Our Ethos

We put people and planet before profit

  • We are committed to putting people and the planet before profit by democratising sustainable death care. Our aim is to prove that profitability can emerge as a natural by-product of purpose-driven, ethical decision-making. We are in the process of obtaining social enterprise certification to formalise our commitment to positive social, emotional and environmental impact.

  • Our success is grounded in responsibility, accountability, and stewardship. We will prioritise transparency across our entire supply chain, ensuring that all materials are ethically sourced and that our practices maximise positive outcomes for people and the planet.

  • At Evergrove, we place people at the heart of everything we do. Our human-centred design approach ensures that we design with people rather than for them, informed by extensive social research and direct engagement. We are continually conducting surveys, interviews, and gathering feedback to understand what families and communities value in death care. This input will drive continuous improvement in our services. We will listen to a diverse range of voices - including secular individuals, cultural communities, and families - alongside religious and spiritual leaders. Our flexible and inclusive design empowers families to make choices that resonate deeply with their beliefs, traditions, and values, creating memorials that are as unique as the lives they honour.
