The Caterham Funeral Parlour is a family-run business that understands how many people are struggling with the current financial challenges of day to day life.

When a loved one has passed away, the last thing families or friends want to worry about is how to pay for the funeral service, memorial or reception.

With this very much in mind, Caterham Funeral Parlour is offering to spread the cost of a funeral over one to five years with monthly payments.

Russell Holt, owner of the Caterham Funeral Parlour, says: "Being able to pay for a funeral in instalments takes away the pressure of finding the money at a difficult and stressful time, enabling families to give their loved one the very best send-off. We want to give families choice and help them as much as possible with the arrangements."

He adds: "With cremation and burial costs on the rise each year we know it is getting harder to find the money, especially with so many people unemployed at present. We are here to look after families at their time of loss and ease the financial worry that so often comes when a loved one has died."

Russell says that families with poor credit or on benefits can normally be accepted.

Flexible 12 to 60 month options are available and families should have no more worries about finding the money or waiting for benefit decisions.
