Applications and forms for funeral directors
Council’s cemeteries offer peaceful, dignified spaces set within some of the Tweed’s most beautiful locations. These are places for remembrance, reflection and honouring the lives of those we love.
We work closely with funeral directors to provide caring, professional support for families during difficult times. Across the Tweed, we manage 11 cemeteries – including 3 lawn cemeteries and 8 general cemeteries – each with its own unique character.
A range of options are available, including burial plots, memorials, cremations and ash interments, offering meaningful places for family and friends to gather and remember.
Whether you’re planning ahead or arranging a farewell for a loved one, we provide high‑quality, cost‑effective services designed to make the process as gentle and stress‑free as possible.
All services can be provided in one location so families can take comfort in a more streamlined and supportive experience.
