Bereavement services
Increase income from bereavement services, saving £160,000 over three years. We would invest £20,000 in improvements to the service to increase the number of burials and cremations undertaken. This could increase the service's income by £60,000 a year.
What people said when we asked about this between 3 November and 15 December 2016
People said:
Just under two thirds agreed or strongly agreed with raising more income by investing to increase the number of burials and cremations. Fourteen percent disagreed or strongly disagreed.
We said:
This is now a budget proposal.
Consultation on our proposed budget closed on 10 February 2017. We listened hard and will considered all responses before finally setting our budget at our council meeting on 3 March.
Thanks to the thousands who joined the conversation.
