Funeral directors Most families chose to employ a funeral director to organise the funeral of a loved one, but this can be carried out independently. The funeral director will collect and move the body, arrange embalming and viewing of the deceased, provide a coffin, hearse and other elements. Some people do not wish to use a funeral director. This can be for a variety of reasons. They may feel that passing the body of a loved one over to strangers is wrong. Some feel that personally organising a funeral is their final tribute to the deceased person.

Food Safety inspections Barnet Council's team of Environmental Health Officers and Food Safety Officers has the right to enter and inspect any food premises and any food found on that premises at all reasonable hours.

We do not have to make appointments and will visit businesses on a programmed basis or because we have received a complaint. The frequency of our inspections will generally depend on potential food safety risks and how effectively they are controlled.
