What is National Funeral Planning Awareness Week 2027?
National Funeral Planning Awareness Week 2027 runs from Monday 22 February 2027 to Monday 1 March 2027.
National Funeral Planning Awareness Week was established by Golden Charter to encourage people throughout the UK to reflect on their funeral wishes and take the important step of having a conversation with loved ones about them.
We understand that bringing funerals into the conversation can be challenging and, quite honestly, something you’d rather put off for another day. But we see the comfort and reassurance that planning a funeral can bring, not just to our plan holders, but to the family and friends they leave behind.
