ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Every years funeral directors across the nation are frustrated by the SunLife 'Cost of Dying' report, which doesn't seem to truly capture what it promises.
So this year, The National Society Of Allied And Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF) has aimed to address this with a new report titled 'What is the real average cost of a funeral in the UK in 2024?'
In this episode, Dec Maguire – both National and Scottish president of the society – discusses the report with host Malcolm Flanders. They look at the methodology behind the project, the hidden impact of direct cremation, and the interesting generational changes in how we approach end of life.
