A funeral plan is a safe, simple way to plan ahead and help secure peace of mind, for you and your family. And whatever your reason for planning ahead, with our partners Golden Charter, you’re in the best of hands – that’s a promise.

Five great reasons to plan ahead:

1. You’ll fix your funeral director’s costs at today’s prices

And that’s important. You might be surprised to hear that the average cost of a funeral has gone up by 55% in less than 10 years*. This means it’s possible that, when the time comes, your savings or over 50s insurance policy may not cover the cost of your funeral.

2. Help protect your family from worry and expense

A funeral plan isn’t just an easy way to beat rising prices. It’s also a chance to do something amazing for your family at a difficult time. With a plan in place, you can help protect your family from money worries and stressful decisions about funeral arrangements in the future.

3. Arrange your funeral, your way

One of the best things about a Golden Charter plan is that you can choose the send-off you want. When the time comes, your funeral wishes will be taken care of by your chosen funeral director. It means you and your family can be certain of a truly personal service when it matters most.

4. The reassurance of a trusted local funeral director

With something as important as your funeral, it’s important to know you and your family are in the best of hands.

5. The security of a leading funeral plan provider

Golden Charter is one of the UK’s largest funeral plan providers, owned by the people who understand your needs best – independent funeral directors**. Over 800,000 people have already trusted them with their funeral arrangements***. It means your plan offers the best of both worlds – the personal service and care of a trusted local funeral director, and the reassurance of a leading plan provider.
