Down to Earth has shared a new guided form to help people record their funeral wishes in advance.
Have your say in the final celebration of your life.
Organising a funeral is an expensive and often complicated process. Writing down your funeral wishes can be a huge help to your next of kin, even if you don’t mind what happens.
‘Your final celebration is about what matters to you. Words, music and actions can be far more powerful than expensive cars or coffins.’
Down to Earth – Funeral Planning Wishes
You can use this form to record your wishes for the service and any other information people should be aware of, such as pensions or funeral plans.
Make sure to tell someone where it is kept and consider giving them a copy.
