Crematorium Planning Application

Planning permission from both Tewkesbury Borough Council and Cheltenham Borough Council is required before construction of the new facilities can begin. The new crematorium will improve the service offered to mourners and those officiating at funerals. It will sustain the current ambience of the cemetery and reduce the environmental impact of cremating, whilst maintaining the service’s contribution to the council’s financial strategy.
