Westerleigh Group has announced the appointment of Georgia Hanson as the new manager of Vale Royal Crematorium.
Hanson’s career in the bereavement sector began following her studies in biomedical sciences at the University of Manchester.
She joined Westerleigh Group in January 2021 in the six-month temporary position as crematorium assistant at Howe Bridge Crematorium, wanting to build on her medical knowledge from her degree.
Her position was made permanent towards the end of that six-month period and Hanson soon found herself taking on some managerial duties as she continued to develop her skills and experience in all aspects of the role.
Hanson said: “I am passionate about providing exceptional service, support and care to the bereaved and our local communities when they need it most. Westerleigh Group is a business that identifies talent and provides excellent support and opportunities.
“I want to reinforce and strengthen the relationships we have with our local Funeral Directors so that together, we can provide our community with support and the highest level of service.”
She added: “Vale Royal Crematorium is truly a beautiful setting in which our visitors can reflect, remember and commemorate their loved ones. Being able to work in such a beautiful setting with a compassionate team dedicated to providing support to families when they need it the most really fills me with pride.”
