Arranging A Funeral

Arranging a funeral can be a daunting prospect, made harder by the fact that you are grieving for the loss of a loved one. To help with the process, we thoroughly recommend you look through the Arranging A Funeral section on our website, which is split into three easy to understand categories. Alternatively, downloading our Arranging A Funeral Guide Book will provide you with all the necessary information you will need, and as always, we will be with you every step of the way.

Funeral Bonds with Sureplan Gold

Sureplan Gold is a dedicated funeral fund where you can contribute savings to cover your funeral costs.

When the time comes, the benefit is paid quickly to your nominated person to cover reasonable funeral expenses. Any remaining funds are directed to your estate.
