Mission and values
Our mission is to provide dignified, respectful care in a unique, natural and tranquil setting. We commit to offering support not only on the day of the service, but also whenever you return to remember your loved one. We want families to be able to return time and time again to reflect, grieve and celebrate the lives of those they love in a way that feels deeply personal.
Our values
At Lake View Bereavement Centre we provide compassionate funeral services, natural burials, cremations, and bereavement support in harmony with nature.
Support for the deceased
All individuals are treated with respect and dignity at all times. We honour every individual with meaningful, personal tributes, creating a unique farewell that reflects a life remembered. We’re committed to providing services that are inclusive and respectful of religious, cultural, and personal beliefs.
Support for the bereaved
We offer compassion, understanding and support to families through life after loss, recognising that every life is individual and every farewell should be personal, meaningful and thoughtfully delivered. Our door is always open, and we are always here to provide support, guidance and advice whenever it is needed.
Support for the community
Friends and families that people leave behind want to take time and space to remember their loved ones. That is why Lake View Bereavement Centre is a place we have officially dedicated to the people of East Cambridgeshire, enabling them to access and benefit from our beautifully peaceful and wildlife-rich grounds all year round.
Support for the environment
Lake View is set within a peaceful, natural environment. As a designated County Wildlife Site, we’re committed to carefully managing the site to protect local habitats and wildlife, offering a serene resting place where people and nature find peace together.
Support for funeral directors and associated businesses
We’re committed to working innovatively and collaboratively with funeral directors, charities, and local organisations to strengthen our service delivery and community presence.
Our principles of service delivery
We recognise that grief is deeply personal and there is no single way to navigate loss.
