Pre-arranging a funeral
We often have people contact us to arrange their own funeral, because they would like the peace of mind knowing that everything will be done as they wish, or to avoid the need for their relatives to have to make decisions at a difficult time. We are happy to keep these details on file until they are required.

Pre Paid funerals

In addition to pre-arranging funerals, we work in partnership with Golden Charter to provide you with a simple way to plan ahead.

A funeral plan is an easy way to arrange the funeral you want in advance; to specify your wishes and pay for the funeral director’s services included in your plan. As clients often tell us, that can bring peace of mind to you and your family.

Everyone has different needs when it comes to funeral planning, so we make sure the plans we offer are as flexible as possible. When you get in touch, we’ll be happy to discuss your funeral requirements and tailor a plan to suit you. Golden Charter Plans are available to all UK residents, regardless of age or state of health.

A plan from Golden Charter also includes an allowance towards third party costs. These are essential, non-funeral director services such as the cremation or burial fees, plus the minister or officiant’s fee to perform the service. The value of the allowance included in your plan may grow over time. There will only be more to pay at the time of the funeral if the third party costs exceed the allowance when you buy your plan, or if the costs increase by more than the growth of your plan.

If you would like more information about how a Golden Charter funeral plan could work for you, please get in touch.
