Burial and cremation

We are responsible for burial bookings, keeping accurate grave and burial records, processing memorial applications and issuing deeds for exclusive rights to burial.

When someone dies in Powys and there are no known relatives or friends able to make the funeral arrangements we have a duty under the Public Health Act 1984 to make those arrangements. These funerals are called Public health funerals.
