The trust provides mortuary freezer boxes for families who need to keep a deceased person until the funeral rites are performed.
A mortuary freezer box is a low-temperature stainless steel cabinet that preserves a body without deterioration, holding between 2°C and −15°C. Double-layered and made of solid material, it prevents any odour escaping.
The same boxes are used by hospitals, railways, airports, disaster camps and military sites. For a family, it buys the one thing they need: time for relatives to travel and reach the house.

Three things that would help, today
A freezer box buys a family the one thing they need: time for relatives to arrive.
Fund a box
These are lent free to families and to hospitals. Ask the office what one costs and where the next is needed.
Tell your hospital
The service is useful only to people who know about it before they need it. A ward that knows the number will use it.
Nothing here is paid for on this website. Every one of these starts with a phone call, because they are conversations rather than transactions — and because the trust would rather know what you are offering than take a card number.
