Golden Leaves Funeral Plans

Funeral planning services for your peace of mind
Planning a funeral is never easy, but taking steps ahead of time can offer comfort and clarity
when the moment arrives. Our pre-planning services through Golden Leaves are made to
ensure that your wishes are honoured while sparing your loved ones the stress of making
difficult decisions during an already emotional time. With a funeral plan from Golden Leaves,
you can secure the funeral director’s fees at today’s prices: in other words, there’s no more
to pay for the funeral directors’ fees that are itemised within your funeral plan. Golden
Leaves’ funeral plans also include an allowance towards the cost of third-party fees like
cremation or burial fees or the fee for the officiant at the funeral. Alternatively, you can opt for
the Golden Leaves Third Party Fee guarantee.
For an additional payment, you can secure the cost of third-party fees so that these are
locked into the price of your plan.

Relieve your family of the burden
During times of loss, families can often feel burdened by the number of decisions they must
make. By arranging your funeral in advance, you can take that weight off their shoulders.
Pre-planning not only ensures your wishes are followed, but it also helps reduce the financial
and emotional strain on your loved ones.
At Central Funeral Services we work in partnership with Golden Leaves to provide you
with a way to plan and pay for your funeral in advance. Golden Leaves have been at the
forefront of funeral planning since 1984 when funeral plans first became available in the UK,
so you can trust that your family will be provided with care and service from industry experts.
The funds you pay for your funeral plan (minus a fee that Golden Leaves keeps for plan
administration) are held in the Golden Leaves Trust which is separate from Golden Leaves
and managed by an independent board of trustees to make sure that the funds for your
funeral are there when the time comes.

Choosing your plan
We understand that everyone is different, which is why Golden Leaves’ funeral plans are
designed to hold your personalised wishes in one place. With a Golden Leaves funeral plan,
there are three simple ways to pay. You can select immediate cover with a payment in full or
you can spread your payments over 12 interest free monthly instalments or ask about
Golden Leaves’ credit payment option. Instalment or credit payment options are subject to
age and health status but if you’re interested in these, just ask Golden Leaves and they’ll
give you all the information you need.
When you get in touch with us, we’ll take your name and your telephone number, and we’ll
arrange for an experienced Golden Leaves representative to contact you to discuss your
individual requirements.
