I have helped hundreds of individuals to complete practical End of Life planning who have described my approach as ‘compassionate, caring and inspiring’. I also run group courses from my welcoming house in Camberwell, South East London, regular local Death Cafes and am a popular speaker for community groups and corporates. My ambition is to make End of Life Planning as commonplace as Birth Planning for people of all ages.
We have all heard nightmare stories of anguish that can arise when people do not have wills, powers of attorney or advance decisions in place. Families can be torn apart and scars can last for generations. As an accredited end of life plan facilitator, I will support you with creativity, empathy and professionalism, to put together a modern, comprehensive end of life plan. This will give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your wishes are documented and shared, and save friends and family time, money and most of all stress.
My career running a range of charities, most recently the Charterhouse almshouse charity, combined with personal experience and extensive research and training in Death Literacy led to my founding End of Life Matters. I am a Trustee at St Christopher’s Hospice, where I also volunteer running courses for carers and providing talk and massage therapy. I love being a member of Companion Voices singing for people at the end of their lives.
My training includes the Foundation End of Life Doula training course with Living Well Dying Well and the Before I Go method to help people plan ahead. I am also a fully qualified Massage Therapist and have completed courses in Counselling, Safeguarding and Working with people living with Dementia. My calm approach is supported by a regular meditation and yoga practice. DBS checked.
