Lindsay de Wal - Compassionate and Personalised Funeral Ceremonies

Hello, I'm Lindsay de Wal (formerly van Dijk), and I offer humanist and non-religious funeral ceremonies designed to provide a personal and meaningful farewell for your loved one. My goal is to create a heartfelt tribute that honors the unique life of the deceased while providing comfort and support to those left behind.

What I Offer:

- Personalised Tributes: I meet with family and friends to learn about the deceased, ensuring the ceremony captures their unique journey and spirit.

- Practical Guidance: I provide advice on practical matters, such as the committal process, to help you navigate this challenging time.

- Music and Reading Suggestions: I listen to your preferences and suggest meaningful music and readings to enhance the ceremony.

- Bespoke Ceremony Writing: I craft a unique and fitting ceremony script, presenting a copy to the family and friends as a keepsake.

- Warm and Compassionate Leadership: I lead the ceremony with warmth, compassion, and respect, ensuring a dignified and heartfelt farewell.

If you would like me to conduct a humanist ceremony, please feel free to contact me. Once we agree to proceed, I will coordinate directly with the funeral director regarding my involvement and fees.

Warm regards,

Lindsay de Wal

Operating throughout England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands, we deliver authentic, tailor-made and heartfelt ceremonies for life’s key moments. They are always inclusive and welcoming, regardless of the beliefs of those attending.

You can trust Humanist Ceremonies celebrants: We are DBS-checked, fully insured, and regularly peer reviewed for quality assurance. We are committed to a code of conduct, and have a transparent and robust complaints process in the rare case of a problem. We all pay a monthly fee to Humanists UK to further support the work of the charity, and are part of a regional network for like-minded celebrants for support and learning.

Humanist funerals

Humanist funerals, memorials and ash ceremonies are a fitting way to honour a unique life with warmth, sensitivity and meaning, but without reference to religion or an afterlife. They put the story of the person who has died at the heart of the ceremony, paying tribute to them and the legacy they leave, and provide an opportunity to bring people together, not just to share sadness but to celebrate a life lived.
