Pre-Paid Funeral Plans
About our pre-arranged funeral plans
More and more people are choosing to pre-arrange their funeral to reduce the emotional worry and anxiety for loved ones.
Our plans guarantee that our funeral director’s costs (as set out in the plan paperwork) are covered as long as we carry out the funeral and your requirements don’t change. You can also choose to make a contribution towards third party costs which are outside our control, such as the fees for cremation or burial, medical fees and payment to a minister or officiant.
Some of the benefits include:
Put financial provision in place in advance
Make your funeral wishes known and discuss them with your family
Select your funeral director
You can tailor your plan to suit your preferences and include any special wishes
Ensure your family have access to expert help and advice at a difficult time
No upper age limit
No complicated medical forms to complete
One of the main reasons that we recommend taking out one of our funeral plans is because they provide outstanding financial security for your money.

There is an additional cost for paying by instalments over 2, 3, 4 or 5 years. This additional cost is held within the plan and used for your funeral when the time comes.
