About Open Prepaid Funerals

Open Prepaid Funerals Limited was formed in 2003 with the aim of providing a financially secure and ethical method of planning a future funeral by specialising in prepaid funeral plans. We offer a range of prepaid funeral plans, from a low-key unattended cremation to attended services designed to suit a variety of requirements. You can also create almost anything you require in our very detailed and unique bespoke plan.

The cost of your prepaid funeral plan depends entirely on the plan you choose, your personal preference and the level of service that you require. The expert team of Open Advisers will talk you through this on the telephone, online using a webcam, or if required, face to face.

Once set up, your payment is made into The Open Prepaid Funerals Trust Fund, where it is managed by professional fund managers, overseen by a board of trustees and independently audited annually. The trust deed has been created in such a way that its purpose is to offer greater protection to you the plan holder and your family or estate. We here at Leverton and Sons Ltd will have the responsibility for the provision of your funeral on behalf of you through Open Prepaid Funerals.

Why Choose a Prepaid Funeral Plan

By choosing a prepaid funeral plan, this is a simple and practical way to let your loved ones know that everything is taken care of. Some of the main benefits include:

  • Reduces financial burden – as the funeral plan will be paid up front or in monthly instalments, this can reduce the financial burden on loved ones when the time comes.
  • Can alleviate emotional stress - planning your funeral beforehand helps to alleviate added stress, but also provides a caring solution to decrease emotional stress on your loved ones.
  • Funeral Director professional fees are fixed – although funeral plan prices may fluctuate due to inflation, the price of the funeral directors professional services is fixed at the time the plan has been bought – meaning that your plan is safe for years to come.
  • Contribution to disbursements – your plan can include a contribution to third party costs, such as; the crematorium cost, a minister or officiant to carry out the service, flowers or obituary notices. Your contribution to disbursements is not guaranteed to be covered and your family or estate may have to make an additional contribution at the time of need. A list of potential disbursements are available in our terms and conditions.
  • Individual personalisation – by choosing a prepaid funeral plan, you can decide on the theme of your own funeral yourself and ensure that everything is to your taste and personal preference ahead of the time.

By choosing a local independent funeral director with Open Prepaid Funerals, you can receive a high-quality experience along with the expertise required – allowing you to be safe in the knowledge your funeral is taken care of when the time comes. Simply get in touch with us and we will arrange an appointment with an Open Adviser or you can contact Open directly on 0330 660 0072 to get the process started.

Lorna Walkden at Leverton and Sons Ltd did an excellent job on helping with the funeral arrangements for my godmother. Everything worked as planned and I am very happy to recommend both Lorna Walkden and Leverton and Sons Ltd for funeral services.

We had faultless service throughout from the team at Levertons Golders Green. The advice and help they offered at every stage was invaluable, and the care, calm and respect that came with it was greatly appreciated. From the first stages of planning to the day itself, it was a remarkably stress-free process - and the whole family was delighted with how the funeral went. We offer our thanks and highest recommendation.

Levertons were excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend them. They made excellent recommendations and went above and beyond in giving my late mother a great send off.

Levertons managed my late mother’s funeral with great care. They coordinated very well with the vicar at St Judes, Hampstead Garden Suburb to find suitable dates and recommended a fabulous florist and a brilliant creative printer for the brochure. A wonderful and moving surprise was the slow walk of the two lady vicars ( Rev Emily Kolltveit ) and Leverton’s Drew Rush in front of the hearse down Meadway to the crematorium after the church service. Holding up the traffic ! My mother would have loved this ! And it was unexpected and moving as my children walked along side. Thank you!

As a family, we have used Levertons for over two decades, and in recent years, Michael Cooney has been my principal point of contact. They have always been superb in every aspect and the service they provided to us on each occasion was simply faultless.

Deborah and her team at Levertons Muswell Hill were absolutely fantastic in arranging and managing my mum's celebration of life. No request was too much and the day was a perfect send off. At such a difficult time, Deborah's professionalism and guidance ensured that we all felt supported and cared for. I couldn't recommend Levertons highly enough.

From when I first met Lorna her sensitivity and professionalism was superb. Myself and my sisters were kept up to date on every aspect. There was no rush or pressure to organise our brothers funeral everything was exceptional at a very difficult time. On the day of the funeral all the staff involved were excellent. Thank you so much for making a difficult time more easier to deal with.

Levertons has a great reputation for a reason. We were so looked after by them, at a really difficult time. Lorna was fabulous and I can't thank her enough

Levertons, and particularly Lorna Walkden, provided a 5star assistance with my mother's funeral. Caring and empathic, the whole experience was made a little easier for me with their guidance and expertise. Big shout out too for Jonathan, the celebrant that was recommended, who led the service with compassion and kindness.
