We plan our careers. We plan our holidays. We try to prepare for many things throughout our life. But there's one important matter that most of us fail to get ready for.

It's something that's certain to come and cannot be avoided...

Death.

According to one source 27% of adults set up a prepaid funeral or cremation plan ¹ .

This can create a problem for their family and loved ones.

Because the time comes and planning is no longer an option, many may end up stressed with years of debt because of all the costs on their shoulders.

In recent years the cost of funerals has risen to unprecedented levels.

In fact, the cost of the average funeral in the UK has increased 5% since 2022. In 2023, the total cost of dying was an alarming £9,658 ¹ .

But all these insanely high costs could have been avoided.

How?

By preparing for a funeral or cremation ahead of time using a prepay funeral plan. It's a lot easier than you think and only takes a couple minutes to do. 

It may not be a motivating task, but it's worth it. And by not taking care of this in advance, it may have serious financial consequences and may cause unnecessary stress to your loved ones.

Funeral or cremation coverage (if shopped properly) provides a preset plan that doesn't increase over time. With a choice of payments, it is one of the smartest ways to save money.

With so many funeral coverage options to choose from - how can you know which one is the most convenient?

It's more important now than ever to lock in a rate that won't grow over time.

The cost of living crisis, coupled with Covid, has caused inflation to skyrocket. 

The cost of an average funeral in 2023 was £4,141, a cremation £3,795, and a direct cremation £1,498 ² .

The good news is that there's a way to lock-in your rate today and avoid these inflation hikes.

A cheaper popular option is a direct cremation. It costs less than half that of a traditional funeral, and provides a simple fuss-free option.
