Financial Assistance

PROFESSIONALISM AND EXPERIENCE

Getting help with the funeral cost

If you have problems financing a funeral, speak to the Department of Works and Pensions (DWP) immediately. This should be done before you confirm the funeral order with us. The DWP will only fund or contribute towards the cost of a funeral if the immediate family is unable to pay for the funeral and the potential claimants and their immediate family are in receipt of certain state benefits. The form required for making claims to the Department for Works and Pensions is SF200. This can be obtained by clicking on this link: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/funeral-payment-claim-form or from any DWP office, Job Centre or Citizen’s Advice Bureau.

  • Help to protect loved ones from rising funeral costs by fixing the cost of our professional funeral directing services
  • Make a contribution towards third party costs which are outside of our control and cannot be guaranteed
  • Financial security – the funeral pre-payment is securely held in a guaranteed whole of life assurance policy until it is needed
  • The service will be provided by us
