Our funeral plans

What kind of funeral plan would you like to have?

A direct cremation
from only £1,885.00

A simple cremation, without an attended service, so your loved ones can remember you their way.

A guaranteed price that includes everything outlined in the plan, so there are no unexpected costs.

You’ll be cared for with dignity by an independent, local funeral director, every step of the way.

A traditional funeral
from only £3,130.00

A traditional burial or cremation – with a service – so loved ones can come together to say goodbye.

Four plans to choose from, giving you the flexibility to plan a send-off that reflects your wishes.

Everything is arranged by a local, independent funeral director, supporting your family when the time comes.

Payment options

When it comes to paying for your funeral plan we offer three different, flexible payment options, designed to cater for every budget.
1

Single payment option

With a one-off, single payment your funeral plan will be activated right away, giving you immediate cover for instant peace of mind.

2

12 monthly payment option (at no extra cost)

Pay a deposit from only £49, then make 12 monthly payments at no extra cost. You're fully covered once all payments are made.

3

Instalment payments

Pay a deposit from as little as £49, then spread the cost of your plan between 2 and 15 years (2 and 10 years for the Direct Cremation Plan)*. An instalment charge is included based on the term you select and is included in the overall cost of your funeral plan. If you die at any time after you’ve made at least 12 payments, the benefit of your plan will be provided, with no further sums to be paid.

*For the instalment payment option you must be aged under 78 at the start date of your plan and pay the total cost by your 80th birthday. Please refer to the Key Features and Terms and Conditions document for eligibility of each payment option.
