PYRE SURVEY
We have been running a pyre survey on the NDC website for a while
now..
More than 500 people have voted with just
over 90% in favour of this style of disposal
being made available again in the British
Isles.
Our helpline still receives calls about this
every week from families wanting this style
of send off and there are a couple of
individuals who are seriously thinking about
putting planning applications together in
an effort to establish the UK’s first licensed
open air crematoria.

We, the NDC, support the campaign to relegal-
ise outdoor funeral pyres here in the UK. We fee
there are strong historical precedences for this
in our ancestral past, and we believe it would
work environmentally, socially and spiritually
regardless of religious belief or ethnic background.
Our full arguments in favour of this are available here on the website, and in the current
edition of The Natural Death Handbook.
