A farewell that honours a life

How I'll help

My role as a civil funeral celebrant is to guide you, with care and compassion, in creating a ceremony for a unique life lived, and to fulfil the wishes and beliefs of everyone concerned.

• I'll meet you personally, at home or by phone or video call, to talk about the ceremony and gather the stories that matter.
• If you'd like, I'll help with choosing music, poetry and readings.
• I'll write a beautifully crafted tribute that tells their story in an engaging and touching way.
• You'll have plenty of time to check the ceremony and make any changes.
• On the day I'll lead the ceremony, and you'll have the full script to keep.

Your choice of content

Many people today would prefer a funeral that celebrates and honours the life of their loved one, their story and personality. A civil ceremony can be held at a location of your choice and can include religious, semi-religious or spiritual content. Readings from family and friends are always welcomed and encouraged.

Memorial services

A memorial service is a chance to gather and remember someone at a time and place that suits you, whether weeks or months after the funeral. I'll create it with the same care, so it feels personal and true to them.

I will carefully support you with kindness, so you can say your gentle farewells peacefully. Celebrants are often booked through your funeral director, so just let them know you'd like me, or get in touch with me directly.
