About Metropolitan Memorial Parks
For over 150 years, Metropolitan Memorial Parks has been a place of meaningful connection and history. We are dedicated to creating a shared space for all Australians—one where life’s most significant moments are honoured, remembered, and cherished. Through compassionate care and sustainable innovation, our grounds are carefully crafted to be lasting tributes, ensuring they remain special for generations to come. Our team is united by a deep commitment to excellence and a heartfelt responsibility to the communities we serve.
Genuine Care, Respect Diversity, One Team, Deliver Excellence
Our values guide everything we do. We treat all families with respect and compassion during their time of need.
Beautifully maintained parklands provide peaceful places for reflection and lasting tributes, underpinned by sustainable practices to ensure these memorial parks remain for generations to come.
"This is a tremendously important service and requires a level of compassion and professionalism from our staff as they deal with families at a most difficult period. As an organisation, we also support the rich diversity of modern Australia as different faiths and communities farewell loved ones with their own beliefs and rituals.
Providing interment services to communities in a professional and sensitive way will always remain the cornerstone of MMP’s work."
- Ken Morrison, Chair
