If you have any questions, would like a brochure or simply would like a chat through our services, our award-winning team is here to help.
Unlike other providers, we won’t hassle you with constant calls. We’ll simply ensure you have the information you need and leave you to come to a decision in your own time. When you’re ready for us, our team will be ready to help.
A prepaid funeral plan allows you to decide on and pay for your funeral services in advance, locking in today’s prices and guarding against future cost rises or potential inflation. When you die, your ‘Nominated Representative’ (a trusted loved one or friend) will inform us as soon as possible. At that point, we’ll bring you into our care and use the money we’ve set aside for you to pay for everything. After your cremation, we can either hand-deliver your ashes to your family at home or scatter them on their behalf at the crematorium’s own Garden of Remembrance.
Aura’s prepaid funeral plans in Chelmsford start at £1,595. We are glad to offer you an option which begins at less than half the average cost of a traditional UK funeral, which, according to SunLife, was £4,141 last year. By locking in your plan now, you protect your family from future price increases. To get your own tailored funeral plan quote, you can call a member of our helpful team.
Unlike many other providers, Aura is pleased to offer the option of attended funeral plans if that’s what you’d prefer. They start at £2,195, and will allow your family to come together at a local crematorium in Chelmsford to celebrate your life. We’d be happy to help your family connect with an independent celebrant or someone from the religious community who can help them to personalise a ceremony around your life-story, and deliver it on the day.
At Aura, we believe in empowering the families who’ve put their trust in us to be as flexible as possible. That’s why we allow you to cancel or amend your plan at any time, for any reason, with no administration fee. We want you to feel comfortable with your decision to choose us for your funeral planning needs.

With no hidden fees and full protection for your plan, you can plan your future and enjoy the peace of mind that our funeral plans bestow.
