Celebrating one year since we launched Scotland's first not-for-profit funeral directors. Just for today: Simple, Dignified, Caking. And always: Simple, Dignified, Caring. caledoniacremation.org.uk/testimonials/ #socialenterprise #scotland #yourfuneralyourway
@drkathrynmannix If you base yourself in Queenstown, from there you could also do the Milford Sound scenic flight and boat trip. Think it's about 4 hours all up. And not far from Queenstown is Arrowtown with the marvelous cinema, bar and bookshop called Dorothy Browns.
it may not be something everyone feels capable of and yet it is a beautiful concept #dyingtraditions
Breaking the silence: are we getting better at talking about death? theguardian.com/books/2018/may…
@MaxineM86396977 @HollysFunerals @FranFD1 @GreatFunerals Undertakers should'nt fear direct cremation, it is not a new idea, now more widely accepted. It is the client who can now more easily exercise a right to choose what they want. It should be embraced by FDs, if they want to be contemporary it will be the future choice for many...
@clairelouisetur @ndccharity @hfnuk We strongly object to the term 'paupers' funerals' @BBCNews Surely you can find less derogatory terminology for funerals paid for by local authorities on behalf of 'people who died alone, in poverty or without relatives?'
What can we learn from Billy Connolly and his attitude to death? We spoke to @ScotNational about it. thenational.scot/news/17338018.…
Sounds like a book worth finding brainpickings.org/2016/03/08/cry…
I second @drkathrynmannix's hope for 2019
So here's my 2019 hope for us all: -to know more about normal dying -to #begintheconversation in our families and friendship groups -to give each other permission and encouragement to discuss death -and then to get on with living

For any of you in the north west UK, great exhibition currently on at Chester Grosvenor museum …venormuseum.westcheshiremuseums.co.uk
A busy morning answering a stream of calls about how to make Advance Decisions to refuse treatment. Great to discover that so many people have put writing ADRTs on their #NewYearResolutions list - mostly healthy people planning ahead in case of future loss of capacity @AGoodDeath
Recommending people who want Advance Decisions to Refuse Treatment check out this website: mydecisions.org.uk
@drkathrynmannix @HollysFunerals @PersyPonts @GreatFunerals @10DowningStreet @livingwelldying @soulsmidwife @lizzie_doula @goodgrieftrust @Raphaelite_Girl Something like this exists in Scotland and although it was set up in order to make an impact on funeral poverty, it also has appealed to many on a purely philosophical level as more people seek to find their own ways of saying goodbye caledoniacremation.org.uk/testimonials/
@HollysFunerals @GreatFunerals Sadly that may well be the case with the large franchise FDs as there is less profit in it for them. However Caledonia Cremation in Scotland, is a not-for-profit CIC only offering direct cremation and it very much offers emotional support. caledoniacremation.org.uk/testimonials/
Poor show from @BBCNews this article is very misleading about the necessity of embalming, you can view an unembalmed body and, unless there are additional circumstances, a body is not a health and safety risk. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
