Funerals Australia is the leading voice of the funerals sector, guiding those who work within it and shaping how it is understood by the community.
We believe that a funeral is more than a goodbye – it’s a way to celebrate a life, share love, and begin the journey toward healing.
For over 90 years, our members have been a guiding hand to communities, helping them through the challenging time of farewelling a loved one with care and understanding. Our members support families to create a funeral that feels right for them, no matter their story, culture, or traditions.
Our members are dedicated to providing warm, professional and personalised services during life’s toughest moments.
Funerals Australia encourages conversations about life, love, and the importance of creating meaningful funerals.
We’re here to help you every step of the way – guiding you through loss with warmth and understanding
Funerals Australia upholds uncompromising standards and deep knowledge to promote ethical and high-quality practices.
Preplanning your farewell opens the door to meaningful conversations about death and dying, giving you the chance to express what matters most. Whether it’s your choice between burial or cremation, a favourite song, or simply what you don’t want, sharing your wishes can give your family clarity and confidence when the time comes. Have the conversation now because it cannot be had once you’re gone.
People need time to mourn the loss of family and friends. A meaningful farewell provides people with an important place to share in their grief and help the living say goodbye.
One of the most difficult situations adults have to face is telling children that someone they love has died.
Usually, it’s accepted funerals are held in a church or chapel, but did you know these are not the only locations you can honour a life.
It’s not morbid – it’s love: Why more Australians are planning their own farewells
