Join us in celebrating the rich heritage and natural beauty of our local burial grounds during Love Your Burial Ground Week. This special week, running from June 7th to 15th, is an opportunity to appreciate and explore the wildlife and history present in our cemeteries and churchyards.
Organised by Caring for God’s Acre, in partnership with the Church of England, the Church in Wales, and A Rocha UK, this initiative encourages communities to engage with these serene spaces through activities like wildlife spotting, history walks, and nature recording.
Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, a history buff, or someone seeking a peaceful stroll, there’s something for everyone. You can even contribute to national records by noting the flora and fauna you observe.
At Harrison Funeral Home, we recognise the importance of these sacred spaces, not only as places of remembrance, but also as havens for biodiversity.
