Recommendations for a humanist funeral celebrant/ woodland burial sites

Hello


My partner died recently and I am currently researching the kind of funeral we are going to plan for him. I wondered if anyone had had a good experience with a humanist celebrant relatively local to east dulwich that they could recommend? Also if anyone had a funeral director to recommend that dealt with green burial or woodland burial. Thankfully, I've not been to many funerals and don't have much of an idea where to start.


Thanks for your help.

I'm so sorry for your loss Hannah. Have you had a look at the British Humanist Association ? - https://humanism.org.uk/ceremonies/non-religious-funerals/ You can search for a celebrant on there. Lin Donnelly http://humanist.org.uk/lindonnelly/ conducted a Humanist wedding for us and of course that is a somewhat different occasion but I found her a warm and compassionate person. Good luck.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
