Memoria South Oxfordshire Memorial Park & Crematorium

Memoria South Oxfordshire Memorial Park & Crematorium South Oxford Crematorium is set in beautiful surroundings and offers the most distinguished and professional of services.

Our Mission Statement

South Oxfordshire Crematorium and Memorial Park Limited has a mission to provide exceptional standards of service and facility to the bereaved families that use its crematoria and gardens of remembrance. This is because it is not only commercially sensible to do so but also because it is an essential act of human decency towards people who have just lost a much loved member of their family or friend. Bereavement is the price we must all pay for the joy of loving and being loved. The loss of a loved one is the most stressful, unhappy and traumatic experience that we will face in life. We at South Oxfordshire Memorial realise that we are unable to eradicate such pain but we also know it is our responsibility and duty to be as efficient, kind, respectful and polite as humanly possible to our clients at their time of grief, and thereafter when they return to remember their cherished relatives or friends. Therefore it is our aim to provide immaculately clean and tidy facilities in tranquil and beautiful surroundings attended by people who are sincerely dedicated to our mission, and who take a great pride in their work as a result.

Commemorating 10 years of serving the local community.

This year marks a very special milestone—ten years of coming together in remembrance, reflection, and support. We warmly invite you to join us for a service dedicated to honouring the lives of loved ones who remain forever in our hearts.

Our chapel will provide a serene setting for readings, poems, and music that bring treasured memories of those we have lost to mind.

A poignant visual tribute will also take place, with the names of your loved ones displayed in their honour - a touching reminder of the love and joy they brought into our lives.

After the service, we invite you to scatter wildflower seeds in our garden of remembrance, which will provide a lasting and symbolic tribute that will bloom for years to come.

Choosing the right music for a funeral or celebration of life can feel overwhelming, but it’s often one of the most meaningful ways to honour a loved one. Music has the power to capture emotions, spark memories, and reflect a life well lived.

According to The Funeral Guide UK, these are some of the most requested pieces of music: from timeless classics like Canon in D and Ni**od, to modern favourites such as Angels by Robbie Williams, My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion, and even uplifting choices like Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.

It’s a reminder that there’s no “right” choice, only the music that feels right for you and your family.

💭 We’d love to know…what song would you choose to celebrate the life of someone special?

Remembering a loved one doesn’t always need to be tied to a place - sometimes it can be found in the quiet moments at home.

The Eternal Flame Glass Oil Candle offers a unique and meaningful way to create a home memorial. Handcrafted in Somerset, each piece is made with care and can incorporate a small amount of your loved one’s ashes. The result is a beautiful, timeless tribute that becomes part of your daily life.

Available in a range of elegant colours, this candle is more than décor, it’s a lasting reminder of love, illuminating your home with warmth, memory, and peace.

Because remembrance is not only about looking back, but also about carrying love forward. 🌿

Grief is a natural response to love and loss. It can feel overwhelming at times, but it is also a necessary part of healing. There is no timeline, no “right way” - only your way.

At our grounds, we see daily the love that families carry for those they have lost. Creating a memorial or choosing a special resting place can provide comfort, offering a space to visit, reflect, and continue that bond.

🌿 However you choose to honour your loved one, remember: grief is not weakness - it is love enduring.

At Memoria South 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.

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.
