DIRECTIONS
Public transport: West
Brompton station is a few minutes walk away. This has both overland
trains linking to Clapham Junction and underground district line tubes, Wimbledon
branch. Come out of the station and turn right.
By car: we are
permitted to drive into the cemetery through the Old Brompton Road gates and
park in the central avenue on one side only - follow the others who have parked
before you. Cars must be removed after the burial as the cemetery will be
locked. Local on-street parking will be pay and display, coins only.
On foot: there is
pedestrian access from the Fulham Road end of the cemetery as well.
Directions to the Pembroke:
turn right out of the Old Brompton Road cemetery gates. Cross over the road at
the traffic lights. The Pembroke is on the corner of the next road.
All are welcome for both funeral and reception. There is a final bit that Sylvia requested we do that will happen at the reception so please make time if you can to come to that too.
The family request no
wreaths. Single flowers may be placed by the grave after the committal.
There will be a
retiring collection for Trinity Hospice.
Please follow the link on the
service sheet or below to our just giving page if that is easier.
We are going to carry
Sylvia's willow coffin about 600 metres to the graveside. We would like to do
this in stages, changing the bearers, so that many people can take part. It
will be carried at waist height, by the handles, which is a more calm, informal
way to carry and which enables people of different heights and ages to be
involved and you don't need to all be in step. Please come forward at the time if
you would like to do this.
