Funeral plan: fix the price of your funeral today and save £1000s
Protect those you love from the worry and expense

Reader review 

Readers tell us the wellbeing of our families is a priority and that issues surrounding our own mortality are a worry. The buying clout of Club Together readers has enabled us to negotiate an offer that covers both areas.

Club Together reader Chris Gardiner went to meet Steve Wallis, General Manager for Dignity Funeral Plans, to review what’s on offer to our readers. Chris recently arranged his mother’s funeral himself.ur readers have been asking us for a better deal on everyday healthcare. We’ve found the best deal with the best supplier in the country.

Chris: “Why buy a funeral plan now?”

Steve: “Peace of mind. To know your family won’t be left to organise or pay for your funeral. A funeral plan removes extra stress for your family at an already distressing time.

“Pre-arranging your funeral helps you take control of your own affairs and states your exact wishes.”

Chris: “Can you choose everything for your funeral so that all your relatives have to do is call?”

Steve: “We can save your family from unnecessary stress. We could arrange the whole thing. “More often we assist. We contact the funeral director within an hour of the person passing away. We pay the bill and make the arrangements. The family see the funeral director and can add any personal touches they like.

“Also a lot of people don’t know what to do when someone dies: 53% of people turn to a telephone directory or a website.“We provide stringently vetted funeral directors in your area so you don’t need to worry ‘are they going to do a good job?’”

Chris: “What financial reasons are there to buy a plan now?”

Steve: “Your funeral is guaranteed at today’s prices. The average cost of a funeral in the UK was over £2,500 in 2008 and it’s predicted to be over £3,500 by 2017.

“Your family won’t be left with a huge bill. The money you thought would pay for your funeral could be locked in probate. This could force your family to find the money themselves or delay your funeral.

“A funeral is not subject to inheritance tax and is excluded from calculations if you go into care.  It’s projected that one in three people will end up in care. Unless you’ve had advice, the local council could leave you with just £13,000. Out of that your family may have to pay your funeral expenses – unless you have a funeral plan.
