Plan ahead, for the people you love
A funeral is their chance to say goodbye. Planning yours now means they won’t have to guess what you’d want.
A plan fixes the price of our services today, leaving your family less to arrange and pay, and room to make the day their own. Talk to our local team on South Street, at home or by video, in your own time.

Three ways to start
Write down your wishes
It’s free, and you don’t need to buy a plan. Note down what matters to you, then share it with the people closest to you.
Pay for it in advance
Pay for our funeral director services now, through a plan from Golden Leaves, our FCA-regulated provider. That part is then already taken care of when it’s needed.
One payment or monthly
Pay in one go, or spread the cost. Over 12 months there’s no extra charge. Over longer terms, up to 10 years, an instalment charge applies. We’ll explain each option when we meet.
Our plans and prices
All our plans can be for burial or a cremation. Every price includes the £325 Golden Leaves administration charge. Third-party costs, such as the crematorium fee, are explained below.
Want something different? We’ll build a plan around you, from music and readings to a woodland burial. Ask us about a bespoke plan.
Every plan includes: collection day or night, care of the person who has died, help registering the death and with paperwork, an arrangement meeting at our funeral home, visiting in office hours, and a hearse and bearers.

Plans cover our funeral director services, at a price fixed when you buy. Third-party costs, such as the crematorium, minister or celebrant, and doctors’ fees, are paid separately unless you add cover, and burial plans don’t include buying the grave. At Eastbourne Crematorium, a standard service is currently £900.
You can add a contribution towards these costs now, or for a cremation, cover them with the Golden Leaves Third Party Fees Guarantee. We’ll explain the options when we meet.

Why Haine & Son?
At Haine & Son, Eastbourne, we are proud of our long family history of providing funeral services for more than 330 years.
We believe every life is a unique story, deserving a celebration that reflects its essence. That’s why we offer personalised, high-quality pre-paid funeral plans. These plans ensure the ones closest to you are spared the financial and emotional burden of delivering your final wishes, allowing them to focus on what truly matters: celebrating your life.
Our team is the heart of Haine & Son. Experienced and deeply caring, they receive extensive training through our academy. Their compassion ensures you’re guided with understanding every step of the way. Whenever you need us, we’re here for you.
We’re proud to serve communities across the South Coast, including Eastbourne and its surrounding towns.
How is my money protected?
Your money is kept separate from us. When you pay in one go or over 12 months, it’s held in the independent Golden Leaves Trust until it’s needed. Longer terms are arranged through Funeral Safe, Golden Leaves’ instalment partner. Golden Leaves is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, so if anything goes wrong, you can take your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Can I cancel?
Yes. If you change your mind within 30 days, you’ll get a full refund. If you’re paying monthly, that applies for the whole first 12 months. After that, you’ll get your money back, less the £325 administration charge and, on longer terms, half of the instalment charges you’ve paid.
What if I die before I’ve finished paying?
If you’re paying monthly, accidental death is covered from the start, and you’re fully covered after 12 months. If death from natural causes happens in those first 12 months, everything you’ve paid is returned to your estate, so your family can put it towards the funeral.
Is there an age limit?
Anyone aged 18 or over can take out a plan. If you’re paying monthly over more than 12 months, the last payment needs to be made before your 80th birthday.
Can I plan for a parent?
Yes. Many people start the conversation for a parent, often from a distance. Our conversation guide has some gentle ways to begin, and you can join a video call together when you’re ready. We’ll always talk with your parent, so the plan reflects what they want.
What if I move away from Eastbourne?
Your plan can move with you. We can transfer it to one of our other funeral homes, or Golden Leaves can arrange a funeral director near your new home.
Ready to discuss your funeral plan needs?
Book an appointment
Find your local funeral director to book an appointment to discuss your funeral plan preferences.
Not ready to choose a funeral plan?
You don’t have to make every decision now.
Our Funeral Wishes form gives you somewhere to write down what you’d want, from burial or cremation to music, readings and the kind of funeral you’d like.
You can fill it in on screen or print it and write by hand.
Why it helps to talk about your wishes
Writing your wishes down can make things a little easier for the people closest to you. It means they won’t be left wondering what you would have wanted.
It can help to talk about your wishes too. A funeral is about the person who has died, but it’s also an important time for family and friends to come together, remember them and say goodbye.
Sometimes what you would prefer and what those closest to you may need aren’t exactly the same. Talking about it now can help everyone understand what matters most.
Once you’ve filled it in
Keep your completed form somewhere safe, and let the people closest to you know where to find it.
If you’d like us to keep a copy too, you can email it to [email protected] or bring it into your local funeral home.
