Living in the warmth and friendship of an expatriate community has many benefits – but however strong your local friendships are, you can be a particularly long way from home at times of family grief.

Will your friends know what to do, who to call and how to help arrange a funeral to suit your own and your family’s wishes? Golden Leaves funeral planning service will help you pre-plan and pre-pay for your funeral wherever you have chosen to live.

Pre-planning gives you the peace of mind of knowing that the arrangements you particularly want, will be conducted sensibly, in dignified respect to your wishes.

Pre-paying now will save you, your family or your estate a great deal of money. Bought now at today's prices, every detail is guaranteed no matter when it is needed or how much the costs of a funeral have risen in the mean time.

Sharing the intimate details of your preferred funeral service 5, 10 or 15 years ahead of its time can be quite a difficult concept to consider. If you write it down, who will you entrust the paper to? If you tell your partner, sons or daughters, how will they remember and plan your every wish in their time of sadness? Only you can advise sensibly on such individual requirements - Burial or Cremation? Church? Hymns? Music? Cars? Memorialisation? Or perhaps you have an environmental requirement such as woodland burial for instance?

Bereaved relatives have grief and anger to contend with. Adding the administrative burden of
arranging the funeral to their confused and emotional state may lead to mistakes being made and unnecessary costs being incurred..

Planning and paying for your funeral in advance saves your family the anguish and grief of
doing anything other than remembering you.

Why Pay Now?

The cost of funerals has historically increased above the normal levels of inflation and this is a theme that is predicted to continue. A funeral costing just £850 ten years ago, would cost
nearer £2,300 now. It is impossible to say what that cost might be in five or ten more years
time.

What is certain is, with a Golden Leaves Funeral Plan, bought now at today's prices or paid for in convenient monthly instalments, the quality of the service provided in respect of your
planned wishes will not cost your family one penny more - whenever it is ultimately needed.
