Jennifer Ashe and Son has announced a new partnership with Ecclesiastical Planning Services, a national pre-paid funeral plan provider.
The family-run business will be able to offer pre-paid funeral plans with Ecclesiastical, which works with over 850 funeral directing outlets across the UK.
John Ashe, MD at Jennifer Ashe and Son Funeral Directors, said: “We’re delighted to be working with Ecclesiastical. We hold many shared values including putting customers first and an open and honest approach.
“Given the sustained cost of living crisis at the moment and families’ desire to ensure their loved ones aren’t faced with unexpected bills – such as the price of a funeral – we know there is real need for reliable, cost-effective funeral plans in our region.”
He added: “We’re looking forward to sharing the details of our pre-payment solutions and funeral wishes options with local people in the coming months.”
Emma Simpson, marketing manager at Ecclesiastical, said: “We have always advocated talking to a local funeral director to make funeral arrangements – this way, the individual benefits from their regional knowledge and expertise.
“The customer also has more control over what they would like their plan to include – local options can be discussed and the customer only pays for the services they really want. We always encourage people to discuss their funeral wishes in advance, so family and friends are not left guessing at the time of need.”
