Memorial Benches

One of the most commonly asked questions that we receive is that of how much a memorial bench actually costs. The real answer is how long is a piece of string.

When people create memorial benches for their loved ones what they do not see is that in fact they create public works of art. At face value they are crafted physical objects more often than not engraved with text, placed in significant locations special to the deceased or their family. But what is so fascinating is the journey a memorial bench takes from the specific details required by the family to the invitation of an emotional reaction that they evoke from complete strangers.

As tough as these times are, we have also been finding there are lots of positives experiences to be had; time with your children, a sense of local community and love, self-reflection, practising the virtues of patience and relaxation, talking with family and friends to name but a few.
