Our compassionate Aura Angels are here to support you every step of the way.
Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Rotherham.
Aura is a family business, and our compassionate care is inspired by the story of our founder, Paul Jameson. Back in 2017, he was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, and he decided to found Aura with his son Dave, and family friend Ben, in order to share what he’d learned about end-of-life planning with families in the UK. We only offer the quality of service to families in Rotherham that Paul would expect for his own family.
Rotherham boasts a lustrous heritage of coal and steel industrial production. A historic market town sitting astride the banks of the Rivers Don and Rother, Rotherham is home to Aura, where it proudly extends its family-run direct cremation services to families in Rotherham and beyond. You can find Aura in Rotherham, Aston, Anston, Aughton, Bramley and beyond.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Yorkshire, including Barnsley, Bingley, Bradford, Bramhope, Doncaster, Garforth, Harrogate, Huddersfield, Hull, Leeds, Middlesbrough, Scarborough, Sheffield, Thirsk and York.
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. You can read more about our processes. Don't just take our word for it, see how we compare to the others.

We will respectfully bring your loved one to the crematorium in a private ambulance on the day of their cremation. We also offer the choice to have music that was dear to them playing as they are carried into the chapel and placed on the catafalque, if you would like. As soon after the ceremony as possible, the cremation will proceed. We can scatter their ashes at the crematorium itself, or return them to you in Rotherham or anywhere else in mainland Britain.
We hope it is reassuring to know that our direct cremation services could be available to you from less than half of last year’s average UK funeral cost, according to data given by SunLife, which was £4,141. Our direct cremation services in Rotherham start at £1,095.
We know how important it is to some families in Rotherham to be able to attend the cremation ceremony of their loved one. That’s why we can also offer you the chance to say goodbye in person. We offer two types of attended service: one with a ceremony lasting up to 15 minutes for 15 people, and another lasting up to 45 minutes for as many as the crematorium can hold. You can find out more about our attended direct cremations by clicking the link.
We understand that for some people it’s important to be able to handle the admin themselves, and we certainly won’t intrude if that’s what you’d like. There are certain pieces of paperwork that need to be completed before a cremation can proceed, and our Angel team will be on hand to support you where necessary and make sure that everything is in order.
It’s not possible to provide an estimate at the outset, unfortunately, as every funeral ceremony is as different as the one whom they are honouring. That said, we will always work as hard as we can to ensure things move ahead promptly and smoothly. We will also make sure that you are updated readily every step of the way. Should you have any questions from your side, we’re here to help when you need us.
