Awards revamped for 2021
Looking ahead to The Independent Funeral Director Business Awards 2021
Golden Charter’s annual celebration of the independent sector will be back next year, but not under the familiar banner of the Funeral Planner of the Year Awards.
As announced in SAIFInsight’s September issue, the first ever Independent Funeral Director Business Awards will recognise achievements in funeral planning, as well as a broad range of areas including entrepreneurship, innovation and community spirit.
Golden Charter’s Director of Sales, Mark Moran, explained: “While our ability to hold an in-person awards event this year remains unknown, most likely tied to the success and timing of the COVID-19 vaccine roll out, we can absolutely confirm that we will be celebrating our independent funeral director partners no matter what.
“As well as presenting the longstanding awards for funeral planning, we will be looking to identify high achievers in a range of areas. The events of the last year put a spotlight on the vital role played by funeral directors like never before and we want to take the opportunity to pay tribute to the amazing services being provided up and down the country.”
More information on the new awards and how to enter will be released in the coming months, and for now Golden Charter is encouraging businesses to start thinking about how they can demonstrate their strengths through customer testimonials, photos and more.
