This dedicated garden has a mosaic from Maine Road and curved stones from Hyde Road Hotel where City was established. Families can have a ceremonial scattering of a small amount of ashes in this significant space.</p> <p>Natural Endings Funeral Services arrange full funeral ceremonies at the stadium. Where better to pay tribute to a loved one's life than a place where they spent many happy hours with family and friends following their team?</p> <p>A quiet private space is available for the service to take place. Families have the opportunity to have displays of their loved ones photos, play significant music, have a toast with the loved ones favourite beverage, and share memories after the funeral over a few drinks.</p> <p>The funeral ceremony is adaptable to each families needs but it can include the following;</p> <div id="football-bullets"> <ul><li>Blue and white coffin or traditional coffin with flag</li> <li>Funeral ceremony in a suite over looking the pitch at City of Manchester Stadium (religious, semi-religious or non-religious)</li> <li>Area with displays of photos of loved ones life (or audiovisual display)</li> <li>Music played significant to loved ones life</li> <li>Order of service booklet with tributes and photos from that person's life</li> <li>Football Flower tributes</li> <li>After funeral reception with drinks and/or catering</li> <li>Committal at one of Manchester's cemeteries or crematoria</li> <li>Scattering of some of the ashes at a later date in the Memorial Garden</li> </ul> <p><img src="/images/football_coffin.jpg" width="400" title="football coffin"></p> <p><img src="/images/football_coffin_1.jpg" width="400" title="football coffin"></p> <p><img src="/images/manchester_coffin.jpg" width="400" title="football coffin"></p> *Facilities are subject to availability. </div> <!-- Start of StatCounter Code --> <script type="text/javascript"> sc_project=3633767; sc_invisible=1; sc_partition=43; sc_security="cb09d74a"; </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.statcounter.com/counter/counter_xhtml.js"></script><noscript><div class="statcounter"><a class="statcounter" href="http://www.statcounter.com/free_web_stats.html"><img class="statcounter" src="http://c44.statcounter.com/3633767/0/cb09d74a/1/" alt="site stats" /></a></div></noscript> <!-- End of StatCounter Code --> </div> <div class="column right sidebar"> <h4></h4> <div id="sidenavcontainer"> <ul id="sidenavlist"><a href="/buy-coffin-now.asp" title="read more about buying an eco-coffin for quick delivery" xmlns="">Buy a Coffin now</a><a href="/green-funerals.asp" title="read more about buying an eco-coffin for next day delivery" xmlns="">Green Funerals</a><a href="/alternative-funerals.asp" title="read more about buying an eco-coffin for next day delivery" xmlns="">Alternative Funerals</a><a href="/football-funerals.asp" title="read more about funerals taking place at leading football and other sports venues" xmlns="">Football and sports funerals</a><a href="/funeral-transport-hearses.asp" title="read more about buying an eco-coffin for next day delivery" xmlns="">Funeral Transport</a><a href="/contact.asp" title="Contact Natural Endings for alternative, green and eco-friendly funerals" xmlns="">Contact us</a><a href="/about-us.asp" title="Find out more about Natural Endings alternative, green and eco-friendly funerals" xmlns="">About Us</a><a href="/links.asp" title="green funerals, eco-coffins, unusual hearses and non-religious funerals" xmlns="">Useful Links</a><a href="/funeral-poetry.asp" title="verse and poems for funeral readings" xmlns="">Funeral Poetry</a></ul> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> email:<a href="mailto:enquiries@naturalendings.co.uk">enquiries@naturalendings.co.uk</a> | <a href="/contact.asp">Contact telephone</a> </div> </div> </body> </html>
