Lest we Forget

This Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day, we honour and remember all those who have served, sacrificed, and lost their lives in service. 🌹

As we come together this weekend and on Tuesday, let us pause, reflect, and show our gratitude to those who fought.

We’re officially open!

We’re proud to share that we have now opened our doors in Musselburgh, near Edinburgh.

Our beautiful new crematorium is the first in Scotland to offer families the chance to make their loved one’s farewell truly personal, thanks to innovative canvas technology which brings the chapel to life with meaningful visuals, lighting and music.

Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to provide comfort, peace and choice for families — from our welcoming chapel and landscaped memorial gardens to our sustainable, accessible facilities.

We look forward to supporting our local community with the exceptional care and compassion that Westerleigh Group is known for.

Our project continues to take shape, with significant progress made on site last week.

All glazing and windows have now been installed, and major works to the car park, drainage systems, and roofing are complete. Internally, the chapel ceiling has been plastered and eaves detailing finalised, while installation of cremator room equipment is well underway. The boundary wall and fencing are progressing well, and SPEN works have been completed with the new meter now fitted.

As we move into the next phase, work is continuing on the stone façade at the main entrance, the reception porch is taking form, and pathways through the garden areas are being laid. The final internal finishes are also advancing across several rooms.

We’re incredibly proud of the care and attention going into every aspect of this build. Once complete, East Lothian Crematorium will provide a peaceful, thoughtfully designed space for the local community for many years to come.

Thank you to City Gate Construction and all our partners for their continued hard work and dedication.
