Funeral Plans

The most thoughtful decision you could make.

Comfort, reassurance, freedom from worry and stress - these are benefits mentioned by almost everyone with a Golden Charter funeral plan. They're ordinary folk, just like you, perhaps, who have given some thought to the future.

More than 450,000 people in Great Britain have planned their funerals, over 140,000 of them with Golden Charter, the uk's leading funeral plan provider.

At times we may be concerned how our sons, daughters or even grand children will cope at the time of our own funeral. Consideration for others is the most common reason for buying a Golden Charter plan.

Peace of mind is the most common benefit. For with Golden Charter you know that your loved ones will be spared much of the burden of bereavement. You'll have specified every detail of the funeral in advance, selected the funeral director and taken care of costs.

A Guarantee that covers all your Independant Funeral Director's Services.

No matter how much the service of your funeral director may rise in cost in the year to come, neither you or your loved ones will be asked for a penny more for them. It's a guarantee that gives you peace of mind. You can be assured that your family will be spared what could be financial worry. There are some costs which are paid on your behalf by the funeral director. They are known as disbursements, and include the fees of doctors, clergy, cemeteries, crematoria, newspaper notices and memorials. These costs are not within the funeral directors control.

Financial Security.

You can be sure your money will always be secure. Your payment goes directly to the Golden Charter Trust, which holds the money for funerals on behalf of participating funeral directors. This is why the funeral director is able to provide a legally binding contract, which guarantees that your funeral arrangements will be carried out exactly as you wish when required.

The fund would still continue indefinitely, until every plan had been carried out and payments made to the funeral director.
