We believe the funeral industry must be regulated as there are a lack of government regulations for setting up a funeral business, meaning owners don't need to meet specific requirements.

Require headstones to be laid flat & legislate for regular safety checks
Require all headstones to be laid flat and properly secured to the ground. We think there should be rules set out in legislation about how headstones are safety checked and the frequency of these checks.
Make sonographers a protected, regulated profession with qualifications & checks
Make it a legal requirement that anyone practicing in the UK as a sonographer must have passed accredited exams and hold relevant qualifications. They must be registered with an accredited registration body and undergo regular assessments while practicing.
Give all parents the legal right to participate in their child’s funeral
I want Parliament to pass a law to give both parents the right to attend their child’s funeral unless legally prevented, and for Government to provide statutory guidance to funeral directors to protect these rights.
Require registration and regulation of all private domiciliary carers in England
We ask the Government to require all English domiciliary carers to undergo mandatory registration, enhanced DBS checks & minimum training requirements. English private carers are not currently required to register with a regulatory body, undergo enhanced DBS checks or meet minimum training standards
National guidelines to standardise burial fees and ban non-resident surcharges
We want the Government to issue national guidance to local authorities to ensure fair and consistent burial charges across the country and remove “non-resident” surcharges.
