About Us
At Aerial Ashes, we believe that every farewell should be as unique and meaningful as the life it honours. Founded in 2019 by former RAF helicopter pilot Christopher Mace, our journey began with a heartfelt mission: to provide dignified, accessible, and environmentally conscious ash scattering ceremonies using drones. Christopher's experience scattering ashes of ex-RAF airmen over the sea inspired him to refine this technique, leading to the establishment of Aerial Ashes.
In 2024, under the leadership of Matt Young, Aerial Ashes expanded its operations across the UK, ensuring that families nationwide can commemorate their loved ones in places that held special significance. Our team is dedicated to offering a compassionate and professional service, guiding families through every step of the process with care and understanding.
Our Pledge
We are committed to:
- Dignity and Respect: Ensuring every ceremony honours the memory of your loved one with the utmost respect.
- Personalisation: Tailoring each service to reflect the unique wishes and memories of the departed.

At Aerial Ashes, we are honoured to help families create lasting tributes that celebrate life and provide comfort in times of loss.
