 Sensitive Ceremonies & Unique Celebrations

I will create a funeral ceremony or celebration of life for your loved one, which both honours their individual character & opens a healing space for all present. Their personality, beliefs & tastes will colour & set the tone of your service. You can choose to blend light & shade; laughter & sorrow; jokes & prayers; stories & poems; music & moments of silence.

My role is to support you in your process as I make sensitive suggestions, then to write, curate & deliver your ceremony on the day. Whether you choose a cremation service, a natural burial, a graveside ceremony or a memorial in a venue, I will bring my discretion, eloquence, empathy & calming presence.

My experience as a Wellbeing Practitioner enables me to be able to support you, as you work with your emotions. I am also a former journalist & published poet, so I can promise that your ceremony will be meticulously researched & beautifully expressed. To honour your loved one, I will write the perfect eulogy & even compose a bespoke poem, if you wish. Further, I guide you to arrive at the words to express yourself in your tribute to your loved one, then aid you on the day, whether you prefer to speak, or for me to read for you.

With warmth, sensitivity & respect, I am here for you & your family. I pledge to make your journey as free from stress as I can, so that you may find a sense of peace. 

I am here to ensure that the life & character of your loved one is expressed & celebrated with authenticity & sincerity.

From amusing annecdotes to unique memories; nicknames & quirks; triumphs & turning points, I will write a eulogy which strikes the appropriate note.

I will listen to all you can share with me about your loved one, so that you can feel assured that they are being honoured in the most meaningful way. From talking & planning, to the ceremony itself, these steps can be part of a healing process.
