A green funeral is usually focused around reducing the impact a funeral may on the environment. Some people choose to have coffins made from natural sustainable materials such as cardboard.

Woodland funerals usually take place within acres of natural countryside.  They offer a beautiful alternative to a traditional ceremony. Burial plots are set amongst wild flowers and trees, family members can choose to scatter ashes within the peaceful grounds. The nearest one in Sheffield would be Wisewood Cemetery which overlooks the scenic Loxley Valley.
