Hi, I'm Rebecca
Funerals and Memorial ceremonies are very special occasions. The majority of the funerals I conduct are still held in crematoria or cemeteries … but with the growing trend for direct cremation, more people are choosing to have a memorial ceremony in a beautiful and special location where we can tailor the occasion to your exact wishes, without the usual constraints. Alternatively, a natural burial ground is also a really personal and natural environment to hold a funeral ceremony. I believe an important aspect in all my services is to create a calm and appropriate atmosphere, where the ceremony words and music have been carefully chosen to ensure we are giving the person a great send off. I have experience of all sorts of funerals and memorials – having conducted well over 1,000 – and for all ages and situations, in a variety of locations.

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.
