Planning Ahead - Funeral Plans
When it comes to planning a funeral, it can be a sensitive topic to navigate – especially if you are a loved one planning a service or ceremony for the deceased. That’s why it may be beneficial to
consider the option of a prepaid funeral plan – as you can alleviate the emotional and financial
burdens from your family and loved ones by planning and paying for your own funeral ahead of
time.
We believe it’s all about the personal touch – which is why, here at Kevin Moxon Family Funeral
Directors, we have chosen to be an Introducer Appointed Representative (IAR) of Open Prepaid
Funerals who can provide you with a suitable prepaid funeral plan for your needs.
This relationship allows us to provide Open with our expertise and guidance on how the funeral is conducted, whilst they set up a plan which can be tailor made to your needs and preferences.

Why choose a prepaid funeral plan?
By choosing a prepaid funeral plan, this is a simple and practical way to let your loved ones know that everything is taken care of. Some of the main benefits include:-
- Removes financial burden – as the funeral plan will be paid up front or in monthly instalments, this can reduce the financial burden on loved ones when the time comes.
- Can alleviate emotional stress - planning your funeral beforehand provides a caring solution to reduce emotional stress on your loved ones.
- Individual personalisation – by choosing a prepaid funeral plan, you can decide on the theme of your own funeral yourself, and ensure that everything is to your taste and personal preference ahead of the time.
- Funeral Director fees are fixed – although funeral plan prices may fluctuate due to inflation, by choosing an Open Prepaid Funeral plan, the price of the funeral director's professional services is fixed at the time the plan has been bought – meaning that your plan is safe for years to come.
- Contribution to Core Disbursements – there is a possibility that at the time of need, in relation to disbursements only, your family may have to contribute to the cost of these if the plan value is lower than the at need cost at the time.
By choosing a local independent funeral director with Open Prepaid Funerals, you can receive a high-quality experience along with the expertise required – allowing you to be safe in the knowledge your funeral is taken care of when the time comes.
Simply get in touch with us and we will arrange an appointment with an Open adviser or you can contact Open directly on 0330 660 0072 to get the process started.
