It alleviates your family of the emotional and financial burden of planning your farewell,
while giving you control over all the essential choices.

With Olsens Farewells prepaid options, you can work with our skilled advisers to plan a personalised
farewell based on your unique vision.

Besides reducing the strain on your loved ones, our prepaid offering has many financial benefits such as fixed price, maximisation of pension entitlements and capped costs.
