Whenua Tapu now has a dedicated space where families can scatter the ashes of their loved ones.

The new Piwakawaka Memorial Bush Walk is a gentle path which has been lined with 1500 native plants and runs between the lower and upper areas of the cemetery. People can also choose to buy a small plaque to display on a wooden post along the walk to more permanently mark where their loved one is scattered. There is a chance to hear more about the new walk as part of this year’s annual Cemeteries Week, which runs from 29 October to 6 November.

The full list of events can be found on the Council’s Facebook page.
