Funeral prices decline since CMA review
While the like-for-like cost of a funeral has come down in price, direct cremations are now the cheapest funeral of all at the average of just £1,511 as it has now become more widely available

The price of the average funeral is now 2.5% cheaper than it was a year ago, costing around £3,900, according to SunLife’s annual ‘Cost of Dying’ report, as 63% of people in the industry say it has improved as a result of the Competition and Markets Authority review.
