Funerals

Hundreds of bodies have been moved over the past six months due to overcrowded mortuaries.

The idea, put forward by a resident, is to ensure no-one's funeral goes completely unattended.

An £80 payment is now required if a loved one is cremated on the same day as the service.

The charges follow an inquiry into a Hull funeral directors in which police removed human remains.

Gloucester City Council had to move the two bodies to the correct plots at Coney Hill cemetery.

An undertaker and religious figures share their reflections of funerals during the Covid pandemic.

A planning application is submitted, while a public consultation garners 800 responses.

Families affected by the inquiry have been invited to the service at Hull Minster in March.
