The cost of individual funerals is increasing so fast that the number of ‘DIY funerals’ is also growing at an alarming rate in areas throughout the UK so there is a growing need for prepaid funeral plans in Colchester. This is because as many as 20% of all bereaved families are now struggling to give their loved ones the funeral that they would otherwise want to give to them. As a result, some families are now so desperate that they are holding ‘DIY funerals’ in the form of cremations without the completion of any formal religious service or simply having a ‘pauper’s funerals’.
Even those that are able to find the cash to pay for a more traditional funeral are unfortunately turning to ‘payday loan companies’ that provide loans with such extortionate interest rates that serve to leave applicants even deeper in debt that they have little hope of recovering from in areas throughout the country including Colchester. That this has proved to be the case is because the cost of the average funeral has been found to range anywhere between £3,500 to £7000 based on the geographical location where the deceased is to be laid to rest and the specific requirements of an individual family to further emphasis the need for prepaid funeral plans in Colchester. Therefore, although a number of companies now offer cut price, basic services and the government will also provide limited help where people prove they cannot cover the costs, there is a clear need to look to pay for prepaid funeral plans in Colchester as well as other places throughout Essex as prices continue to rise.
