By making your wishes known in advance, you'll make sure there is no doubt or confusion among those who are close to you. There are choices which should only be yours, and it's wise to make them known now.

How do Help the Aged Funeral Plans work?

Your personal details and funeral requests are held on our confidential file. At the time of need one call to your selected funeral director will make sure your wishes are fulfilled.

Once your plan is paid for in full, your family or friends will not be asked to pay for any costs that are within your funeral director's control.

Are there any health or age restrictions?

No. We guarantee that your application will be accepted. You can also apply on behalf of a relative or friend.

What if I move to another area?

If you move to another area, your plan can easily be transferred to a funeral director in your new neighbourhood.

What if I die away from home?

All plans include transportation of the deceased from anywhere in the UK.

Who manages the Trust Fund?

Your payment will be held in a legally separate trust, the funds of which are managed by leading Trust Fund Managers. Only when your instructions have been carried out will your funeral director be paid.

Help the Aged Funeral Plans are provided by Golden Charter, a British owned funeral plan provider, registered with the Funeral Planning Authority. Help the Aged will benefit financially from each plan purchased.
