Funerals
Given the number of people in supermarkets or in each other’s gardens please urgently increase the number who can attend funerals to at least 20. They could easily sit separately if it was different families and long term
This grief process is hugely important

Why the contribution is important
For the grief process, for support to get through the early stages, there is so much
Loss not death already but when death comes families need to be together
If bubbles are being considered then surely funeral bubbles need to be allowed. Families separated are struggling but they will be back together. Families who lose a loved one will only ever get once change to participate in the ritual of a funeral and that chance
Won’t come around again

It’s not just the funeral but the travel : I decided that 16 hours travel for funeral wasn’t appropriate. I’m grateful to those who represented us all.

Due to distances some people would have to travel this could cause serious problems for tracking of viral infections.
If I maybe so bold as to suggest that in this case an email receipt from funeral director is sent to those whom are travelling an distance that they then forward to police Scotland along with their vehicles registration so as to aid track & trace also to show as necessary travel.
For those who cannot attend then virtual funerals via Skype or equivalent apps, tho this is not ideal it still would allow so sort of closure in a very difficult time.

Certainly at grave sides this can be easily managed by social distancing and at least people can pay their respects this way and also provides some comfort for their loss. Crematoriums can certainly limit the numbers and again have social distancing with measures in place to avoid immediate family lining up at exterior doorway to thank people for attending. Service rooms are more challenging for social distancing due to smaller rooms within some funeral homes and can understand limited numbers.
