We’ve put all our expertise into these free guides to help you get to grips with everything to do with death.
We all have worries that our family will be looked after once we are gone. Your funeral is one of the things that will need to be dealt with, so it is no surprise many people are planning ahead and buying a Crystal pre-paid plan.

Often having a conversation with your loved ones about your “death plans” can be hard to initiate but here at Crystal we can offer some ideas on how you can help them to understand your reason for wanting that conversation.

A Direct Cremation is a simple low-cost budget funeral that in recent years have become increasingly popular.

Your Questions, Answered
Some of the UK’s leading funeral providers use Trusts to secure customers funds to cover the cost of their chosen funeral plan. Crystal Funeral Plans consider the security of our customers funds a priority. Your money will be placed into the secure and independently managed Crystal Funeral Planning Trust. Every year we undergo a full independent audit by JW Hinks auditors https://www.jwhinks.co.uk/ and our actuary David Downie at WBR Actuarial Ltd, https://wbrgroup.co.uk/ produces a solvency assessment report for our customers viewing and reassurance. The FCA state that we are required to maintain a trust solvency level of 110%. This is monitored and supervised by the FCA. We maintain this solvency level by investing your money in order that it keeps in line with inflation. We have an experienced team of financial managers at LGT Vestra https://www.lgtwm.com/uk-en who ensure our investments maintain growth whilst minimising risk and protecting our clients funds.
The Crystal Trust ( as per latest SAR) is 124%. So rest assured your money is and always will be safe with Crystal Funeral Planning.
When your funeral plan is needed the Trust simply requires an invoice, proof of death and authorisation from two trustees in order that funds are released.
We will provide you or your nominated representative with the information needed so they will know exactly what to do when the time comes.
With our Direct Cremation plan there are no additional services offered. This is due to the unique nature of this particular service. However, if you would like additional services then take a look at our Crystal Celebration of Life Plan or our Traditional Funeral Plan.
Also our plan comparison table above shows the differences between the plans.
Please note that some additional services can only be added at the time of need, such as collection of the deceased from a place other than a hospital, hospice or mortuary.
There is no service with the Direct Cremation Plan. We created this plan to cater for the significant number of customers who requested a ‘no fuss’ option. Please take a look at the plan for further details. However, we have found that some customers would like the opportunity to attend a service which is why we created our Crystal Celebration of Life Plan and our Traditional Plan
After all..... “It's your funeral, your way”.
After the cremation takes place the ashes are placed into our very own eco friendly cremation box. The ashes are then transported to you so that you can choose how to say goodbye.
The box is designed so that the ashes can easily be transferred to another container or URN.
If Crystal Funeral Planning goes out of business the Trust will appoint a new provider and write to each plan holder to offer two options:
- Keep the plan active with the newly trust appointed provider
- A refund
The Trust holding client funds is managed by an independent board who's primary role is to guarantee and protect client funds.
Crystal Plan Holders are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
*The cost of Crystal Funeral Plans varies depending on what they include.
Instalment payment options may not be suitable or available if you have been diagnosed with an illness or condition which means you are likely to pass away within the next 12 months.
