Preparing for the future with a funeral plan can be a wise step. We offer what we believe to be the fairest funeral plans on the market which allow you to plan and pay for your own funeral in advance. With four plan levels available, you have the freedom to choose the best plan that meets your unique needs and budget.

How Do Pre-Paid Funeral Plans Work?

Pre-paid funeral plans allow you the opportunity to pay for your funeral in advance. Furthermore, you get to choose specific arrangements to ensure your funeral is exactly as you wish. Your requirements will be reflected in the total cost and the plan can be paid upfront in one lump sum or you can spread the cost over a term of up to 10 years.

All our plans are provided by Open Prepaid Funerals Limited. The plans on offer guarantee our services if you purchase the plan directly through us. Any money paid into the plan will go into a Trust fund, so you can have peace of mind that your money is protected.

Frequently Asked Questions About Funeral Plans

Your money is paid into the Open Prepaid Funerals Trust. The Trust is managed by a board of trustees and investment managers. As a result, your money is looked after and protected.

If you purchase the plan through us, you can secure our funeral director services.

Your plan can be tailored to your needs and the total cost will reflect the elements chosen.

If you move, Open Prepaid Funerals Limited will endeavour to place your plan with a nominated funeral director local to the area you have moved to.

You do not have to, however, we do recommend it. Adding contributions towards disbursements will mean any third party costs payable at time of need will be reduced as you will have already covered a proportion of the amount in your plan.
