Guest Speaker: Piers Lane is a funeral celebrant and bereavement support worker. With over 35 years experience since supporting his first bereaved family, he has conducted many hundreds of funerals and life celebrations, bringing him into daily contact with families and individuals at some of the hardest times of life. As well as the more usual end-of-life narratives, he has wide experience of supporting families through tragic, sudden and violent death, as well as the loss of babies, children and young people. Bereavement by suicide is an area of special interest and experience.
A few years ago, Piers started a group called Love & Loss which offers a safe space for people to talk with others about their experience of losing someone they love. He hosts the group in person locally to where he lives in West Yorkshire as well online for health and care workers in the north east and north Cumbria as part of the NHS wellbeing hub.
