“Best show ever!” More than 4,500 pass through the doors at Stoneleigh as the National Funeral Exhibition returns Over three sunny days at Stoneleigh in June, the funeral profession came together to do business, explore new ideas, create partnerships and spend time with colleagues as friends as the 2022 National Funeral Exhibition opened its doors. Over the course of three days, more than 4,500 people came through the doors of the show, with visitors from Europe, the US, New Zealand and South America joining UK funeral professionals from all four home nations for the event. There were seminar sessions running in both the lecture and product showcase theatres and 62 | FuneralTimes
demonstrations happening on stands across both halls. A debate organised by the Deceased Management Advisory Group on lessons learned from the pandemic, included insight into the experience of the US funeral profession and discussion on how to preserve the strong working relationship built with Government and what the funeral profession needs to be able to successfully deliver its frontline role in future major incidents or national emergencies. The brand new NFE Dining Club offered exhibitors and visitors a chance to enjoy the sunshine as they took a break from the show
