A workshop that looks behind the scenes at what funeral directors do for the families they look after before, during and after a funeral.

What really happens behind the scenes when someone dies? What role does a funeral director play in supporting families during one of the most difficult times in their lives?

This in person session offers an informative and compassionate look at the care and support funeral directors provide to the families they look after – before, during and after a funeral. It will explore the practical steps that take place when someone dies, as well as the values and ethos that guide how funeral professionals care for both the person who has died and the people who love them.

The session is designed to demystify the process, answer common questions, and provide a better understanding of the important role funeral directors play in supporting families through grief.
