About Celebration of Life

We specialise in offering simple and affordable funerals for families across Great Britain with unrivalled in-house customer support.

How do we stand out?

Our service is incredibly easy to arrange

Friendly and experienced in-house customer service team

Transparent information and pricing

Unbeatable value for our at-need service and prepaid plan

We stand out from other providers in subtle ways and all are things we've learnt by listening to our customers.

If you request a plan brochure from us, we don't chase or pester you. We know you'll buy when you're ready.

Our prepaid plan really is fully inclusive. When you read the small print on many other plans, you'll notice extra charges for things like doctors' fees, ashes return, pacemaker removal and urgent collections. Not with us!

When it comes to the cremation, we keep the family updated throughout and even let them know the date and time it will take place.

Ashes are delivered in a beautiful biodegradable urn that can be buried in the ground or used to scatter the ashes somewhere special.

We also donate to plant a tree in memory for every service we do. We then send you our dedication certificate after our service is complete.

It can be a difficult time for family, so our aim is to make it that little bit easier where we can and clients will often comment to that effect. But don't take our word for it; take a look at our reviews!

A tree planted in memory

Celebration of Life™ donate to plant a tree with the National Trust 'Plant a Tree Fund' for every service we do. A certificate is provided in memory of your loved one.

"We started this company out of a frustration with the solemn and outdated Victorian funeral tradition, far removed from today’s preference for a celebration of life.

It’s been important for us to set ourselves apart and move away from the stuffy convention and obscure pricing on the high street.

When designing our funeral plan we considered the qualities we would want, being a friendly and reliable service with a transparent, fully inclusive price and an affordable way to pay.

If you would like a simple cremation do let us know, we’d be pleased to help."
