PrePaid Plans

Our Prepaid Funeral Plans

Plan ahead with comfort, clarity, and confidence

Choosing to prepay gives you - and your loved ones - peace of mind. You set your wishes today, lock in the funeral costs, and ensure that everything is handled thoughtfully when the time comes.

Preparing with peace of mind

  • Fix today's prices for professional services.
  • Choose your funeral style - from quiet ceremonies to full services.
  • Enjoy transparent guidance, with no hidden fees.
  • Flexibility to update your plan as your wishes evolve.

Partnering with Open Prepaid Funerals

We've partnered with Open Prepaid Funerals, a trusted, independent provider, to offer fully regulated prepaid plans.

This means that:

  • Your funds are managed in a secure regulated Trust Fund.
  • We remain by your side, providing the same compassionate service - now, and when the time comes.

How it works

Prepaid plans are now regulated by the Government, giving you peace of mind about how the plans are sold and that your money is looked after.

Under the regulations:

  • We can talk about the arrangements that you'd like to make for the funeral itself.
  • We can introduce you to an Open Adviser and book an appointment with them for you, and we can be present at the meeting if you like.
  • We can't take a plan out with you, or talk to you about any of the details of a prepaid funeral plan.

Why choose a prepaid funeral plan?

  • Your loved ones are spared financial stress.
  • Stable funeral directors' costs, unaffected by future price rises.
  • Peace of mind knowing your wishes guide the funeral.
  • Regulated protection.

You will get a plan tailored to your wishes and instructions - with care, respect, and clear support. Simply get in touch with us and we will arrange an appointment with an Open Adviser or you can contact Open directly on 0300 660 0072 to get the process started.

Julie at Levertons was absolutely lovely. It's a time when you're not thinking straight but Julie led us through the process of planning Mum's funeral with real patience and humour. This a great local business and I thoroughly recommend them.

I had never arranged a funeral before and when my brother died I made a leap of faith and chose Leverton & Sons as the funeral directors. I could not have chosen better. From the moment I spoke to Andrew Leverton I knew I was in kind and careful hands. Throughout the process from the collection of my brother from the hospital to the final service I felt supported and guided. Andrew Leverton was always available to speak to me on the phone and gave me thoughtful advice on the contents of the service, the choice of crematorium and recommended an excellent celebrant. The service for my brother was carried out with great dignity and professionalism. I would like to add special thanks to our driver for his kindness. I would recommend Leverton & Sons wholeheartedly.

Deborah was unstintingly thoughtful and compassionate throughout what was a very difficult time, taking care to explain everything clearly and sensitively, and all the other members of her team I spoke to were just as considerate. I really, really cannot recommend Leverton and Sons highly enough.

I genuinely can't put into words how amazing Lorna and the rest of the team have been in my recent experience of arranging my father's funeral. It's the first time in my life that I've really had to engage and deal with death, let alone having to arrange a funeral after the death of a parent. Needless to say, it's been a difficult time. Lorna at the Kentish Town branch has been supportive, compassionate, sensitive, endlessly knowledgeable and, above all, patient with me during this entire time. The result has been an amazing send off for my father - one that he deserved. Funeral directors are one of those services that we hope we won't have to use again, but if the time comes, I won't hesitate to return back to Levertons. Thank you all so much.

Dear lorna, as a family we have been using Levertons for around 30 years. as a family we could not have asked for a better service from you. Politeness, explaining step by step what will happen. Answering all your questions, emails and genuinely always willing to help. I personally wouldn't want to use any other funeral director... Levertons give you everything you need. Thank you Levertons
