January often feels like the longest month of the year, and today - Blue Monday - recognises the sadness felt by many of us in these cold, dark days. If you're also grieving, this month may feel overwhelming.

However, if grief is weighing you down, bringing together friends and family right now could be a way to support both yourself and others sharing your loss. Organising a celebration of life for your loved one can be a way of sharing memories that bring you joy and happiness, and recognising the impact they had on your own life in a positive way.

We've put together some simple, heartfelt ideas where you can celebrate the life of your loved one and support each other through this difficult time.

FAQs: What support is available for planning the funeral?

Our knowledgeable team will assist with all of the essential funeral arrangements. The cremation itself, transport of your loved one, support filling out the required paperwork and arrangments for the funeral service are all included in the price of the plan.

We can also offer additional services at the time of need, such as printed service stationery and In Memory Pins. However, these additional extras are not included in the Funeral Service price.

Thank you to Trevor for this lovely review on Trustpilot. We're delighted you got all the information you needed.

"From the minute I telephoned I felt comfortable, cared for and confident in the person taking the call. There was no pressure but the plan was explained clearly and any questions I had answered in a way that assured me that direct cremation was the answer to my needs."

The anniversary of a loved one's death holds different meaning for everyone, and choosing to commemorate the day in some way is personal, depending on your own background, culture or religion.

If you do want to plan something, it might be as simple as gathering the family together to share memories. Or, if you are thinking of something unique, consider planting a memorial tree or bush.

Read our article for more suggestions of ways to commemorate your loved one.

Arranging the details for a funeral is a very personal and emotional time, and we're privileged to be able to support you at this difficult time. Thank you, Gregory, for this lovely feedback; our team will be pleased to know we made a difference.

"M went above and beyond to help us with all things needed for a beautiful service. We requested some things outside of the norm and she produced everything with class and ease. I am so impressed with how she organized and reorganized the music, provided more than one box for transporting ashes along with the casket for permanent holding. There were so many gentle and supportive moments on the phone with her. She definitely really cared about us and our service."

"Although you don't get to have a crematorium service, we have family who live abroad, and getting everybody to attend at the same time would have proved very difficult. So, we waited for the ashes to be returned and arranged a wake at a time that suited the vast majority of the family. The fact that two of my siblings are now considering this type of arrangement speaks volumes. Distinct Cremations was a positive experience for our family."

Thank you, H, for this kind review. Unattended cremations offer an alternative choice of funerals for families, and we're pleased it helped you to gather and say a farewell to your loved one together.

"I had been thinking of planning my funeral for a while but couldn't afford it. I'd seen an advert for Distinct Cremations and went for it. I applied online (so easy to do) and spread the cost over 5 years. So now my family doesn't have to plan anything or find silly amounts of money. Best thing I've done in a few years. Thank you, Distinct Cremations."

Planning a funeral ahead of time means you pay today's prices, and save against future cost increases, giving you peace of mind.
Thank you, Kerry, for this great review.
