Send Cremated Remains to Space
To celebrate your loved one’s life, we can arrange to have their ashes launched to the edge of space and released to travel the world on a breath-taking final journey. The ascent and release are captured on video to create a treasured memorial film to remember the event. With a commitment to quality and care, we’ll be there to guide you throughout the journey.
Sky Diving with Cremated Remains
For a send off and a view you won’t forget, experience the thrill of freefall while attached to a highly experienced Instructor with a parachute that is designed for two people. You’ll leave the aircraft at 13,000ft and sky dive with the instructor who will open the parachute and scatter the ashes on the way down. The whole journey down lasts for about 6 minutes. The company is affiliated to the British Parachute Association. All tandem instructors are very experienced freefall parachutists who hold BPA Tandem Instructor ratings.
Cremated Remains in a Coral Reef
For lovers of the sea: Divers, Sailors, Fishermen and anyone one else with a passion for wildlife and the sea. A permanent living legacy for those who lived by the sea, made a living from the sea or simply just loved the sea…
Creating a reef for new life to flourish – this new service, based in Weymouth, Dorset, is a great idea for those wishing to be buried at sea.
Either a beautiful memorial or somewhere where your loved one’s ashes are held, their Solace Stone slides from the deck and falls away to the sea bed. This will help create an artificial reef that with bring sea-life and create a rich and diverse ecosystem, and as the reef sanctuary evolves and flourishes it will become home and haven to numerous marine species.
No longer seen as an unconventional solution to a global problem, Artificial Reef Sanctuaries around the world are helping to create healthy environments where sea life can not only survive, but thrive again. Memorial Reefs are part of that change and have a huge role to play.
With the passing of time your loved one’s Solace Stone will become part of the reef’s future growth and protection. It will help to create a special place and become a permanent reminder to all of their unique life.
