Plan ahead
Thinking ahead about funerals can feel daunting but it doesn’t have to be. Taking a little time now can make a big difference later, whether you’re preparing for yourself or helping a loved one. It ensures everyone knows what to expect and allows your family to focus on remembering and celebrating your life.
Why it helps to plan ahead
Clarity for your family
They’ll know your wishes and feel confident following them, relieving potential stress
Peace of mind
You’re in control of arrangements with guidance from our dedicated team
Financial reassurance

Personal choices

Reduce the financial burden for loved ones
If you’d like to make provision for the financial side too, our pre-paid funeral plans in association with Ecclesiastical Planning Services let you see what’s included, compare options, and even arrange payment online.
- Financial planning: Lock in our direct costs and make a contribution towards third party costs
- Flexible payment: Pay in full or spread the cost with monthly instalments – eligibility criteria apply.
- Peace of mind: Reduce the financial burden on your loved ones


Record your wishes
You don’t need a pre-paid plan to make things easier for your family. A pre-arranged funeral ensures your wishes are known and gives your loved ones peace of mind when the time comes.

- No financial commitment: Plan now, pay later when the time comes
- Professional guidance: Our team helps you think through all the options
