About our pre-paid funeral plans


Planning ahead for your funeral is one of the most thoughtful and caring things you can do. Some people never get round to discussing funeral wishes with their loved ones, which can lead to all sorts of worry and anxiety when the time comes.

 

Taking out a funeral plan is a simple and straightforward way to remove this worry, and it can provide real financial benefits too. Some of the other benefits include:

 

·          Pre-arrange the details of your funeral and record any special wishes, such as hymns, music choice                 and any other personal touches you would like your plan to include

·          Make financial provision for your funeral

·          Choose your funeral director in advance

·          Ensure your family has access to expert help at what can be a difficult time.

 

Our funeral plan is available to UK residents and there are no complicated medical forms to complete. You can also appoint a nominated representative who we will keep informed about your plan, according to your instructions.

 

Our plans cover our costs (as specified in the plan paperwork) as long as we carry out the funeral and your requirements don’t change. You can also make a contribution towards third party costs, such as the cremation fees. These costs are outside of our control.

How does it work?

Our pre-paid funeral plans allow you to make financial provision and specify your own funeral arrangements in advance. This means that when the time comes, the cost of our direct services as listed in your plan details have been provided for and those you leave behind are not left with the burden of making funeral decisions on your behalf. You can also choose to make a contribution towards third party costs.

By coming to see us or requesting a home visit, we can sit down with you, discuss your preferred funeral arrangements and create a plan for you. Once your plan is in place, all the necessary details of your funeral are recorded so that when our services are required, those you leave behind know your wishes. Our pre-paid funeral plans are an effective way to take responsibility for your own funeral arrangements and make financial provision for the inevitable costs.
