What's included in the Insured Funeral Plan?

It’s not easy to think about planning for your funeral but taking a little time now could give you great peace of mind, ensuring that you can have the funeral you want without placing a burden on your loved ones.

We've teamed up with Dignity to bring you the Insured Funeral Plan. They're one of the UK's leading providers of funeral services, with a network of over 560 experienced funeral directors - many of whom have served their local communities for generations.

What's included in your Insured Funeral Plan:

• Advice and guidance on all aspects of the funeral
• 24 hour telephone bereavement counselling.
• Cremation fee, minister’s or officiant’s fee, doctors medical cremation certificates (these are known as disbursements).
• Family viewing, during week days by appointment.
• Transport of the deceased to the Dignity Funeral Director’s premises (up to 20 miles) – in the UK only.*
• Quality wood effect coffin with high quality finish, fully lined and fitted
• Preparation and care of the body (embalming not included).
• Funeral procession from home to place of worship and crematorium or burial site.
• Provision of hearse and one limousine.
• Dignity appointed Funeral Director and staff to attend the service.
• Collection of charitable donations.
• Once you’ve taken out a plan you can choose to personalise your funeral with elements such as hymns, music and readings.

• If you prefer a burial then the benefit will pay a contribution towards the costs. (If you prefer a burial the Plan will still provide the Funeral Director's services outlined above. However, Dignity do not provide the equivalent third party services associated with the burial. Instead Dignity provide a contribution of £1,030 towards the cost of these third party services. Dignity cannot guarantee this will cover the full cost of a burial as prices vary from region to region).
