However unforeseen, it is wise to pause and grieve with those whom we love. For devotion is the balm which can help to ease life’s pain
What is a Civil Funeral Celebrant?
A Civil Funeral Celebrant guides non-religious ceremonies, providing tailored funeral services according to the family’s wishes. I was trained and accredited by the Institute of Civil Funerals (IoCF). This is a professional body established to train, asses and qualify Civil Funeral Celebrants throughout the United Kingdom. It has guaranteed standards for the services provided by its celebrants and is underpinned by a code of practice and continued professional development.
I am not bound by any rules or regulations, and in reality I find that many families wish to include elements of religious or spiritual content. Therefore I am happy to include hymns, prayers or indeed anything which helps a family say farewell to their loved one in a way that suits them.
