Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Newcastle.
From the windy shores of Whitley Bay to the bustling centre of the city, Newcastle has quickly become the thriving business and social centre of the North East. What's more, it is also home to the UK's top-rated direct cremation service provider, Aura.
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 Newcastle.
From the centre of Newcastle to the outer suburbs of Gateshead, Hebburn, Jesmond, North and South Shields, Whitley Bay, Crawcrook, Forest Hall and Longbenton, Aura's family-run funeral services are available for all.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Tyne and Wear, including Houghton Regis, Houghton Regis, Sunderland and Tyseley.
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.

Direct Cremation is a type of funeral whose popularity is growing in the UK, and we tend to find that it is favoured by those who would have wanted a more personal alternative to the formalities of tradition. If your loved one wouldn't have wanted to be escorted in a hearse or have their name written in flowers, then this gives another option, as these things are not normally included. We would be glad to arrange one in Newcastle for you: we would collect your loved one from where they are resting and bring them to the crematorium for their ceremony. Following this, we can either scatter their ashes for you in the garden of remembrance, or we bring them back to you at home personally, whatever you think would be best. It provides a fitting way to honour the memory of your loved one on their terms.
We hope that it makes things just a little easier to bear knowing that it's usually a good deal cheaper than other funerals, due to their more understated style. In fact, an Aura funeral could cost you less than half of what you could pay on average for a funeral in the UK, and we could offer this type of ceremony for you in Newcastle from £1,095. If you are ready to give us a call, we'd be happy to talk to you about what you need, and give you a direct quote.
The fact that every funeral is as unique and special as the person whom they are commemorating is something we see every day, and we would be honoured to help you bring out your loved one's character at their ceremony. There are lots of different ways in which we could help with that: For example, some people want to make sure that their loved one's coffin reflects who they were in life, whether through its design or materials, or even its colours and visual adornments. There are others who want to make sure that they can attend the ceremony in person with friends and family, which is something we can easily arrange even if this kind of ceremony is normally unattended. Whatever ideas you might have, we would be very pleased to hear them; why not give us a call, and we can plan something together that does right by your loved one?
We will always work as hard as we can to deliver things for you in a timely fashion, without settling for lower quality. It might be helpful to bear in mind that each funeral is different, and therefore, much as with the question of cost, the time it takes to arrange everything can vary. We could arrange one of our bespoke funerals for you within a fortnight, but other kinds will need more time. Just as soon as we have had an opportunity to discuss your requirements with you over the phone, we will be able to give you more specific information about how long things might take.
Suddenly finding that you need to plan a funeral -- especially if it was not expected -- can make life difficult at the best of times, and cause lots of additional stress. We want you to know that we understand that, and that we are here to listen to you. Our kind team of Angels are on hand to take all of the administrative pressure off of your shoulders, and to organise everything for you, if that is what you need. Our goal is to make sure that your loved one gets the send off they deserve, and that you are free to be in the moment with friends and family, whether you are in Newcastle or anywhere else in the UK.
