My close friend passed away last Saturday night after having suffered for so long and now the cemetery is saying that the burial have given a provisional slot in 18 days after.Apparently , the reason given is unreasonable during a pandemic season.This is very sad and heart breaking as us Muslims should be buried as soon as possible and the EEBC is fully aware of this .This sadly demonstrate the lack of sensitivity by the council to a gentleman who worked so hard for the Muslim community in Epsom and Ewell and worked so closely with the council in the past. I would like NOW to say a BIG THANK YOU to the Council for having done their best to accommodate the burial of my close friend this Friday.Much appreciated,may all the staff remain well and safe.

As peaceful as a cemetery can be, this place is a pleasure to walk in. It is open for most of the day and parking is not an issue. There seems to be a fashion with benches next to graves and I think it’s getting out of hand actually.
Always a joy to be in such a lovely peaceful, well maintained place. A few weeks ago, I found someone had taken a beautiful bronze boxer dog I'd had on my husband's grave for nearly 19 years. What kind of people are around who would do such a thing? One cannot point the finger, but I do have a very strong suspicion as to who has done this. The Office staff were very helpful and compassionate. I'm still very upset about this occurrence.
It's a beautiful cemetery, but they allow the travelers to make to much of a disruption to the peace and quiet. Cars and cars of them, playing music, serving food and allowing their kids to run riot. My family have been there for over 20 years, it's always well maintained. But the aforementioned is quite sad really, especially for people who are grieving.
Extremely disappointed with the council as one of my relative who passed away this week and he is still waiting to be buried. As a Muslim the council is aware that our Burial should be done without delay. I know we are in a pandemic but to be told that they don’t have any staff to assist with the burial is ridiculous. And he will have to wait another 2 weeks. They need to put more resources to help with this. The family has already suffered enough with their loss and the delay is causing them more distress. My relative has always been active with the council and he was one of the persons who lobbied for a Muslim burial plot in Epsom. I hope and pray that he is put to rest ASAP
