Unstable memorials can pose a hazard by falling over unexpectedly. Please take care not to touch any memorial or rely on them for support during your visit.
We are conducting memorial safety tests to assess the risk of memorials falling over and causing injury. This consists of a visual inspection and simple hand test to check for movement.
Any memorial found to post an immediate hazard will be laid flat and the grave owner contacted.
Memorials remain the property and responsibility of the grave owner. If your memorial has been laid flat you will need to contact your stonemason to have it safely re-fixed.
For further questions and information please contact our Bereavement Services Officer, Anthony Motyka on 01296 425678 or email info@aylesburytowncouncil.gvo.uk
