Loved ones can be memorialised at Tilgate Park once again with new requests for a plaque in the Remembrance Garden being accepted via the council website.

From next spring, the park will be also able to offer memorial benches and trees after an eight-month hiatus to develop a streamlined request process.

The Remembrance Garden remains available throughout the year to scatter ashes.

Many people have fond memories of Tilgate Park so I’m pleased we’re now able to reinstate memorial plaques to allow families and friends to have a lasting reminder of their loved one there.

When Tilgate is able to accept new donations of memorial trees there will be a selection of five attractive and colourful species that the park team has chosen, based on those trees best suited to thrive in the environment.
