Fix the cost of your funeral today & beat rising funeral costs
The average cost of a basic funeral today is £4,184.
Funeral costs in the UK have gone up 128% since prices were recorded in 2004. That's far above inflation. By way of comparison, the average full-time wage has only increased 42.6% in the same period.
If this trend in funeral costs continues, by 2025 the cost of a funeral could rise a further 20% to £5,044 . What could you or your family do with the difference if you fixed the cost of your funeral today?
