The Midlands' greenest crematorium is set to open in Nottinghamshire next week. Rushcliffe Oaks crematorium will be launching on Monday, April 3, after years of planning and construction by Rushcliffe Borough Council.
Located in a modern, contemporary building in Stragglethorpe, the crematorium has a focus on nature and is the greenest crematorium to date in the entire Midlands region. The site will allow families to give their loved ones a sensitive, peaceful and respectful send off.
The main room in the building is the hall, which has capacity for 120 people. However, the innovative design of the doors and windows from the entrance means that the windows can be pushed away to open the room up for an extra 80 to 90 people.
