For all funerals celebrants as we navigate this new territory and adjust to news about COVID-19.

I've written a guide to help people who worry about what to say to a grieving friend. It has suggestions for what you can do to help someone who is mourning a loss. There's even a video if you don't feel like reading! Take a look and please share.

No change from the government today on the maximum number for #funerals in England (subject to individual venue capacity & additional rules for some areas of #locallockdown. Please check with your funeral director on the situation in your local area.

Ah, the one exception to the “those people” rule. I have too often heard people say, “oh well, not him, he’s different”. It seems “they” can all be this or that, but the person standing in front of "you" is always the fabulous exception #other #DiversityandInclusion #weneedchange

Climate change is not just about the environment, it’s an Equality issue. It may not be a ‘big deal’ for people in the UK as long as we get ‘great summers’ and no one we love is affected. Homes are burning, flooded, lost… ‘Others' matter as much as you do #EqualityForAll
