Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Kent.
Known as the 'Garden of England', Kent is enriched with blooming orchards, stunning greenery within the Kent Downs and great history. But for those wanting to look ahead, Kent is also home to Aura - the UK's top-rated prepaid direct cremation 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 with an optional low-cost service at Charing Crematorium.
Aura's services are available across all of Kent, including Challock, Charing, Aldington, Ashford, Woodchurch, Hythe, Folkstone and the surrounding areas.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Kent, including Canterbury, Folkestone, Gravesend, Rochester, Sittingbourne and Whittlesey.
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.

Each day at Aura, we see how no two funerals are alike, and whether Direct Cremation is a good option for your loved one will depend on what they would have wanted. It's a form of funeral which provides another choice for people who wouldn't have been keen on typical formalities like floral tributes and hearses; it is also usually unattended, but doesn't need to be if that's not what you would like. If you are looking for one in Kent, we can arrange for your loved one to be brought to the crematorium, undergo cremation, and then we can either personally return their ashes to you, or scatter them in the crematorium's own garden of remembrance. We can give you the kind of ceremony that your loved one would have wanted.
We hope it makes things feel just a little more bearable to know that this type of ceremony is likely to be the cheapest option available due to its more streamlined style. Aura can provide one in Kent for as little as £1,095, and our funerals could cost less than half of the average price of British funeral. If you are ready to have a chat with us over the phone about what you'd like, we can give you a direct quote.
Yes, there is plenty of scope for your input during this process, and many ways in which we can help. While this type ceremony is typically the least elaborate option available, you can still add little touches that make it unique. Touches like the music to be played when your loved one enters the crematorium (if any, of course). The words spoken beforehand by the crematorium chaplain could also be chosen by you, and really help the day to be more special and memorable. If there is anything at all you think Aura could do to assist you in commemorating your loved one, you have only to call us -- we would be very pleased to hear from you.
Aura offers many different kinds of funeral, and each one needs its own length of time to be delivered. If you decided that the more specialised service provided by Aura would be right for your loved one, we could arrange everything in Kent within two weeks. But in practice, every ceremony is different, and other types of funeral can take longer to arrange and deliver. However, whatever you decide, we are committed to making sure that organise things as quickly as possible, and keep you updated at every opportunity.
We at Aura, whether you are in Kent or anywhere else, are ready to support you over the phone whenever you need us. We have a specially trained team of Angels on hand who will take the lead in organising everything, if that is what you would like. It's our job to give you the headspace you need to focus on more important matters than admin during this difficult time.
