A prepaid funeral plan can bring a small comfort to your family during what is often a difficult time. When you choose to set up a plan in advance, you take care of the costs and decisions about your funeral yourself. This means your loved ones won't have to handle these details while they are grieving. As well as that, you protect the ones you leave behind from financial stress. Not only do you sort out the payment for them, but you also help shield your family from possible price jumps by paying the current prices which may be lower than they are in the future. A Carlisle funeral plan with Aura can be paid through instalments or a lump sum, and your money is securely held in a trust, giving both you and your family reassurance.
The cost of prepaid funeral plans in Carlisle can vary, as every funeral will be tailored to the individual's wishes. According to data in the SunLife 2024 Cost of Dying Report, the national average is around £4,141. However, Aura offers plans starting at just £1,695, with no hidden fees. Our compassionate team is here to assist you with any questions. Feel free to give us a call or request a quote through our website. We're here to help make this process as smooth as possible for you.
Certainly, you can make changes whenever you need to. At Aura, we recognise that life's circumstances and your funeral wishes can shift. That’s why our plans are designed to be adaptable. Whether you need to cancel or adjust your service, we’re ready to assist without any additional fees. Our supportive team is always available to help you fine-tune your arrangements so they perfectly match your current preferences. You should know that if you did change your plan to now include a service of some kind, this may impact the overall price you have to pay.
Once your plan is set up and paid for, it's ready for when it's needed. You just need to let us know who your nominated representative will be. This is a trusted person who will help organise everything after you've passed. We'll send them a guide to prepare them for what's ahead. When the time comes, your representative simply needs to call us, and our wonderful team will be there to support your family every step of the way. Whether you need help handling documents or assistance with the details of an intimate service at a crematorium in Carlisle, your funeral plan is designed to provide a dignified farewell with minimal hassle. It's all about easing the burden on your loved ones, sparing them the difficulty of making tough decisions alone.
