Interview with Paul Brennan on Nights, Radio NZ – June 2016
Talk funerals and everyone has an interesting question – Paul asked about the possibility of burying his father in his garden, whether funerals are value for money and if funeral ceremonies become ‘cheesy’ and contrived.
Have a listen and then we strongly recommend you do your homework – take some time to think about your funeral choices, have the discussion with family and friends – then get on with living.

A Natural Undertaking | Fiona King | TEDxWellington
The overall theme was trust and our idea worth spreading was to encourage families to take ownership of their funerals and not underestimate their ability to be ‘hands-on’.
We find once a family is empowered with informed options they gain confidence and began to ask ‘Can we?’ – Can we build our own coffin? Can we use flowers from our own garden? Can we use our own vehicle? – Yes, you can.
We offered our insights and ‘top tips’ for arranging a funeral – reminding families to; slow down, involve children and that there is no normal.
