At Memoria North Oxfordshire, we understand that mourning a loved one extends far beyond the day of the funeral. Whether it’s a headstone, a commemorative tree, or a bench in their favourite place, it’s natural to seek a space where memories live on—a place to visit, reflect, and pay tribute to a life that meant so much.

We offer a range of memorial options, allowing you to choose something that truly reflects your loved one. Our beautiful parkland is meticulously maintained by our dedicated team and is always open for you to visit, sit, and remember.

Even if you did not hold the funeral service with us, or if a direct cremation was chosen, our parkland and memorials remain available as a place of comfort and reflection.

Choosing the right memorial is a deeply personal decision, and our compassionate team is here to guide and support you every step of the way.

You can visit us in person, call us, or discuss your options with your funeral director.

Distance should never be a barrier to saying goodbye.

We recognise that not everyone can attend a funeral in person. Whether due to illness, travel constraints, or global distance, being absent can add to the emotional weight of a loss.

That's why we offer seamless, high-quality webcast services for every attended funeral. Family and friends can join from anywhere in the world—sharing the same hymns, hearing the same tributes, and witnessing the same goodbye in real time.

What can be included for an additional cost:
🕊 Live streaming with secure login access
🕊 Replay available for 28 days
🕊 Optional keepsakes on DVD or USB
🕊 Easily arranged via your funeral director

Say goodbye in a way that truly includes everyone. Contact us, or speak with your funeral arranger.

For many, today is filled with love, gratitude, and celebration. But for those who are grieving, it can also be a quiet and emotional time of reflection.

At Memoria, we offer a space not just to mourn, but to honour the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father figures who shaped our lives with love, strength, and wisdom.

Whether you visit a memorial, light a candle, or simply pause in your own way — know that remembering is a powerful act of love.

Our beautifully maintained gardens remain open for those who wish to visit and reflect today.

Open 10am - 4pm Sundays.

As we navigate through the darkness, let's not forget the light that memories bring.

Every life leaves a mark—through laughter, love, and the moments we carry forward. At Memoria, our role is to help families celebrate those moments through meaningful, attended funerals that reflect the person behind the name.

In times of loss, it's easy to retreat. But it’s in gathering—through words, music, silence, and presence—that we begin to heal.

We believe in:
• Ceremonies tailored with love
• Time to reflect, cry, and remember
• Moments of connection and hope
• Memorial spaces that feel peaceful and cared for

When you choose to say goodbye in person, you create something lasting—a moment that says, “You mattered.”

Our grounds are not only for beautiful memorials, these are some fantastic photos taken by our team of the flowers that also attract our local bees.

Some moments in life deserve to be marked with dignity, presence, and love.

We believe the funeral ceremony isn’t just about death—it’s about honouring life, legacy, and love.

Direct cremations, though increasingly common, often leave families feeling unfulfilled. The lack of ceremony can mean missed opportunities.
🕊️ No final words.
🕊️ No shared silence.
🕊️ No hand to hold.

An attended funeral brings people together. It offers comfort in unity and permits us to grieve. It allows us to say "thank you," "I love you," and "goodbye."

At Memoria we help families create deeply personal, beautifully delivered ceremonies—where every detail matters.

Let us support you in honouring your loved one in the most meaningful way.

We offer a number of options for attended funerals, depending on your budget and preferences. Talk to a member of staff, or to your local funeral director who will be able to help.

Doves have long been symbols of peace, love, and hope, bringing comfort and inspiration in times of remembrance. Their gentle presence in memorials serves as a reminder that love endures beyond a lifetime.

Our Memorial Glass Dove offers a beautiful and discreet way to honour your loved one. Handcrafted in Devon by skilled artisans, each piece is unique, containing a small amount of ashes within its elegant form. This delicate tribute allows you to keep your memories close, offering solace until you are ready for a more permanent farewell.

Whether placed in a special spot at home or kept as a cherished keepsake, the Memorial Glass Dove provides a serene and lasting connection to those we hold dear.

This is available to order online, or contact us directly to arrange an order.

Funerals today are evolving—families want more than tradition; they seek a truly personal way to honour their loved ones. At Memoria, we’ve been leading this change for over a decade.

In 2013, we became the first to introduce one-hour time slots, giving families the time and space to create a meaningful tribute—without feeling rushed or part of a “conveyor belt” service. This followed our 2011 innovation, when we made eulogies, any music recording, web streaming, and photographic screens standard, helping families craft a unique farewell.

And in 2020, we took it further. We became the first crematoria group in the UK to offer a free-of-charge projected image above the catafalque for the entire service, alongside customisable lighting at the moment of committal. From a cherished family photo to a favourite football team’s crest, these touches ensure a service that reflects a life well-lived.

Because every life deserves a personal farewell.

To discuss the ways you can personalise a service, contact us or talk to your funeral director.

Funerals are more than a farewell—they are a gathering of love, a moment to honour, remember and support one another. They remind us that even in loss, we are not alone

At Memoria, we see every resting place as more than just a marker—it’s a space for connection, reflection and remembrance. A place where family and friends can gather, share stories and find comfort in knowing that a great soul’s presence is never truly gone.

As Maya Angelou so beautifully said:
"A great soul serves everyone all the time. A great soul never dies. It brings us together again and again."

Whether through a dedicated memorial, a peaceful garden or a quiet bench by the lake, we help create spaces where love endures, memories are honoured, and healing begins.

Even if your loved one was cremated elsewhere, you can still intern their ashes in our memorial park. Contact us to discuss your options and to arrange a visit to our memorial park.
