Hello and welcome.
I'm a celebrant accredited with Humanist UK and feel incredibly honoured when people ask me to officate the ceremony for their family member or loved one.
I lead ceremonies to mark all significant life events- Funerals, Celebration of Life, Memorials, Weddings, Vow Renewals and Namings.
I was drawn to humanism as I believe in the goodness of people and share the humanist ideology of peace, dignity, equality, freedom and respect
Humanist ceremonies tend to appeal to everyone, regardless of their religious beliefs or none, as they are inclusive and bring people together.. You don't have to be a humanist to enjoy a humanist ceremony
As a humanist funeral celebrant I take great pride in helping families to say goodbye in a way that feels appropriate and personal to them and in a manner that reflects the life, the personality and the wishes of their loved one.
Having now been a celebrant for just over 5 years, I have worked alongside many families. Whatever the circumstances I plan and create the right ceremony for you and your loved one. I am sensitive, compassionate and non-judgemental to the wishes of everyone involved.

Michelle was absolutely perfect in what was an extremely tragic time for us. She was a great comfort to us all and she spoke the most lovely words about our beautiful son. You would think she'd always known him. She helped ease our pain tremendously and the service was just lovely.
Dear Michelle, a huge thank you from us all. It was touching, personal, funny and above all painted and all round picture of our amazing dad. It was exactly as we wished for, thanks to you and your empathy. Everyone said it was a beautiful service, with many saying they want a humanist funeral when they go. You made a tough moment joyful and inspiring. Many thanks x
