Losing a loved one is a difficult time. 

These pages are designed to provide some useful help and advice with the arrangements for dealing with a death.  It is our intention to offer a high standard of care and options which enables each member of the community to arrange a funeral, which is meaningful to them and their family.

Carlisle City Council offer Bereavement Services. We are a community service and as such we have no commercial incentives, and can offer you free help and advice.

There are three Cemeteries and a Crematorium situated throughout the City all of which covers approximately 112 acres.
