Some info for you.

Local newspaper.The Advertiser 01905 794909

Library,  01905 773292

A lot of churches in the Droitwich area have their own graveyards,  and all churches have a book showing where people are buried, sometimes the best person to ask is the gravedigger as it is often a job handed down throu father and son and they tend to keep their own records.  As for a public cemetery  Droitwich comes under Worcester County Council, main tel. no.  01905763763  Up to date maps of the Droitwich area can always be had from Estate agents they will show the local churches.

Cemeteries have burial registers.

Where I live you can search them yourself at the local archives centre but if you write to the cemeteries office at the council, they will also conduct a search for you although you do have to have a fairly good idea of when the person died.
