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.

The funeral, including the arrangements, were conducted in the most professional and efficient manner. The staff were most helpful in addressing my questions and queries which ensured that the day of the funeral went as smoothly as possible. An excellent service was provided by Leverton & Sons Ltd.

From the moment we contacted Leverton & Sons Funeral Directors, we were met with the most professional and compassionate service we could have hoped for. Their care and attention to detail were impeccable from start to finish. The removal of our mum’s body was handled with such kindness and respect, which gave us great comfort during such a difficult time. They guided us every step of the way, offering invaluable advice and assistance with obtaining the death certificate and making all the funeral arrangements. Even when it came to smaller details, like recommending a florist, their support was outstanding. On the day of the funeral, everything went seamlessly, a testament to their professionalism and dedication. The team at Leverton were not just professional but also incredibly caring throughout the process. We cannot fault their service and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of compassionate funeral care.

I cannot thank Levertons enough for planning my mother’s funeral. Every detail was handled with such care and respect and nothing was too much trouble. Deborah went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect allowing us to focus on honouring her memory.

We booked Levertons for our mum’s funeral and couldn’t have asked for more help to organise everything as we wished. Everything was completed with an empathy and care from the original phone call to the sorting out of the account. I would have no hesitation in recommending Levertons.
