Arranging the Funeral
Our services to you start when you contact us, whether by telephone or calling personally; and extend often way beyond the day of the funeral.
On initial contact we will ask for preliminary details, whereupon if the deceased has died at home or in a private nursing home, we will advise the conveyance of the deceased to our Private Chapel.
We would then ask, at a time and place to suit the family, for the funeral director to call and arrange the funeral to a standard and procedure that meets the needs and requirements of those concerned.
Pre-planned Funerals
For many different reasons, including practical considerations and peace of mind, some people provide for their own future funeral arrangements.
Some see this option as a way of sparing someone else the decision and expense.
Once payment is complete (in lump sum or by instalments) then a certificate or bond is issued for lodging with the individual’s solicitor.
Guaranteed by a trust, the certificate covers the full cost of the funeral arrangements, whenever they are eventually required. (In say, 50 years time when the actual funeral takes place, non-prepaid funeral costs will have risen with inflation). We will be able to advise you of the different plans available.
