Great to work with my Humanist Ceremonies colleague Louise Curtis yesterday who travelled all the way from Surrey to deliver an excellent tribute for a family friend!
"While burning a Quran in a public place may be provocative and offensive to many, it should not automatically be considered criminal. The outcome of this case represents a troubling surrender to Islamic blasphemy codes." Stephen Evans The Freethinker freethinker.co.uk/2025/06/coskun…
Dear The Labour Party - if you’re looking for a quick win during the current challenging period - what about pushing the button of the legislation already in place to enact Humanist Ceremonies wedding legislation.
When I give thanks to ex policing colleagues at my Humanist Ceremonies funerals, I always make sure it’s fed back to them, These comments truly highlights the diverse roles within policing, as they did everything possible to assist before the paramedics arrived.
🌟 One of my golden rules for a Humanist Ceremonies funeral is that the tribute (eulogy) should account for around 85 to 90% of all that is said. To me, a funeral should solely be a heartfelt reflection of the deceased's life and personality, honouring their unique journey.
Proud to have taken today my 1,500 Humanist Ceremonies ceremony booking today (from the lovely Rachel at J T Byrne Funerals ). Thanks to everyone who’s helped me on my 7 and a half year journey!
