Yes, our plans are flexible and open to changes. If you would like to cancel or edit the details, our team can handle this for you without any fuss. We always want you to have a plan that reflects your wishes, so if they change, so should your plan. You'll also be happy to know that making those changes or cancelling comes at no extra cost to you, it's always free. However, there may be an increase in the overall cost of your plan if you decide to go for a more expensive option down the line, like adding on an attended service at a crematorium in Derby.

Once everything's finalised and paid for, you can choose a trusted person as your representative. They'll receive a helpful guide to navigate the process after you're gone and be our point of contact after you have passed.

If you did want to have a small service at your local, Derby crematorium, they can help with those arrangements too. This ensures you have a dignified goodbye while minimising stress on your loved ones.
