Meet Kate Tym and Kate Dyer, the dynamic duo behind Kate and Kate Celebrants and Coffin Club UK, who are making waves in the world of funerals and celebrations. These remarkable women have not only founded the UK’s premier funeral education platform, Coffin Club UK, but they’ve also secured the top award for Best Funeral Information Provider at the Good Funeral Awards, not once but two years in a row!
Whether you’re wanting to start your own celebrant business; need to understand how to promote yourself or wanting to expand your knowledge then you’ve come to the right place.
After feeling disheartened with the funeral profession, and my role as a celebrant within it, I started to educate myself on more diverse and inclusive ways of holding funeral ceremonies. I had seen Kate and Kate speak at an event about Coffin Club, but at that time funerals weren’t my focus. It was now time to revisit what they offered and I am so glad that I did. Not only did I meet the fabulous Kates again, I heard, and saw, their passion for offering Celebrant-plus funeral ceremonies. I was inspired and can definitly see that this is the way forward for me, and the profession. Thank you to my cohort for their sharing and open conversations and for Kate, Kate and Winnie for the laughs and knowledge.
I’m so excited to be a Coffin Club Celebrant Plus Celebrant. I deliberated for ages over doing the course, but I’m so glad I finally did it! I was already a trained Celebrant but I now have a much deeper understanding of how we can improve the traditional funeral model, giving families the best and widest choices for their loved one’s final farewell. Feeling there was more to offer families than the twenty minutes at the Crematorium, I’m now confident there is a better way for those who want it.
My ambition is to work directly with families who want to take ownership of their funeral arrangements, recommending the very best funeral directors who want to take part in a progressive movement for change.
I had already attended several webinars led by the bundles of energy that are ‘the two Kates’. I was convinced by their passion, knowledge and drive to create a revolution in the world of funerals, and I’m excited to be a part of that movement for change. Viva la funeral revolucion!
