[H1] What is a

[H1] Funeral Plan?

A funeral plan is an easy way to arrange the funeral you want in advance. A plan allows you to specify your wishes and pay for the funeral director’s services included in your plan. As customers often tell us, that can bring peace of mind to you and your family. A plan from Golden Charter also includes an allowance towards third party costs. These are essential, non-funeral director services such as the cremation or burial fees, plus the minister or officiant’s fee to perform the service. At Groves Family Funeral Directors, we work in partnership with Golden Charter to provide you with a simple way to plan ahead. As one of the UK’s largest funeral plan providers1, Golden Charter has helped over 900,000 people to plan ahead2, so we’re completely confident in offering their plans to you.
Everyone has different needs when it comes to funeral planning, so we make sure the plans we offer are as flexible as possible. When you get in touch, we’ll be happy to discuss your funeral requirements and tailor a plan to suit you. Rest assured a plan from Golden Charter is available to all UK residents regardless of age or state of health.

More Information

[H2] A Plan to Suit Your Needs

As an independently owned funeral director, we’ll take the time to understand your wishes and tailor a plan to suit you. We can discuss these at our premises or in your home, at a time that is convenient for you. If you’d prefer to discuss this over the phone or via email, we can assist with this too. You can tell us about any preferences you have in mind – the type of funeral you would like to have, hymns, music or any other personal touches – and we’ll make sure your plan takes these into account.

[H2] What's Included

[H2] in a

[H2] Pre-Paid Funeral Plan?

Our funeral director’s services will be covered in your funeral plan, which means our fees will be fixed at today’s prices and protected against rising costs. These services typically include: Professional services and making arrangements for the funeralTransportation of the deceased from the place of death to our premises, chapel of rest or other suitable locationCare of the deceased and preparations for family viewing if requestedAdvice on the certification and registration of death and related documentationProvision of funeral vehiclesAdvice on bereavement counsellingCoffin or casket requested

[H2] Third Party Costs

Although a pre-paid funeral plan can cover all of the services above, there are some additional third party costs to consider. These are the costs for essential, non-funeral director services required to carry out a cremation or burial which need to be paid at the time of the funeral. These costs are outside our control. Depending on the plan type chosen, a Golden Charter funeral plan can include a contribution towards some third party costs. They may include: Crematorium feeMinister or officiant’s feeCemetery fee: the opening of a new or existing grave for burial or interment of cremated remains

[H2] Other Third Party Cost

Other third party costs that may be associated with a funeral include: Purchase of grave or lairHire of church or other venueFees for organist or soloistMemorial, such as a headstone, entry in a book of remembrance, or the planting of a treeCatering, floral tributes and newspaper announcements
There will only be more to pay at the time of the funeral if the third party costs exceed the allowance when you buy your plan, or if the costs increase by more than the growth of your plan.However, even if prices rise in the future, you’ll have the reassurance of knowing there’ll be nothing more to pay for our funeral director’s services included in the plan once your plan is fully paid for – guaranteed.

[H2] Payment Options to

[H2] Suit You

With a Golden Charter funeral plan, you can pay for your plan in several ways. Spread the cost or make a one-off payment – simply choose the one that’s right for you. We will provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision.
The retail price of your funeral plan is representative of the equivalent cost of a funeral today plus an arrangement fee of £325 which is retained by Golden Charter to help cover the costs of setting up your plan.Your payments are held within the Golden Charter Trust. With almost £1.2 billion under management3, the Trust is operated by a Board of Trustees, completely independent of Golden Charter. Their role is to hold your payments and ensure that the funeral director services in your plan can be paid for at the time they are required – however far into the future that may be. For more information on how your payments are protected, please visit goldencharter.co.uk/faqs

[H1] Funeral ArrangementsFor the Somerset & Weston-super-Mare Areas
The planning of a funeral service can be a daunting task, and we are here to help and assist you throughout the proceedings. We strive to achieve the highest possible standard of personal care to the family and the deceased. We aim to provide compassionate funeral services to clients throughout the Somerset and Weston-super-Mare areas.We can conduct all meetings in the comfort of your own home, but you may visit our offices if you prefer. We will follow your instructions and make all the necessary arrangements to plan the service you require and make this a lasting memory.

[H2] When it comes to funeral arrangements there are certain matters which need consideration, including:
The registration of the death. The wishes of the deceased, which may be contained in a will. The decision as to whether the funeral will be a cremation or a burial. The day and time of the funeral service.  The choice of a coffin. The wording of the newspaper notice. The choice of floral tributes. Whether there is a request for donations. Printing and planning of the orders of service. Whether the family wish to spend time in our private chapel.  The charges involved with the funeral service. Although most of the funerals we conduct take place locally in the Somerset and Weston-super-Mare areas, we can arrange funerals in other parts of the country, and indeed the repatriation of the deceased to and from abroad. The main decision when arranging a funeral is whether the service is to be a burial or cremation. Religious beliefs will also be taken into consideration.

[H2] You Have Options
We can arrange cremation services and advise on the choice of the crematorium. When cremation is chosen, it is important to consider the decision over the final resting place of the ashes. Traditionally, cremated remains can be entombed in a columbarium, buried in a plot, or buried in an urn garden. The family can also choose to keep the remains.We can also arrange burial services. We will discuss the available choices with you and can offer a burial in a local cemetery, or churchyard. It is important to remember, however, that depending on where you live, not all burials may be permitted in churchyards due to limited space. Transport to and from the place of service will need to be considered. We provide limousines to take care of you from home onto the place of service and then return after the funeral. We are also able to offer alternative methods of transportation, including the splendour of a traditional horse-drawn hearse. The choice of a coffin is indeed very personal and varies from one family to another. We offer a range of coffins from veneered to solid wood coffins; we can also offer bamboo, willow and cardboard coffins. We have our own private Chapel of Rest where you may spend time with your loved one. We will dress the deceased in their own clothing, or we can provide something more elegant if you prefer. We will liaise with our stonemason as to any future memorial stone that may be required.We are happy to advise and arrange any function you may require after the service and take care of the catering.
[H2] Enquire Today About our Funeral Arrangement Services.
The choice of funeral arrangements is always made by the family or the deceased, although we are here to help you through that process. To learn more, please enquire with us. We proudly provide comprehensive and compassionate funeral services to the Somerset and Weston-super-Mare areas.
