Plan ahead to save money and worry Join the 625,000 people who have already made provisions for funeral costs in advance with Dignity
Thirty years ago The Express’ preferred provider, Dignity, introduced the first funeral plan in the UK. Their plan allows people across the country to guarantee that by pre- paying funeral costs, loved ones will never have to pay a penny more towards the services covered by the plan, no matter when the funeral takes place.
Dignity has helped more people make provision for their funeral in advance than any other provider, helping to save families in the UK money and worry. The average cost of a funeralwas £ 3,527 in 2014 and is projected to rise to more than £ 5,400 by 2021*, just six years away.
Dignity’s very first member paid just £ 384 for their plan. Their foresight has saved their loved ones a significant amount of money and it’s clear to see that paying in advance and fixing funeral costs at today’s price with a Guaranteed Funeral Plan from Dignity makes great financial sense. The Guaranteed Funeral Plan also lets you take care of the funeral arrangements in advance. This means your loved ones won’t have the worry of finding a funeral director, or deciding on the most appropriate arrangements. They will have all the help and support they need and be made aware of your requests, allowing them to concentrate on making their own personal tributes. What makes Dignity different is the support they provide for you and your loved ones every step of the way. From the day you enquire about a funeral plan, to the moment your loved ones need to talk to one of their 1,100 owned or approved Funeral Directors, you’ll always be treated with care and compassion. You’ll be given open and honest answers, and have someone to call if you need help or support. Their award- winning UK- based Client Service Centre is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
