Inflation busting price rise by local crematorium. 😡
Most popular service days increased in price the most.☹️
Never mind cost of living crisis- we need to talk about the cost of dying crisis.
@MartinSLewis
Why do you not allow people to reply to the things you put out on social media @mimsdavies ?
From an endorsement to mugs ☕️ something to read from @MrHarryCole with your morning coffee ☕️
If you are saying that you shouldn’t have to pay to view a funeral livestream - someone needs to tell the Surrey and Sussex Crematorium.
Funerals should be more accessible to people without having to even more for it.
Profits before people.
Seen a social media link to a #funeral service livestream? As seen on @BBCBreakfast please check first before clicking. You shouldn't have to pay to view a funeral live stream & official links will be provided via the funeral director to the #bereaved family.
Hi @jmdfield hope all good with you.
Given advances in refrigeration technology it feels like embalming should be the exception not the norm.
What percentage of people in your care are embalmed?
Thanks
Hi @NAFDPresident hope all good with you.
Embalming feels like it should always be the exception not the norm.
Any thoughts as to why circa 55% of people are embalmed after death?
Thanks
So dogs aren’t allowed in polling stations…. 🐶🦴
They are always welcome at Bridee Whyte Funeral Home. ❤️🐾❤️
They are part of the family and so far have all behaved impeccably at services. 🐕🦺🐶❤️
Hi @MartinSLewis you should do a piece on how to benefit from changing funeral plans.
Cashing in current plans often worth many £000s and choosing a less expensive option that is available these days.
Funerals are changing and people can benefit from this.
Happy to chat.
According to the @CMAgovUK there are circa 250 funeral businesses with over 5 branches that have failed to comply with the law.
Are @NationalSAIF and @NAFD_UK aware of these firms and what actions will be taken (if any)?
Thank you for @Zoom for being a sponsor of the @NationalSAIF AGM this weekend.
Errr nope, that’s not correct.
The organisation that represents over 900 independent funeral directors have refused to make remote access available for those not able to make it.
Not inclusive.
Thank you to Ecclesiastical Planning Services for once again becoming an AGM Platinum sponsor. Find out more funeralplans.co.uk/about-us/ #saifagm2024
The presentation will take place but you can only see it if you attend.
There is no remote access, there has been no effort to help members who can’t travel, so fully paid up membership does not include a zoom link or anything similar.
Dreadful.
A platinum sponsor…. But you can’t organise for a remote access to your AGM.
Fully paid up members of @NationalSAIF must attend in person or they can’t be part of it.
This is poor at best.
Thank you to our AGM 2024 Platinum sponsor @GoldenCharter ! Find out more goldencharter.co.uk/ #saifagm2024
The funeral industry should make Funeral Services much more accessible to people.
Weekend and Evening services at no extra cost.
We do that for our families.❤️

An article I wrote for The Idler Magazine in which I take a well earned pop at Direct Cremation.

Hi @mimsdavies hope you’re well. It would be really nice if you could come and visit our Funeral Home in Haywards Heath.
We opened to help give local people an affordable funeral option.
We care for families at their lowest ebb and create send offs that are unique and special
Excellent read and agree 100%.
Big collections of expensive cars, somber dressing, heads bowed and clothed in black.
Society had moved on.
People have moved on.
The Funeral industry needs to change and do things better. More personal. More affordable. More celebratory.
Poppy Mardall founded Poppy’s in 2012, driven by the belief that funerals could and should be better. More than a decade later, we've grown, but remain true to the same values. Hear from our founder about how Poppy's began.
