We are proud to share that Andrew Pinder of Ern Jensen Funerals (Victoria) was yesterday awarded Life Membership of Funerals Australia. An honour that reflects his outstanding service, dedication, and commitment to our profession.

His steady guidance, generosity, and unwavering support of members and the broader community have made a lasting and meaningful impact.

This recognition is a fitting tribute to the respect Andrew has earned across the industry.

Congratulations, Andrew—an incredibly well-deserved honour.

🤠 Boots & Buckles

Last night, the Funerals Australia National Convention seen delegates swap suits for boots and embrace the Western dress code at our convention dinner sponsored by InvoCare Memorial Parks & Gardens.

Cowboy hats, denim, fringe, and a whole lot of personality set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The atmosphere was electric, a perfect blend of fun, connection, and well-earned celebration.

From sideshow alley and dodgem cars to mini golf (thanks to Funeral Plan Management), the night was full of laughs, connection, and a little friendly competition.

A huge thank you to everyone who embraced the theme and made the night what it was.

Yeehaw!

Over the coming days, we look forward to meaningful conversations, valuable insights, and the opportunity to reflect on the important role we all play in supporting families with care, respect, and compassion.

Each year, members from across the country come together to learn from respected experts, share real-world experience, discuss challenges facing the sector and strengthen professional connections.

When someone dies, research shows that ceremony plays an important role in helping people process death. Seeing a coffin, hearing familiar music, sharing stories and gathering with others can provide clarity and meaning during grief.

These moments do not need to be elaborate. Simple rituals and shared presence can be enough.

Funerals create space for this. Do you agree?

Women contribute to funeral care in many ways, across many roles.

On International Women's Day, we recognise the women within Funerals Australia membership and across the sector who bring care, skill and leadership to this work, often without recognition.

From supporting families through grief, to leading teams, managing operations, educating others and advocating for better standards, their work is central to the profession.

Tag someone in the industry who deserves recognition. Let's celebrate them together.

There’s no single template for a funeral.

Some are traditional. Some look very different. Some are big gatherings, others are small and private. All of them are personal.

What matters is having the opportunity to pause, gather and say goodbye in a way that feels right. Everyone deserves that choice.

At Funerals Australia, we foster open conversations about how funerals, in whatever form they take, can bring healing and honour to those we love.

What kind of funeral would you like. Would it be traditional, or personalised?

We thought it timely to take a moment to remind everyone what Funerals Australia is here for.

Funerals Australia exists to support Australians through funerals and end of life with clear, trusted guidance. We work to strengthen professional standards across the funeral sector and to advocate for practical, fair regulation that puts families first.

We help Australians better understand funerals and the options available to them. We support funeral professionals through education, connection and shared standards. And we represent the sector with governments, regulators and media on issues that affect families and communities.
