Croydon Council is holding an Easter memorial service for residents to celebrate the lives of their lost loved ones.

The memorial service is to take place this Sunday at Croydon Crematorium's East Chapel, in Mitcham Road, at 2.15pm, and is expected to last for around 45 minutes.

Residents of all religions are invited to attend the service which is being described as universal.

There will also be refreshments on the day.

The service is free to attend, but Croydon Council's bereavement service requests those wanting to attend should call the cemetery office on 020 8684 3877 to book a place.
