Horizon was founded in 2017 by Stephen Byfield and Jeremy Hamilton, both of whom had poor personal experiences of crematoria near them and reacted by setting up Horizon. Our vision is to provide excellent service from great new facilities in areas of need.
Jeremy founded Horizon following a 20-year career in communications and political relations. A graduate of the renowned Strathclyde School of Government and Public Policy, Jeremy also comes from a family business background within the private and residential care sectors. At Horizon, Jeremy overseas our Scottish sites, as well as taking others through the planning process.
