When it comes to end-of-life preparations, a prepaid funeral plan is a great step towards arranging the kind of funeral service you want. Not only are you making your final wishes known, but you also are helping to relieve financial and organisational worries from your family. They can have the peace of mind that you'll have the send-off you wanted. Plus, prepaid funeral plans help you secure current costs and prevent possible funeral price increases from impacting your loved ones. So, if you want a bit more control over your final farewell, a prepaid funeral plan can be a helping hand.
Understanding the financial implications of your final wishes and funeral arrangements can be challenging. At Aura, we're dedicated to easing this process with our funeral plans in Melrose. Our prices start at £1,695. This rate, as highlighted in the SunLife 2024 Cost of Dying Report, is much lower than the UK average of £4,141. Our goal is to provide you with an affordable option without compromising the dignity and personalisation your memorial deserves. Your peace of mind is important to us, so feel free to reach out for a chat or request a quote through our website to learn more.
Whether you're considering making changes or have questions about upgrading your plan, our team is ready to support you. Flexibility is a key component of Aura's funeral plans and we understand your wishes may evolve over time. Making any changes is hassle-free and won't cost you anything, even if you should wish to cancel. Please be aware that if you do want to enhance your plan with extra services, an additional fee would apply for that service. For those in Melrose, or elsewhere in the country, you are always welcome to give us a call to discuss your options.
We understand the importance of saying goodbye in a way that truly reflects you. Our direct cremation plans strip away the complexities of traditional funerals, focusing instead on what matters most: honouring your life in a personal and meaningful way. By choosing Aura, you'll have the opportunity to designate a trusted individual to act on your behalf. Your nominated representative will receive our full support—from guidance on necessary documentation to organising a ceremony that mirrors your wishes, should you want an attended service. Your plan, which will have been paid for in advance, can then be enacted just as you imagined.
Aura stands out in the industry as a family-run funeral service provider deeply committed to a people-focused approach.
