As you are aware we are currently experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic and under the COVID-19 disaster management Act, funeral procedures have been altered to meet the demands set by the government.
The new laws enforced consist of the following:

- 2. The Clare Estate and Verulam crematorium will not allow more than 20 people per funeral. Compulsory contact tracing forms must be filled and submitted to the crematorium
- 3. People attending the funeral are to wear masks, sanitise their hands and practise social distancing.
In light of the above we have Covert Protection Services outsourced by Phoenix Funerals in which their services include:
- 1. 2 x COVID- 19 approved security guards provided to sanitise and screen temperatures of the attendees of the funeral.
- 2. Security guards will monitor social distancing and ensure all attendees are wearing masks.
- 3. Security guards will fill in the compulsory form for the crematorium and present it to the crematorium officials.
- 4. They will perform duties mentioned above at the crematorium.
- 5. Security guards will be at the funeral venue and santise areas that were used for the funeral.

When my dad passed away we didn’t know that handling funeral arrangements would cost so much. Afterwards, we heard about Phoenix Funerals and took a funeral policy for my mother. We were so pleased with the manner in which they took care of everything, from the hearse to the cremation fees
