In this episode Berni and Dinah talk about direct cremations. There has been an increase in these services and our concern is that the long-term implications are not really explained, or considered, when these are recommended.

Join us as we talk about what a direct cremation is, who to speak to about arranging one that feels caring and appropriate and what you can do to make sure those left behind have a chance to gather and express their shared grief.
