If you have any questions, would like a brochure or simply would like a chat through our services, our award-winning team is here to help.
Unlike other providers, we won’t hassle you with constant calls. We’ll simply ensure you have the information you need and leave you to come to a decision in your own time. When you’re ready for us, our team will be ready to help.
Once you’ve settled on the plan you want, and have decided on your wishes, we will work closely with your family to deliver on them when the time comes. At the point of purchase, you’ll select a loved one or close friend to be your ‘Nominated Representative’; when you pass away, they’ll tell us immediately, and we will guide them step-by-step through what they need to do next. Finally, we’ll use the money we’ve set aside in trust for you, to pay for everything, ensuring that there’s nothing left to pay and no unexpected fuss for your family.
An affordable Aura funeral plan could cost you less than half of last year’s average UK funeral cost, according to SunLife ([£AVERAGE)]. Ours start at £1,595, but to learn more information about our prices, or anything else, feel free to call us on 0800 808 5723 or head to our Funeral Plan page.
Unlike many other funeral plan providers, Aura gladly offers families the option to attend the funerals of their loved ones. With our attended options, families have the chance to arrange a 15-to-45 minute ceremony about their loved one alongside a celebrant or religious minister, who will oversee things on the day.
There are quite a few different factors that need to be considered with organising a funeral. We completely understand that some families prefer to have as much control as possible over the arranging process, and that’s totally okay. That said, for necessary work and legal matters, our fantastic Angel team will be there to make sure everything is in order and that everything proceeds as planned.
As a rule, at Aura we try to avoid giving estimates beforehand, simply because every funeral is as different as the person whom they are commemorating. It’s important to bear that in mind when thinking about funeral plans. However, you can certainly rest assured that we’ll always work as quickly as we can without letting the quality of our service slip. We will also make sure that you are in the know every step of the way about our progress.
