My name is Valerie Vetter and this programme is about planning my funeral. I’ll be speaking to a range of people from end-of-life experts to funeral directors to celebrants so I can get a sense of what you need to consider when planning ahead.
On my journey, I visit Angela Edghill in the Irish Hospice Foundation to learn about 'good death' and Advance Care Directives, funeral directory Peter Maguire of Massey Bros, academic Dr Kevin Myers, civil funeral celebrant Padraic Cawley, green graveyard owner Colin McAteer, Mt Jerome Crematorium director Alan Massey, Fergus Jamieson of Celestis and Katrina Spade of Recompose.
