A radical undertaker, Callender challenges the idea that traditional high-street funeral directors are the only option, championing authentic, meaningful rituals for both the dead and the living.
In What Remains, he shares his maverick approach to the final rite of passage. He’ll be in conversation with Ruth
Sidgwick - independent celebrant for birth, relationships, and death - who believes every ceremony should reflect
the individual it honours. Be prepared for an unflinching, heartfelt, and sometimes surprisingly funny conversation
about death, dying, and the art of saying goodbye.
