Providing Security and Simplicity Through Pre-Paid Funeral Plans
Pre-paid funeral plans allow you to arrange and pay for your funeral in advance, ensuring your family is protected from rising costs and difficult decisions. With Golden Charter, you can choose a plan that suits your needs and budget, while ensuring your arrangements are handled with care and professionalism.
Payment Options to Suit You
With a Golden Charter funeral plan, you can pay for your plan in several ways. Spread the cost or make a one-off payment – simply choose the one that’s right for you. We will provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision.
The retail price of your funeral plan is representative of the equivalent cost of a funeral today plus an arrangement fee of £350 which is retained by Golden Charter to help cover the costs of setting up your plan.
Your Payments Are Protected
Your payments are held within the Golden Charter Trust. With almost £1.2 billion under management³, the Trust is operated by a Board of Trustees, completely independent of Golden Charter. Their role is to hold your payments and ensure that the funeral director services in your plan can be paid for at the time they are required – however far into the future that may be. For more information on how your payments are protected, please visit goldencharter.co.uk/faqs.
