A BURNHAM-on-Sea funeral directors is holding an open day for residents interested in learning about the benefits of funeral planning. 

P.J.Harris based on Cross Street will be opening its doors on June 7 to give residents the chance to view the facilities at the funeral home and learn about the benefits of their Dignity Funeral Plan. 

 “More and more people are pre-arranging their funerals these days." said Vincent Young, business manager at P.J.Harris.

"People often purchase a funeral plan to make sure their loved ones don’t have to make difficult decisions about their funeral arrangements.

"Other people purchase a Dignity Funeral Plan from us so that they know that the funeral director services are paid for at today’s prices, regardless of how far in the future the service takes place.

"This means that in these times of financial uncertainty, their loved ones are saved from paying for the entire funeral.

 “We are inviting people who are interested in finding out more about funeral plans to come to P.J.Harris where we will be available to answer questions on funeral plans or any other aspect of arranging a funeral.”

Visitors who attend the funeral plan open day will receive a discount voucher entitling them to £100 off the Dignity Funeral Plan. 

The event will run from 10am to 2pm on June 7.
