A prepaid funeral plan is a way to arrange and pay for your funeral in advance. Although thinking about your own funeral may be difficult, there are some benefits to organising it ahead of time. It allows you to outline your wishes for the service, ensuring they're respected and providing comfort knowing everything is set according to your preferences. This kind of planning also helps protect your loved ones from the stress of making tough decisions and facing unexpected costs during a difficult time. Aura offers straightforward cremation services with no additional bills for the family. By locking in today's prices, you also guard against future cost increases, offering reassurance to both you and your family that everything is taken care of.
SunLife produces a helpful report each year that uses data to find the national average cost of a funeral. In their 2024 Cost of Dying Report, they place the average cost of a funeral at £4,141. However, at Aura, our starting price is much lower than this at just £1,695. Our price includes all essential services required for a funeral, ensuring there are no hidden fees that might surprise your family later. You may not find this with every provider you look at for your funeral plan in Ormskirk. The cost of prepaid funeral plans can vary depending on the kind of service you want. If you'd like to discuss your options for an unattended or attended direct cremation with Aura, feel free to get in touch with one of our friendly team members.

Our friendly team is always on hand to help you tweak your arrangements to ensure everything aligns with your current wishes.
