The Funeral Trust
The Funeral Trust has been specifically designed to help you set money aside for your final farewell or for your loved one.
Your contributions will be held on trust by the Trustee until they are needed, in accordance with the terms of The Funeral Trust’s Trust Deed. This reduces money worries for families and avoids them having to go through any legal requirements to access money from an estate to pay for the funeral.
As a recognised funeral plan contributions up to $10,000 are currently exempt from asset testing when assessing eligibility for a subsidy for long-term residential care.
​
​
Prepaying towards a funeral means when the time comes loved ones can gather together, support one another, and remember and celebrate a life, without the responsibility of making difficult choices in very emotional circumstances.
