Within 28 days Funeral Planning Services will send you a Funeral Plan Guarantee Certificate, confirming your plan details and the fact that there will be nothing more to pay for the services itemised. For instalment plan customers, your payment plan will be confirmed and the guarantee certificate will be issued when it is completed.

The plan comes complete with practical information for your relatives or executor on what they should do at the time of the funeral, your personal wishes for the funeral and where your important documents are kept. Everything is designed to make things as easy as possible for your family and friends.

Our pre-payment plans provide people with a caring, sensitive and cost-effective way to cover for their funeral expenses.

You can choose your own funeral arrangements from a number of options which have clearly specified fixed prices. The advantage of our pre-payment plans is that you can pay now at today’s price and beat inflation.

All payments are made directly into Funeral Planning Trust, a national fund which exists specifically to provide for funeral costs, with an independent custodian trustee.

Prices below includes £1025 for disbursements and £175 admin fee.

  • You can choose your own funeral arrangements, for your own peace of mind
  • You will save your family from having to make difficult decisions, trying to guess what you would have wanted, at such a distressing time
  • All options are clearly specified with fixed prices – or you can choose a personalised plan with every detail exactly as you want it

  • The service will be provided by your local Funeral Director
  • There is no age limit and there are no awkward health questions
  • You can make a once-only payment or pay by monthly instalments, whichever suits you

Choosing is easy… just select one of our comprehensive plans and note any special wishes on the application form, or discuss a fully personalised option with us, to meet your exact requirements.

Disbursements
Each plan includes a contribution towards other expenses, such as crematorium or cemetery fees, doctors’ fees for a cremation certificate and minister’s or church fees – these fees are known as “disbursements”. This is intended to cover most if not all of the usual disbursements, but please note that they are outside of our control and cannot be guaranteed. The amount included for disbursements will be stated on your funeral plan certificate and will be increased annually in line with the Retail Prices Index. You can include a larger (or smaller) contribution towards disbursements if you wish.

Personalised arrangements
A funeral is a very personal matter and many people have particular wishes. If none of these plans suit your requirements then please let us know and we will prepare a personalised plan just for you, to allow for whatever services you require.
