Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Birmingham.
Much like Birmingham is home to Selfridges and the famous bull, it is also home to the UK’s top-rated prepaid direct cremation plan provider. Aura is a family-run company that provides the UK’s top-rated direct cremation services, whether they’re needed now or in the future. With our cremations, there are no hearses or pallbearers; instead we offer a simple, affordable direct cremation with an optional low-cost service at Waseley Hills crematorium.
Our unattended and attended direct cremation services are available across all suburbs of Birmingham, including Solihull, Marston Green, Rubery, West Bromwich, Redditch, Halesowen and Wednesbury.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of West Midlands, including Acocks Green, Coventry, Edgbaston, Erdington, Harborne, Kingswinford and Wolverhampton.
As a family-run company, it's exactly what we'd want for members of our own family. We deliver on the promises we make to our customers, whether it's in the service that we provide to you or the practices in which we care for your loved one behind the scenes.

A Direct Cremation can be described as being like a normal funeral, but simplified. It allows your loved one to receive a send-off as dignified as that of a standard funeral, but, normally there are no attendees, and extra elements like a hearse or procession are not included. We tend to find that this ceremony fits those who would not have appreciated these heavier formalities, and also with those who would want to put their own stamp on the ceremony. We could arrange one in Birmingham by simply collecting your special person and escorting them to the crematorium. When the ceremony is over, we can then either personally return their ashes to you at home, or have them scattered on your behalf at the crematorium's own beautiful peace garden, depending on what you think would be best.
We would be delighted to give you a quote over the phone for the service you are looking for. A Direct Cremation tends to be more affordable than other kinds of funeral, due to its more stripped back nature, which we hope will be of some comfort to you at this time. An Aura funeral can end up being less than half the cost of the British average, and we could offer one in Birmingham from £1,095, but it will depends on what you have in mind.
By removing some of the traditional elements from the ceremony, we are glad to say that we can make more room for your loved one's personality. Many people like to select the music that will accompany their loved one into the crematorium, choosing a song dear to them, or you could even arrange for a final viewing of them in the chapel of rest. We at Aura will do anything we can to help you do right by your loved one, and give them the kind of goodbye that they would have wanted.
Once we have spoken together, and we have gotten a sense of your needs, we can put a plan in place and give you a more specific timescale for your loved one's ceremony. Each funeral is different, so it isn't easy to give a good estimate before then, but to give you a rough idea, one of our more personalised Aura funerals could be delivered in Birmingham within two weeks. Others will take longer. If you ever feel, whilst we are arranging things for you, that you would like an update on our progress, you are more than welcome to call us. We will also always do our best to keep you in the know, every step of the way, from our side.
We can absolutely support you along the way -- it's what we do best. Our kind team of Angels is ready to receive your call, and to take on the task of planning everything for you, if that is what you feel you need. We will not leave you to worry about the practicalities yourself, and we want to make sure that you have the space you need to let go of the administrative stress, and focus on more important things.
