Our Social Responsibility
Social Responsibility
The Hurlet Crematorium is set within the rolling Hurlet Hills and is easily accessible for families across East Renfrewshire, Renfrewshire and Glasgow South.
We conduct our services ethically and with the utmost sensitivity, ensuring that important social, cultural, economic and environmental matters are managed with care and attention.
Respect our environment & support our community
The crematorium is set within 1.9 hectares of open landscape, surrounded by the rolling Hurlet Hills. Our location is tranquil, free from noise and distractions, and we believe it is a fitting place in which to hold a funeral service.
We support our local community’s economy by employing local people who know the communities and the character of the areas we serve.
We are committed to sourcing materials from local suppliers and local service providers wherever we can.
Protect Our Environment
Our facility is home to a wide variety of birds which nest in the large, wooded areas surrounding our gardens of remembrance.
We are also fortunate to be surrounded by rolling green grassland hills which are grazed by cattle from the local farm.
All of our systems are managed to actively reduce our carbon footprint and to boost the biodiversity of our site.
Through extensive pollinator and tree planting, we continue to encourage bird and insect wildlife across the site.
Invest in our charity partners
As a member of the ICCM recycling of metals scheme, we are able to donate vital funds to local hospices and other important charities.
Staff and public donations also raise money for local charities and every pound raised is matched by the crematorium.
To date Horizon has donated well over £100,000 to local good causes in Scotland, including CHAS – Children’s Hospices Across Scotland, St Vincent’s Hospice, local cancer care charities, food banks and other local hospices.
