We are planning for the imminent passing away of a very dear relative and plan to have the cremation at Rawdon; we would like to arrange to have a slideshow of photos either after or during the service. Funeral service doesn't have any contacts. Would anyone know of any photography/media services based in either Leeds/York area that might be able to help?
Thanks in advance.

So sorry to hear of your loss. I don't know much about slideshows for funerals but your best place to start might be with a company like this. They can put you onto freelancers if your job is too small for them to take on.

I went to a memorial service where photos were displayed but the family had organised this themselves and had just scanned old photos/negatives and then hired a digital projector to show them against a blank wall. This place used to hire out equipment if you want to go down that route.

I hope that the relative has said they would like to be cremated. During the service a slideshow/photos would feel wrong, personally, perhaps you could have it after to form a celebration of that person's life.

Wrong to you but perhaps not wrong to the family in question......
