Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Carlisle.
Home to museums, Roman ruins and an ancient castle, Carlisle is teeming with history. But for those who prefer to look forwards to the future, Carlisle is also home to Aura - the UK's top-rated direct cremation service 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 to families throughout Carlisle.
From the inner rings of Carlisle to the outer edges of Bow, Beaumont, Harher, Walby, Cumwhinton, Brisco and beyond, Aura's plans are available to all.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Cumbria, including Lake-district.
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.

It might help you to know that a Direct Cremation would be a fitting option for someone who would like a ceremony that can be personalised, rather than something more inflexible like a traditional funeral. It is an increasingly sought-after type of funeral, and can be attended or fully unattended, depending on what you would like. It means that, if your loved one would have been uncomfortable with the idea of a hearse and pallbearers, you now have another option. We can easily handle the details in Carlisle for you, by bringing your loved one to the crematorium, arranging the ceremony, and returning their ashes to you at home after things have taken place. If you prefer, we can scatter them on your behalf at the special garden of the crematorium. We would be honoured to help you do right by your loved one, and give them the dignified and concise send off that they would have wanted.
We would be pleased to talk to you about your options over the phone, and give you a clear price that you can work with. In general, this type of funeral is usually less expensive than other kinds available. We hope that it also makes this time just a little bit easier, knowing that the average cost of a funeral in the UK could be more than twice the cost of an Aura funeral: we could provide one in Carlisle for you from £1,095.
We are specialists in personalising funerals to reflect the personalities of those being honoured, and the wishes of their families. We would be very glad to assist you with this, and we have lots of ways that we can help: For example, you could choose a favourite song of your loved one to accompany their entry into the crematorium before the ceremony. Others like to make sure that the celebrant who will lead the service has some personalised words which they can say about your loved one as it begins. We'd be very pleased to hear from you over the phone if you would like our support in personalising things.
We can share more specific information about timescales with you just as soon as we've had a chance to talk together about your needs, and how we can accommodate them. We offer many different kinds of funeral, and each funeral is different in its own way, which means that they may take different lengths of time to organise. We could organise one of our more bespoke ceremonies in Carlisle within a fortnight, but other kinds of funeral will take longer to arrange. We can promise that we will always keep you updated at every stage, and that you are more than welcome to call us whenever you need, should you require a more specific update.
We at Aura are here for you throughout this time as much or as little as you might need. Anxiety relating to unexpectedly needing to plan a funeral is something that we frequently see at Aura, and we want you to know that you are not alone. Our experienced team of Angels is on hand to listen to you, and to handle all of the legwork of planning and arranging, if that is what you need. We want to be able to free you up from the hassle of admin, so that you are able to focus on more important matters.
