Forms for Cremation

All of the forms can be downloaded for completion online and signed digitally. Alternatively, you may wish to print them and complete them by hand. Completed forms must be returned to Rushcliffe Oaks at least three working days prior to the date of the service.

For a standard cremation we will need: a Rushcliffe Oaks Instruction Form; an Application for Cremation (Form 1); and a Certificate for Burial and Cremation (known as the green form).

Rushcliffe Oaks Instruction Form

Form 1 - Application for the cremation of the body of a person who has died
(Note: this is the updated 2024 version of the Cremation Form 1)

If a Coroner's post-mortem or inquest has been held, they will issue a Coroner's Certificate (Form 6) in place of the green form.

If a hazardous implant is identified as present on Form 1, Form 6, or the green form, we will also need to receive a confirmatory declaration that this has been removed. A form for this is available at the bottom of this page.
 

Forms for other cremations are available below. Both of these will also need to be accompanied by a Rushcliffe Oaks Instruction Form and the appropriate medical form.

Form 2 - Application for the cremation of body parts

Form 3 - Application for the cremation of a stillborn baby
 

For a service only booking, we will only need a Rushcliffe Oaks Instruction Form, filled in for just the relevant parts.

Forms can be returned by:

• email to – info@rushcliffeoaks.co.uk
• post to – Rushcliffe Oaks, Main Road, Stragglethorpe, Nottingham, NG12 2PY
• or in person to the Crematorium Office.
