In this blog, we give practical advice and ideas to help you if you are arranging a funeral or experiencing bereavement; answer your frequently asked questions/FAQs; and share stories, interviews and opinions.

Ideas & Guidance

When we do Q&As with carers, they often tell us that it can be hard to talk to the person they’re caring for about death and planning for funerals. Here we take a look at starting the conversation and answer some questions, like how to safely save for a funeral and what to prepare for.

Opinion

Funeral directors are there to help you plan a funeral, but what exactly does that mean? We talk you through the funeral director's role before, during and after the funeral.
