Once you select Aura for a direct cremation in Torquay, we will bring the person who has passed into our care, where they will rest in our state-of-the-art facilities.

We will notify you of the date and time of the cremation so you can mark this moment in any way you wish.
Arranging a funeral can vary depending on your circumstances, but with Aura, direct cremations are typically arranged within a few days to a few weeks.
