Planning Ahead

Help your loved ones tomorrow

No-one likes to dwell on the inevitable, but planning ahead is a sensible idea for you and your family. Have you ever thought about how your family would cope financially and emotionally when the time comes to arrange your funeral? Wouldn’t it be reassuring to know that this is already taken care of?

At an already difficult time, having a Funeral Plan in place can save your family from these emotional and financial burdens. The Co-operative Funeralcare Funeral Plan, allows you to pay towards your funeral in advance and personalise it by recording any personal wishes so that the Funeral Director can pass them on to your family at the time of need. What’s more as the cost of a funeral has almost doubled in the last decade* , by paying towards your funeral now you can help protect you and your family from further rises in the future, which makes complete sense.

Easy to afford

We know that our clients appreciate flexibility, and with this in mind we offer a choice of ways to pay for a Funeral Plan.

  • You can pay in full with a single payment by cheque, credit or debit card (or cash if paying at your local The Co-operative Funeralcare Funeral Home)
  • You can spread the cost by paying in full over 12, 24 or 36 months by direct debit.
  • Alternatively, if you are aged 50 – 80, you can pay by fixed monthly payments by direct debit – the payment is based in the Plan type you choose, your age and gender and is payable for life or until the anniversary of your 90th birthday, whichever is sooner. (This option is not available for Tailor-made Funeral Plans.)

Whichever way you choose, you’ll have peace of mind, knowing that by taking out a Funeral Plan now, there will be no extra costs to pay when the time comes for the specified arrangements in your Funeral Plan - and that’s guaranteed. There really can be no better reassurance than that.
