Have you ever thought about your funeral? Do you know what would happen if you, or someone you cared about, died tomorrow?

In this online session, we’ll go through everything you need to know about funerals. By sharing stories, insights and practical advice, we hope you’ll discover that funerals can be meaningful, personal and cost-effective.

We’ll consider:

• why we have funerals
• what a ‘good’ funeral might be like
• how funerals can be meaningful, personal and cost-effective
• how to choose the right funeral director for you

This session is suitable for people who are:

• thinking about their own funeral
• preparing to arrange a funeral for someone else
• curious about funerals

We hope you’ll go away inspired and empowered to arrange a funeral that’s right for you and fitting for your circumstances.

This session will be held on Zoom and will last around 90 minutes. There’ll be an opportunity for Q&A at the end of the talk. It will be led by Louise Winter, an experienced and award-winning funeral director and the founder of Poetic Endings Funerals. Before becoming a funeral director, Louise was a funeral celebrant and the editor of the Good Funeral Guide. Her first book, We All Know How This Ends, will be published by Bloomsbury in March 2021.
