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 and advice at what can be a difficult time.
Our funeral plan is available to UK residents aged 18 and over, 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.
For more information, please download our funeral plans brochure.
Looking to The Future
The funeral arrangements are made in accordance to your wishes. This will include a burial or cremation, the coffin can be chosen and even designed by yourself.
Funeral costs are ever-increasing and with the funeral paid at the current price, your family can be relieved of any financial worry at such a distressing time.
You can unburden your family from the responsibility of arranging a funeral, which can be a relief for your loved ones to know that you have already organised the funeral which will be carried out to your wishes.

We aim to provide outstanding financial security for your money. All funeral plan pre-payments are held securely in an individual whole-of-life assurance policy for your peace of mind.
