What families say about Simplicity Cremations

Our nearest crematorium to Skelmersdale - Charnock Richard Crematorium

Charnock Richard Crematorium lies to the north-east of Skelmersdale, around a 25-minute drive. Since no mourners attend a direct cremation, this distance is a much smaller consideration than it would be for a traditional funeral, though families are always welcome to visit afterwards to reflect, particularly if ashes have been scattered in the garden of remembrance.

The grounds at Chorley Crematorium are calm and well-tended, offering a quiet setting for reflection. It forms part of our network of 45 crematoria across the UK.

From here we also cover Leyland and the wider Lancashire area, keeping a local cremation within easy reach across the North West.
