The Independent Way

A funeral plan created for you by Bungard & Sons Limited.

For many people, planning their funeral has become an established way of looking at the future, just like making a will.

More than 650,000 people in Great Britain have taken out a funeral plan. Usually they have known the grief of bereavement and don’t want their families to go through the stress of making arrangements.

Many have established a relationship of trust with their local family funeral director. Who better to advise them on such a sensitive topic and assist them with all the details?

We believe that the Independent Way funeral plan, which is available only through independent funeral directors such as ourselves, offers you significant advantages over other plans.

A beautiful way to be remembered

When you purchase an Independent Way plan, you will be given a free benefit - a living legacy for you, your family and your friends to enjoy. A tree will be planted on your behalf with the Woodland Trust, the UK's leading woodland conservation charity. The organisation has planted almost six million native and broadleaved trees such as oak, ash and beech, replacing trees lost and creating new woodland. You will recieve a certificate to record the planting and, although it is not possible to specify the type of tree or its location, we will enclose information on Woodland trust sites.

Since 1995 over 150,000 trees have already been planted through Golden Charter's exclusive arrangement with Woodland Trust which is our way of making sure your decision to choose the Independent Way will benefit future generations.
