Probably my most asked question; In a nutshell, I am here to guide you through, write and deliver ceremonies for your important life events.
Like a bramble – life is often sweet, sometimes painful, but everything that happens is part of nature. Regardless of one's personal religion, philosophy or spirituality, death is a part of living, and everyone’s life is a story that can be told in a personalised ceremony. Since life is neither boring nor simple, why should a funeral be?
I live in Newcastle with my fiancé and our two rabbits, and can often be found singing at open mics, going to gigs, playing the piano in my band, reading, or escaping into nature or a music festival in our campervan. Music is a huge part of my life, and I’m happiest when around live music. I also enjoy sitting around a table with friends and letting our imagination unfold into fantastic tales.
I love learning new things, finding more about the world and the people in it. I am a seasoned public speaker, a confident presenter who will deliver your ceremonies with energy, compassion, dignity and enthusiasm.
Unlike a traditional religious event, your ceremony will be entirely original; tailored entirely for your needs, I will help you celebrate the uniqueness of your loved one and support you to have a ceremony that you and your family will remember for years to come. I can assist you as much or a little as you’d like, from song choices and readings, to poems and activities – it's your day and we’ll do it your way!
I have a large collection of books, poems and music if you are stuck for ideas, but would love to include any readings you or your loved one has chosen.Since you are selecting a ceremony through UKSOC, unlike Humanist funerals, if you’d like your loved one’s favourite reading, hymn or prayer, this can easily be included.
