✨Meet the team✨

In the spotlight this week is our Trainee Embalmer Lizzy.

Lizzy has been with us since August 2025, but has grown up in the funeral industry. She has experienced all aspects of the industry, but has found her passion in the back of house area, taking care of your loved ones behind the scenes.

Lizzy’s main role is to prepare and dress your loved ones for their funeral and ensure they are looking their best when families visit our chapels of rest. She has been training to be a qualified embalmer for the past 2 years and is well on her way to passing her qualification.

All of the team at Preston Ireland Bowker wish Lizzy all the best in her final stages of qualifying and we know she will smash it out of the park!
