Why Golden Charter?

Golden Charter has been  providing funeral plans since 1990 and is a member of the Funeral Planning Authority, meaning that we adhere to a set of rules and a code of practice, offering protection for your clients. We work with over 3,000 independent Funeral Directors giving us unrivalled* coverage in the UK.

The Golden Charter Trust

Our trust’s current valuation is £761m**and is more than 100% funded. This means that there is sufficient cash available to pay for all plan holders’ future funerals, rising in line with the Consumer Price Index.

We allocate at time of purchase

Some providers don’t allocate a plan to a funeral director until the funeral itself is needed meaning the plan holder will never know which funeral director will be chosen or whether they will be local to them. Allocation at point of purchase means the funeral director enters into an agreement confirming that they will conduct the funeral, as laid out in the plan, at an agreed cost.
