Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Poole.
Home to Europe's largest natural harbour and once famous for its commercial fishing fleet, Poole thrives on its maritime history. But beyond its natural beauty and history, Poole is home to Aura, the UK's top-rated direct cremation service 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 to families throughout Poole.
Aura's family-run, five-star funerals are here to support families across Poole and beyond, including Upton, Corfe Mullen, Wareham, Sandford, Lytchett Matravers and the surrounding areas.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Dorset, including Bournemouth, Christchurch, Dorchester and Weymouth.
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 kind of funeral ceremony that is increasingly favoured by British people. It gives us another option if we are not comfortable with the formalities of a traditional funeral. That means that, if your loved one would have been uneasy having their name written in a big floral tribute, or being borne along in a hearse, then this might be a good option for them, as it provides a more personal alternative. We can simply arrange everything for you in Poole: We would escort your loved one to their ceremony at the crematorium from where they are resting. And then, afterwards, depending on what you would prefer, we can either scatter their ashes on your behalf at the crematorium's own garden of remembrance, or we can personally hand-deliver them to you at home. If you think that this kind of ceremony would be what your loved one would have wanted, if you have questions you'd like to ask us about it, we'd be glad to receive your call.
We would never want to take the expense of a sudden funeral (or the anxiety this can cause) for granted, but, in fact, this kind of ceremony often ends up being a lot cheaper than other kinds of funeral. It may make things just a little bit easier to know that the average cost of a funeral in the UK could end up being more than twice what you could pay with Aura. We could arrange a funeral in Poole for you for as little as £1,095, but the best way to get a direct quote for our services would be to give us a call. Once we have understood exactly how we can help you, we can arrange something that is tailored to your needs.
Every day at Aura, we see how every funeral is special and important in its own way. One of the ways that we can ensure this is the case is by adding personal touches to the ceremony which are true to your loved one, helping the day to feel more memorable. Many people, for example, like to make sure they can attend the ceremony in person with friends and family; even though it is normally fully unattended, we can easily arrange this for you. Others like to provide their loved one with a coffin that shows something of the person they were in life, whether through its design, material, colour, or even the themes it can be adorned with. We'd be very pleased to hear from you over the phone if there is anything at all we can do to help you create a funeral that truly does them justice.
You can rest assured that we will do everything in our power to make things as swift as possible, without letting the quality of our service drop. You might find it helpful to bear in mind that different funerals require different lengths of time to arrange. We could sort everything out in Poole for you within a two-week period, if you've opted for one of our more personalised services, but other options will require more time. Once we've been able to talk together about what you need, we will be better able to give you some specific information about how long things could take.
Aura will be with you every step of the way. Needing all of a sudden to organise a funeral for a loved one, particularly if it was unexpected or if you've never done it before, can be challenging and can provoke feelings of worry. Please don't let this get on top of you -- we are professional funeral planners, and we will be able to answer any question you might have. Our team of Angels are on hand to receive your phone call, to listen to what you have to say, and to plan everything according to your specifications, whether you are in Poole or anywhere else. We want to make sure that your loved one gets the send-off they deserve, and that you are free to focus on what matters at this time, without distractions.
