Funeral Celebrant in Cottingham

Supporting families to say goodbye, your way.

I’m Pam Medhurst, I live in Cottingham, East Yorkshire and work with families across the region, to help you to say goodbye in the right way for you and your family.

Working with families across the region

As an experienced celebrant, I use my skills to listen to your family to help tease out what is right for you at a very difficult time in a family life.  Many families have never had to sort out a funeral before and are not sure who does what, what is ‘allowed’ or ‘not allowed’, and what might or might not be appropriate (if it’s right for you it’s appropriate!).

I help to take the stress out of this situation.  I cannot take the hurt away, but I can help to ease that hurt by allowing an open discussion to take place about what would suit your family for the ceremony. 

Say goodbye in a meaningful way

The ceremony that we co-create will be part of your memories, so let’s make it right. This can be as traditional or as quirky as you choose. 

I work with families to help you say goodbye in a meaningful way, that is right for your family.  That might look very different from Uncle Frank’s ceremony that you last went to.  I have hosted ceremonies where the crematorium was full- to-busting and equally one where there were just 2 sisters in attendance.  I am very used to hearing about, and helping, disjointed families!  I also encourage ceremonies in alternative locations, you don’t just have to hold a ceremony in a crematorium.
