About SAMM Safety
Part of The Willcox Group, SAMM was conceived in 2021 to create a standout memorial inspection system with a simple, effective interface. SAMM Safety now supports cemetery and wider estate inspections, developed by sector experts with our in-house team. We train and support your staff and, when needed, can provide a UK-wide network of fully trained memorial inspectors to carry out headstone safety tests.
Headstone Safety Testing
We understand that not all burial authorities have the resources to carry out Headstone and Memorial Safety testing. We have therefore built a network of fully trained inspectors to augment our SAMM Safety Management system. Our National Association of Memorial Masons (NAMM) trained memorial masons and inspectors are also capable of carrying out on-site works to make safe and reinstate memorials to the highest standards. A full-service, turnkey solution is available as a cost-effective package throughout the U.K.
