Children's Garden blessed at Fenland Crematorium
A new Children's Garden at Fenland Crematorium has been blessed by Reverend Jenny Webb from St Peter's Church on Monday 17 September.
The Children's Garden forms the centrepiece of the Family Garden within the grounds of the crematorium and provides a facility for the ashes of babies or children to be scattered. Plaques purchased from the crematorium can also be placed within the garden to remember children or babies that have died.
This is the latest development at Fenland Crematorium which opened in August 2010.
