Integrity Funeral Plan.
We Plan ahead for the important things in our lives.
Planning ahead is a natural thing for us all to do. We plan for our children’s education, weddings, a family
holiday; all those things that we as families do that are joyful, that are intended to be positive happy times to
look forward to and enjoy. As families we prepare for our future by investing wisely, enacting insurances, and
providing superannuation. That preparation is designed to protect our family’s future and well being.
Unfortunately, very few people plan ahead for a funeral because of the emotional cost. Such planning centres on a
sad and possibly traumatic event in our lives, a time we are not looking forward to; a time of loss, and a time of
hurt. Unless forced into the situation, most families often do not even discuss what should happen if someone they
love dies.
Consequently they are left powerless at a time when they are most vulnerable. Decisions must be made quickly and
these decisions, once put into place, can never be changed. At such a time, families are often left wondering if
they have done the right thing. Have they done what their deceased loved one would have wanted? Sometimes they are
left with debt they cannot afford because of funeral expenses.
The process you are entering into is perhaps the most caring and thoughtful gesture you can make to someone you
care for because you are leaving them nothing to do, no major costs to pay, and no decisions to make. You are
leaving them simply the best chance to recover from the loss of someone important and more importantly you are
ensuring they know that they have done the right thing.
The advantages of planning ahead.
| What you are doing is not just about prepaying and safeguarding the cost of funeral
expenses. It is about recording your funeral wishes in order to remove from your family’s mind all
doubt about how they should plan and conduct a funeral for you when the time comes. You can
download the Integrity Funerals Personal Choices Program booklet
here. We would like to assist you with its use as an information gathering or discussion tool
with your family. The many decisions you make personally or as a family must be carefully recorded
and secured in a safe place to which the important people in your life have access to if you are
not here. |
Once you have made these decisions with our support, it is our wish and responsibility
to make the day you have prepared for, the most remembered and significant day in the life of your
family. Often the last gift we give to ourselves or to someone we love is a funeral. We endeavour
to provide an experience that families can look back on, while sometimes bittersweet, and remember
with assurance and confidence that all was done to make the funeral day a unique, personal, and
cherished occasion. |
Safety and Security
| The Integrity Funeral Plan of Australia is administered by the Integrity Funerals

Brisbane. The actions of the Integrity Funeral Plan of Australia are accredited and regulated by
the Corporations Act and Life Insurance Act 1995 and are regularly audited by the Office of Fair
Trading as are all funeral benefit businesses. In addition, as a trust fund we are required to be

with laws and regulations governed by ASIC and other relevant government bodies. |
As a funeral business, Integrity Funerals has been actively involved with the
prepayment of funerals since its inception in 1987. Owing to regulations, this type of service
could only be provided through bonds held and insurances provided by third party financial
institutions for our clients. It is our desire to give our valued clients, people who believe in
Australian companies and products, a distinctly unique service not only in preparing for the future
but when the time comes. We will ultimately provide a service that is unique, personal, and
Australian - that has some heart to it and some real people at the end of it. |
