Yes It’s true that whilst we are in our 30s, and 40s we all feel as if we are going to go on forever. That said, the longer we are alive the more responsibility we get and the more we learn of others who never made it to that stage of life.
In 2014, the University of Bath’s institute for Policy Research reported to the Government that the average cost of a funeral was £3486 and that was before the additional costs. Compare this to the costs in 2004 of just £1920. Which is a rise of 88%.
Based on that rate of increase we could expect by 2024 a funeral to cost £6533 and by 2034 it could be as high as £12300.
With people living longer and finding it hard to get onto the housing market, a huge divide is growing in the number of people able to actually afford a suitable send off when that time comes.
When the worst happens, your pre-paid funeral plan removes this burden from those family members or loved ones left behind. A small relief at what is often the toughest of times.
