Can a natural burial be unmarked?

Yes. At Thoulstone Park, graves are left unmarked so the meadow stays a meadow, with names recorded on a memorial board instead.

Can pet ashes be buried at a natural burial ground?

Some sites allow it. Michael's Wood accepts pet ashes.

Can I press the button on a memorial firework display?

With some providers, yes. Northern Lights Fireworks offers this. Read our guide to ashes into fireworks.

Can I scatter ashes on Salisbury Plain?

Much of Salisbury Plain is Ministry of Defence training land with restricted access, so choose somewhere else or ask permission first.
