In our latest episode, we sit down with Carrie Weeks from A Natural Undertaking, an independent funeral service in Birmingham that is changing the way we think about funerals. Carrie shares her journey into the funeral industry and offers invaluable advice. Carrie, along with her co-founder Fran, has been on a mission for the past decade to offer families more meaningful and personalised funeral options.
We have discussed the evolution of funeral traditions and how societal changes, such as the establishment of the NHS and the professionalisation of death care, have distanced us from traditional death rituals. Today, many people seek to reconnect with these rituals in a way that feels more personal and meaningful.
Learn about the importance of asking the right questions, understanding your choices, and incorporating unique rituals that truly reflect the individuality of the deceased. Whether you’re planning a funeral or just curious about modern funeral practices, this episode is a must-listen.
