Cemetery Development Services Ltd (CDS) was founded in 2003 but its historical association with the cemetery industry dates back to 1999 when its founder, Justin Smith, undertook some of the first Environment Agency Groundwater Risk Assessments introduced for new developments.Over the last 16 years, CDS has undertaken in excess of 400 feasibility studies and designed and built over 40 new cemeteries both in the UK and overseas. As a result of the success and reputation in the cemetery market, CDS has expanded into designing and developing new crematoria sites for both private companies and local authorities; with many new sites currently under construction and many more at various stages of feasibility, design and planning.Due to the increasing demand and recognising the continued growth of Cemetery Development Services, the company was rebranded as The CDS Group in November 2019 to offer clients a wider range of services covering Cemeteries and Crematoria, Parks and Leisure, and Environmental Solutions. The in-house teams of designers, planners, environmental consultants and drainage engineers are focused on providing a single point of contact throughout the project to ensure clients enjoy a seamless experience from inception to completion.
