Crematorium in Havelock North
Crematorium in Havelock North meeting to be held for Havelock North Friends and Neighbours, Monday 14th
April 2025, at 2pm. Place Civic Administration room, floor 0, Hastings District Council offices.

Will be present at the meeting
Are you concerned about this and if so, you are invited to
attend a meeting with the department who consented on
this new Crematorium. As residents and ratepayers, we
feel we were never given the opportunity to speak up
about this major decision so now is your chance.
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
Do not let our beautiful village be ruined of its uniqueness
forever by a bad decision made on our behalf. A more
appropriate decision would be to have it out of a residential area or with appropriate car parking and a place for mourners to congregate.
Marion and Garrie Griffiths

🎭 Tricky, Twisty, and Totally Fun—Let’s Riddle! 🤹♂️
I bring people together, though I’m not alive;
I’m small but vital, helping communities thrive;
I’m often green, sometimes blue or red—
without me, connections might be dead—
What am I?
