My Service

I am based in Northwich, Cheshire and I am able to conduct civil funerals between Chesire and London. I will help you to create a bespoke tribute and service.

I can assist you or create from your words a personalised tribute to tell the story of your loved one. I will if required present the eulogy/tribute and deliver the service at your chosen venue.

Each funeral is created to your individual requirements, to suit what you and your loved one would have liked or wanted. You can choose appropriate music, poetry, include a prayer, play or sing a hymn if you would like or simply have some reflection silence time in the service allowing people of faith to say their own silent prayer. I will work for and with you to ensure that your funeral is everything that you want it to be.

My initial contact will be by telephone to arrange a meeting with the bereaved person or family to discuss your wishes for the funeral service.
The meeting can be virtual, via telephone or in person usually lasting for up to 2 hours and can be broken down into smaller meetings if you prefer. I will assist you to create or create from your words a personalised tribute that tells the story of your loved one. I will if required assist you and present a fitting service to suit your wishes and that of you loved one and what they represented in their life and your life. I understand that this will and can be difficult and am happy to patiently work with you and what suits you at a pace that suits you.
I will email you a copy of the created tribute and service for you to proof and amend or agree and I will be available for you to liaise with to make any changes required until you are completely satisfied.
The day before the funeral, I will contact you by phone.
Once the funeral is over, I will supply you with a printed and electronic copy of your service for you to keep.
On the day of the Funeral, I will be at your chosen venue before the funeral, I will work with your funeral director to ensure everything runs smoothly, presenting the bespoke service fitting for your loved one and family.
