Gardens of Peace edit
In 1998 a group of 6 founders saw a need for a local Muslim burial cemetery in the United Kingdom. The aim for the cemeteries to provide and perform the rites of burial for a Muslim. This would include the washing of body to the janazah prayer and actual burial. Long term plans are to provide a bereavement service and general up keep of all sites. The first burial at their first cemetery was in 2002 at Gardens of Peace (Elmbridge Road).

The site represents the foundations of Gardens of Peace with the facilities on site providing every need to cater for the Muslim community. The site is at capacity for adult funerals whilst child funerals are on going since the opening of the cemetery in 2002.
