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.

Leverton & Sons looked after us when our mother passed in October 2016, and once again, when our father passed in September 2024. They are the most patient and professional people. They never once tried to upsell any extra services. Julie, thank you for your patience when we grew frustrated with it all. And, most of all, thank you for looking after both our parents with such dignity.

Very professional and thoughtful throughout, at a difficult time for anyone. I have no criticisms. Indeed I specifically reported to my family the high quality of the service that Leverton and Sons provides. Mark dealt with our arrangements, and he and the other staff were consistently kind.

INFORMATIVE, KIND AND EFFICIENT SERVICE

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the support you provided during this difficult time. You were all truly fantastic. The passing of my aunt was unexpected, and while I was stuck in Trinidad, one of her neighbors recommended you to me. From the very beginning, you held my hand, guiding me step by step and addressing all my questions with patience and care. You asked thoughtful questions that I hadn't even considered, and your presence at the service was invaluable, as we were unsure of what to do. Your coordination with the coroner and cremation site was seamless, and I am genuinely grateful for everything you did. Although I don't reside in the UK, I will certainly recommend your services to others, even if it’s rare for me to do so. Everything went so smoothly, and I truly appreciate your understanding of my situation as someone living abroad. The empathy and care you showed were unexpected and deeply appreciated. Thank you once again for everything.
