By planning ahead and recording your wishes, you'll save your next of kin and loved ones the stress of trying to second-guess what you would have wanted.

A funeral is an occasion for your family and friends to express their grief and celebrate your life. Fill in as much or as little as you feel able to. There are no right or wrong answers, and you can change your wishes at any time.

“Thinking through what you want, and recording those thoughts, is one way to take the pressure off those closest to you. Then they can feel confident that they are doing the right thing.”

David Gallagher, Managing Director, DipFD
