Funeral Costs Explained

Funeral Service Disbursements

These are 3rd party costs involved which may be for the Crematorium, Cemetery or Church fees, the Minister, Doctor’s fees, Newspaper notices, Flowers etc.

These items may be paid by us on your behalf and will be listed under the heading ‘Fees and Disbursements’ on the estimate & final account.

Please note: We require payment for the fixed disbursements when arranging the funeral service.

Help with the cost of a Funeral

You can apply for a Funeral Payment if you have difficulty paying for the funeral. (Please contact the Jobcentre Plus and ask for form SF200). Any payment is only a contribution, and will not cover all the costs of a Funeral account.

Our ‘Simple Funeral Service’ (as approved by the Office of Fair Trading) is specifically designed for this eventuality.

Please note: The person who signs our agreement, will accept full responsibility for the Funeral account and must cover the shortfall
in the Social Fund Payment. If family members, relatives or friends wish to share the cost, then we respectfully ask that the person arranging the funeral collects all funds due to us and makes a single payment.

Our Funeral costs include the following:

  • Dignified collection of your loved one to our Chapel of Rest.
  • Experienced Funeral Director to discuss the planning of the Funeral arrangements.
  • Preparation & submission of statutory documentation to the relevant authorities.
  • Preparation & submission of confirmation letters to the family & Officiating Minister (where applicable) all incidental expenses, telephone calls etc.
  • Personal 24 hour telephone help & support.
  • Handling of statutory arrangements with Clergy, Cemetery or Crematorium, Doctors, etc.
  • Advising & placing notices in Local or National newspapers. (Not inclusive of newspaper costs).
  • Your personal choice of coffin.
  • Assistance ordering flowers, receiving & care of tributes.
  • Supplying memorial attendance books at the Funeral if requested.
