We always remember you have choices and that choosing can be challenging when you’re grieving!
We are here to support, guide and sometimes actually hold your hand as we help you navigate all the options you have to create a truly personal and unique funeral for your loved one.
Most of us are familiar with traditional funerals either through personal experiences or through TV and film.
A traditional funeral usually means a service at a church or crematorium with cars to transport the family and their loved one, also importantly your choice of route to the service. There are a multitude of variations for a choice of hearse which could be a horse drawn, land rover, motorcycle and sidecar or any number of other possibilities; The choice of a coffin, wood, cardboard or wicker, depending on your preference.
We will help you work out the exact combination to reflect the life of the person who lived.
Want a colourful coffin or a green burial?
We can help you with a modern interpretation of a funeral or combine your preferred elements of both traditional and modern.
Many people are choosing direct cremation because they don’t want a fuss.
We’ve been offering simple funerals and “direct” funerals for years for exactly this reason and unlike the big nationals we do it differently. We take your loved one in our hearse to the Chapel, whilst there is no chapel visit – but we allow the family to attend the grounds on the date and time
We will also take personal care of their ashes not send them back in the post.
A funeral plan allows you to plan and pay for your funeral in advance and give you lasting peace of mind that everything is in hand. With a funeral plan from Golden Leaves, you can secure the funeral director’s fees at today’s prices: in other words, there’s no more to pay for the funeral directors’ fees that are itemised within your funeral plan. Golden Leaves’ funeral plans also include an allowance towards the cost of third-party fees like cremation or burial fees or the fee for the officiant at the funeral.
Alternatively, you can opt for the Golden Leaves Third Party Fee guarantee. For an additional payment, you can secure the cost of third-party fees so that these are locked in to the price of your plan.
At RH Faulkner & Daughter we work in partnership with Golden Leaves to provide you with a way to plan and pay for your funeral in advance. Golden Leaves have been at the forefront of funeral planning since 1984 when funeral plans first became available in the UK, so you can trust that your family will be provided with care and service from industry experts.
The funds you pay for your funeral plan (minus a fee that Golden Leaves keeps for plan administration) are held in the Golden Leaves Trust which is separate from Golden Leaves and managed by an independent board of trustees to make sure that the funds for your funeral are there when the time comes.
