"If you are recently bereaved, then my thoughts are with you",    Anne

 

"Together, we will create a ceremony that reflects your wishes, and resonates with those who attend to celebrate the unique journey of the person who has died, reflecting their personality, values, and the moments that mattered most",    Anne

"To say goodbye to a loved one

is one of the most difficult things we have to face … …

a deeply personal and emotional experience, it can be overwhelming.

The memory of your loved one will remain in your hearts and minds,

as you say farewell to their physical presence:

the only thing you can’t keep"

"I am here to advise and support you through this"    Anne

 

 

 

 

 

"Hi, I'm Anne"

"As a semi-retired NHS Mental Health Nurse, I have had the privilege of working with individuals, families, and significant others during their times of grief, loss, and distress

It has been an honour and a humbling experience to dedicate 38 years to serving Older Adults and providing End of Life care

As a life-long Humanist, it was a natural progression to become a Humanist Funerals Celebrant

My aim is to create something unique, creative and beautiful to say farewell at this important part in someone's life; to achieve a professional and empathic tone of commemoration and celebration"    Anne

My aim

"I am dedicated to providing compassionate and unique service throughout Derbyshire, South Yorkshire and North Nottinghamshire.

The loss of a loved one is an incredibly difficult time,

and I strive to support families in creating meaningful tributes that reflect the unique lives of those they have lost.

I will walk alongside families every step of the way, offering guidance and support tailored to your individual needs.

I  believe that a well-crafted ceremony can help to bring comfort and healing, and I approach each service with care and respect.

Whether it's a Funeral Ceremony, a Memorial Service, Scattering of Ashes Ceremony or pre-planning for the future, my goal is to ensure that every farewell is a personal and heartfelt tribute"     Anne .
