Fair Funerals Pledge
Updated
Here at Pearce Funeral Services, we are very proud to announce that we have signed up to the Fair Funeral Pledge.
The purpose of the pledge is to encourage funeral directors across the UK to address the national funeral poverty crisis from within the funeral industry. Around 35% of funeral directors across the UK have now signed up the pledge.
By signing the pledge, we are recognising that funerals can be expensive and that many people struggle with the cost. We have made a commitment to be open with our families about the costs involved in funerals and to ensure that we always offer the most affordable options to help them to plan a funeral that is within their means.
We will always do this with courtesy and respect, for both your loved one and yourself, listening to your wishes and guiding you with all options available to ensure you can say goodbye in the most fitting way.
Pearce Funeral Services have signed the Funerals pledge 2020, making the following voluntary commitment:
- We will help people to find funerals that are within their means.
- We will be open about the price of our services, including third party costs:
- In initial conversations
