its doors to the public for an open day. Arun Crematorium, part of the Westerleigh Group, will welcome visitors on Saturday, May 17. The event will run from 10am to 2pm, with guests invited to explore the memorial gardens and chapel in Grevatt's Lane, Yapton, Arundel.

There will also be the opportunity to tour the crematory and meet the team. Manager Adam Westwood said: "Those who attend our community open day will be able to find out first-hand about the exceptional care with which we serve the community and their loved ones. "Visitors will be able to learn about the range of farewell services we offer, the technology we use, and how we can make every funeral uniquely personal.



" The open day will also allow attendees to place a card or message to loved ones in the crematorium’s memorial post box. Mr Westwood added: "We will also be able to tell visitors about the work we do in the local community and the many local charities and organisations we support. "There is no entry fee for our community open day, no appointments are necessary, and light refreshments will be available.

"Everyone is welcome, and we look forward to meeting local families on May 17.".
