Quaker Social Action (QSA) was involved in a video shown on The Guardian website last week highlighting the misery of funeral poverty. The film covers the harrowing journey of Amanda as she tries to arrange her son Rahim’s funeral. After days spent chasing funeral homes and faced with unaffordable funeral costs, sometimes reaching £10,000, she sought advice from QSA who helped her secure funding.
