About our funeral plans

Planning ahead for your funeral is one of the most thoughtful and caring things you can do. Some people never get around to discussing funeral wishes with their loved ones, which can lead to all sorts of worry and anxiety when the time comes.

Making a funeral plan is a simple and straightforward way to remove this worry, and it can provide real financial benefits too. Some of the other benefits include:

  • Pre-arrange the details of your funeral and record any special wishes, such as hymns, music choices and any other personal touches you would like your plan to include 
  • Make financial provision for your funeral
  • Choose Respect as your trusted funeral director in advance
  • Ensure your family has access to expert help at what can be a difficult time

Our funeral plan is available to UK residents and there are no complicated medical forms to complete. We will keep information about your plan, according to your instructions. 

Your plans cover details of your funeral costs (as specified in the plan paperwork) information download

Funeral plan FAQs

Q. Can the plan include special wishes?

You can add special wishes and requests such as song choices, readings, information for a eulogy and so on. There is no charge to add these details. There may be more to pay if you require additional features, services or upgrades. You can also appoint a nominated representative, who we will keep informed about your plan according to your instructions. 

Q. What happens if I move to a different part of the country?

If you move, this is not a problem at all.

Q. Can I arrange a funeral plan for someone else?

Yes, we find that many of our customers choose to do this.

Q. Can I change my funeral plan arrangements?

Yes, you can make changes to your plan after you have taken it out.  There may be an additional cost if you add new features and services to your plan. 

Q. Can I cancel my plan?

Yes.

Q. What happens if I die abroad?

The plan does not cover the cost of a funeral abroad, or the cost of repatriating the deceased. It is therefore important that your travel insurance policy covers this.
