A humanist memorial ceremony or celebration of life is a meaningful and personal way to commemorate the life and legacy of your loved one.

 

​​A memorial ceremony typically happens some time after the funeral or direct cremation, providing family and friends the opportunity to come together in a more relaxed setting without time constraints. 

​

​Working in partnership with you, I'll make sure your loved one will be at the heart of the ceremony. I’ll take the time to get to know you as a family to make sure the ceremony is exactly how you'd like it and that everyone taking part on the day will be as comfortable as possible.

 

I also offer bilingual memorial ceremonies in French and Welsh. 

 

You can hold your loved one’s memorial ceremony in any venue of your choice - inside our outdoors in a place that was special to you and them (e.g. the family home or garden, their favourite park or beach, or even the local pub.)

​

I'm based in south-east London and I lead non-religious memorial ceremonies and celebrations of life across London, the South East, Wales and beyond.
