What do funeral consultants do?

A funeral consultant will not only assist you in the planning of a special celebration of life for your loved one, but support you and your family as much as they can in coping with your grief. They are not grief counsellors, but can help you with advice and if necessary point you in the direction of a counsellor if required.
