3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 2: nineteen past five. Now do you remember that christ Church

4
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 2: Crematorium that has started offering water cremations. Turns out people

5
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 2: quite like this idea. Since they started offering the service

6
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 2: in June, seventy five percent of their cremation customers have

7
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 2: chosen the water option. Andrew Bell is a co director

8
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: of the crematorium and he's with us.

9
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: Now, Hi, Andrew, Hey, Heather, how are you doing?

10
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 3: I'm well, thank you. Why are people so into it?

11
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: Well, there's a couple of reasons. There's the environmental benefit

12
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: is one, just a lack of carbon that goes into

13
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: the atmosphere from the process. There's also a preference some

14
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: people don't like the idea of fire and prefer water

15
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: over that. And then yeah, just tuspetal with some people.

16
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 3: So if it's such a big business for you at

17
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 3: the minute, is it going to get bigger?

18
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: I imagine it will. I mean we won't expecting. The response,

19
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: to be honest, that we had from it seventy five

20
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: percent straight away was quite quite more, a bit more

21
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: than what we're expecting. And I mean last month we

22
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: were ninety percent water cremation. So it's it seems to

23
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: be on the app.

24
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 2: I mean it seems to be like, I mean, you know,

25
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 2: it's not my business, but it seems to me like

26
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: this must be a much easier option for you guys,

27
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 2: Like you don't have to get that fire burning really

28
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 2: hot to check someone.

29
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: Let's just there aren't no health and safety concerns with

30
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: the system that we've got. It does seem to be

31
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: a little bit easier to operate.

32
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would imagine.

33
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 2: Hey, best of luck that and I'm pleased to hear
