Otter Valley Funerals is a local company owned and managed by funeral director Simon Savage with one goal in mind, to provide the community of Budleigh and the surrounding areas with exceptional care at their time of need.
Unfortunately it is very likely we will all die. The rising cost of everything means a funeral in years to come will cost more than today. By securing a funeral plan now the cost is based on current prices even though this will rise in the future.
According to the SunLife Cost of Dying Report, 2018, average funeral costs have gone up by 122.5% since 2004 and the projected average cost of a funeral will be £5,120.00 by 2023.
You can buy a fully secured, guaranteed plan from Otter Valley Funerals today from as little as £3195.
A prepaid funeral plan is a way to pay for your (or someone else’s) funeral in advance either by installments or in a lump sum. It does not matter when that person dies – the plan will pay for the funeral you have chosen, even if decades later.
For many people this is the easiest and most practical way to reduce any worry or burden on relatives who otherwise would have to find funds to pay for the funeral. The funds are actually held in trust so even if your preferred funeral director is no longer around you will get the same service and cover regardless.
From July 2022 funeral plans will also fall under the regulation of the Financial Conduct Authority. This puts them in the same bracket as other regulated products such as mortgages and bank accounts.
