HOW MUCH WILL A FUNERAL COST?
Unfortunately this is a very difficult question to answer because there are so many factors that can change the cost.
Different authorities charge different amounts for cremations.
Grave plot prices vary around the UK as much as house prices do.
The service can be anything from simple to elaborate.
As a general guide, the cheapest funeral one can arrange can be from around £900, but most cremations now cost around £1800-£2200 with burials slightly more plus the cost of the grave plot. Extravagant funerals can set you back anything from £5000. The current average is closer to £2200.
You'll see that to a buy a pre-paid funeral plans at £2000+ means that you get a great deal now, let alone the potential savings against inflation in the future - all because you bought your own pre-paid funeral plan.
