The Natural Death Centre is unique in providing the only independent funeral advice service in the UK. We provide information on all types of funeral choices, but are especially known for advice & support on family-organised, environmentally-friendly funerals, and Natural Burial Grounds.
For many years the NDC has managed to operate on a small budget, but this summer hit financial difficulties. Thanks to the great efforts of volunteers and very generous donations received, the Natural Death Centre has now achieved financial stability. The Centre will be relaunched early new year with a new management and trustee team - watch this space for details! In the meantime, your donations are always welcome and appreciated.
