Planning ahead
The passing of a loved one often prompts people to consider the provisions that they have made for the future. At Smiths Funeral Directors we are able to recommend funeral plans from Golden Charter, the UK’s leading Independent Funeral Plan provider.
We offer the Independent Way Funeral Plan which is a bespoke plan, tailored to individual requests, and therefore also tailored to individual costs incurred in the plan. If you would like to know more about the benefits of taking out a funeral plan, please telephone to make an appointment to meet with us either in our funeral home or in the comfort of your own home.
If you already have a pre-purchased funeral plan and would like to discuss transferring the plan and nominating Smiths Funeral Directors, we would be pleased to talk to you about arranging this.
