Croianna Bradshaw

My name is Croianna Bradshaw (my first name is pronounced ‘Cree-anna’).
I conduct Humanist and non-religious funerals, memorials and baby naming’s around the South East and occasionally overseas.

I have many years’ professional experience of working with people to devise ritual marking the most important events in their lives. I have become aware through this work that in our increasingly secular society, the lack of meaningful and dignified ritual is a real problem.

My aim as a celebrant is above all to allow those without a religious faith to have ceremonies as powerful, beautiful and memorable as any other. I believe this is something which we all deserve.

Working closely and carefully with each family, I aim to make every ceremony unique. My job is to use my experience and skills to help you find the most meaningful way to express and share your time of change, be it a memorial, a new arrival, or the loss of a loved one.

Funerals can, of course, positively celebrate a life well lived, but must also allow those who are bereaved to express their grief as part of the transition to a place where the memories can be preserved and treasured.
