I am a celebrant for life events, memorials and funerals. In this role, I bring spiritual and mental well-being together with a natural care for our planet. I unite my applied skills in sustainability with my faith and works in a client-centred way, understanding each person as unique and individual. Taking a non-judgemental and inclusive approach I extend a warm welcome to everyone attending one of my events.
Being inclusive and encouraging diversity is a part of who I am as a person. It isn’t an add on for me. Come rain or shine, summer or winter, this is who I am. This includes being an up-stander for LGBTQ+ rights and being proactive in working to include. I am neurodivergent and I take pride in my services for the Actually Autistic Community. All faiths, beliefs, and cultures are welcome and we celebrate together who we intrinsically are.
As a former Church of Scotland Minister, I have over 25 years of experience in conducting funerals and can draw on many resources, inter-faith, non-faith based or Christian imagery and prayers. It is about finding the right words for your loved one, and being comfortable with your personal and unique way to say goodbye.
