Being a celebrant

A Little About Me...

Helen Barrington Portrait (1 of 1).jpg

Living in the New Forest with the sea on one side and the forest on the other, I don’t think I could find a better place to call home.

 

I spent my early career performing in the theatre and my love of music, literature and writing has continued throughout my life.

More recently, I have been working in the care industry with the elderly and with bereaved families, supporting them through life’s most difficult decisions. It was here that I found my interest in the work of the celebrant. So often I attended funerals where the life of the person who had died was not the focus of the occasion.

 

With research, I found that many people felt as I did. They wanted an opportunity to have a warm and meaningful funeral ceremony which truly reflected the life of their loved one.

 

As a civil celebrant, I am now creating services which tell a unique and personal story of the life that has been lived.

 

I hold an NOCN Diploma in Funeral Celebrancy and I am a member of the IoCF
