Arranging a funeral at the time of need is usually a daunting task. You may know little about it. Most people don’t talk about it. You want to give them a good send-off, but how?

There are few rules around funerals. What would make a beautiful funeral for your special person or for yourself? It’s easy to throw money at it and end up with things you don’t want. Knowledge will save you from doing this.

You can make things much easier with a few hours of preparation. You will feel much more in control and able to cope. You can make sure you give the person who has died a funeral to look back on with pride, something to cherish.

We have published the 3rd edition of our book ‘We Need To Talk About The Funeral – 101 Ways To Celebrate And Commemorate A Life.  With one idea a page and many beautiful photos it’s a kind of ‘every home should have one’ book. “It has all the information you need. It is also rather inspiring.” Lesley Garner. Daily Telegraph

When you talk about your own funeral before it’s needed you save stress for your family. Death is so rarely discussed that most people feel at sea when it happens. We do “need to talk about the funeral”. Then you get a funeral that lovingly represents the person who died. It gives inspiration, comfort and good memories to those left behind.

 

We Need To Talk About The Funeral (3rd ed.) is available as a paperback for £14.99, or a pdf book for £5.99. To order your copy please email book@heartandsoulfunerals.co.uk and we will send you a free ‘Funeral & Farewell Wishes’ document to accompany it.
