Members are being sought to join a new 'Friends Of' group.
Following consultation about the appearance, maintenance and security of North East Lincolnshire’s cemetery and crematorium facilities, A ‘Friends Of’ group will be set up to allow people to have their say and further develop the service offered.
The aims of the group will be to discuss matters of interest for Scartho Road Cemetery, Cleethorpes Cemetery and Grimsby Crematorium.
Councillor Peter Burgess, portfolio holder for environment and the green agenda, said: “Residents were asked to fill out a questionnaire on this subject earlier in the year and interested people came forward with their feedback and ideas about these facilities.
“A ‘Friends Of’ group will now be set up to discuss these views further and all are welcome to join, regardless of whether they took part in the first survey.”
The first meeting of the group will take place at 6.30pm on Wednesday, August 18, in the Assembly Room at Grimsby Town Hall.
