Prepaid Funeral Plans
Planning for later life is never easy, but it can be comforting and reassuring to know that you have taken care of your arrangements, including your funeral. By taking the time now, you can provide both financial and practical help for your loved ones in the future.
What is a Prepayment Funeral Plan?
A funeral pre-payment plan is what its name implies allowing you to pay now for a funeral in the future.
Our plans cover our costs and as long as we carry out the funeral and your requirements do not change your family will not be asked to pay a penny more toward our costs, regardless of how long you live or what happens to funeral director’s costs in the meantime.
This guarantee also applies to our fully inclusive services, although you should expect to pay a surcharge to protect us against future price inflation outside our control.
Where you select a non-inclusive product you can also include an allowance toward third party costs such as cremation or burial fees.

What happens to my money?
Our plans give you exceptional financial security for your money. Unlike some plans, every penny of the full value of your plan (excluding the initial management fee) is held securely in a whole of life assurance policy and ring-fenced to pay for your funeral when the time comes.
The money is made immediately available at the time of need and the funds cannot be used for anything other than your funeral for total peace of mind.
Your funeral plan funds are held in guaranteed whole of life assurance policies with a life assurance company that is authorised by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) and regulated by the PRA and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Funeral plans are not presently regulated by the PRA or the FCA but our plan provider is registered with the Funeral Planning Authority (FPA).
