About Me

Emma Pannell 

I am a trained Independent Funeral Celebrant, based in Gravesend, Kent, and I serve a wide surrounding area. 

My work as a Funeral Celebrant is the most rewarding role I've had. My mum was a Church of England vicar, and her love of helping families with meaningful funerals is something I connect very strongly with. 

As an Independent Celebrant, I associate with no particular faith, and the inclusion of any traditional religious elements is entirely optional and the choice of the family. 

My firm belief is that a personalised funeral, carried out with care, concern and consideration, can help in a profound and healing way with the process of grieving for, but commemorating the life of the person who has died.  

You can contact me directly, by phone or email, or you can ask your funeral director to get in touch with me as part of the wider funeral arrangements.  Email: celebrant@emmapannell.co.uk:  Tel:  07912 036258
