Purchase A Funeral Plan

It is important that we tailor the plan to suit your requirements so please contact us to arrange this with you.

Payment Options To Suit You

With a Golden Charter funeral plan, you can pay for your plan in several ways. Spread the cost or make a one-off payment, simply choose the one that’s right for you. We will provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision.

The retail price of your funeral plan is representative of the equivalent cost of a funeral today, plus an arrangement fee of £325 which is retained by Golden Charter to help cover the cost of setting up your plan.

Your payments are held within the Golden Charter Trust. With £1.2 billion under management1 the Trust is operated by a Board of Trustees, completely independent of Golden Charter. Their role is to hold your payments and ensure that the funeral director services in your plan can be paid for at the time they are required, however far into the future that may be.

Looking After You As A Customer

As a Golden Charter plan holder, you’ll receive personalised plan documents, which include a summary of your plan, our details, your plan holder certificate and a personal membership card for you to carry in your purse or wallet.

You can add a nominated representative to your plan if you wish to do so. Your nominated representative will receive a letter which will provide details of your plan and our details, as your chosen funeral director. They will have no authority to make changes to your plan.

You’ll also receive a statement from Golden Charter every three years which will be sent via your preferred contact method.

As your funeral director, we’ll hold full details of your funeral plan. When the time comes, one phone call is all it takes to activate your plan and get the arrangements underway.
