Once you choose Aura for a direct cremation, we will bring the deceased into our care at one of our state-of-the-art care centres. After that, we’ll help with the preparation of arrangements, and then bring the person who has died to the crematorium for their cremation. Following that, there are a couple of options for their ashes: we can either hand-deliver them to you for a nominal fee, or we can scatter them for you at the crematorium’s own Garden of Remembrance.
Aura is a family-run business, and we are committed to providing high-quality, compassionate care at an affordable price. Our direct cremations offer a dignified, low-cost alternative to traditional funerals, with the option for personalisation.
