Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Worcester.
As the birthplace of Edward Elgar and with its historic Cathedral grounds, Worcester is teeming with history and culture. But for those who would rather think about the future, Worcester is also home to Aura, the UK's top-rated prepaid direct cremation plan 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 with an optional low-cost service at Vale Crematorium.
Aura offers attended and unattended direct cremation funeral plans to all across Worcestershire, including Kempsey, Malvern, Pershore, Evesham, Fladbury, Spetchley, Pinvin and the surrounding areas.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Worcestershire, including Kidderminster.
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.

Certainly -- in many ways, a Direct Cremation works just like a normal funeral, but with a few key differences. Firstly, there are usually no guests, and that means that a lot of the typical elements are also dispensed with, such as a hearse or floral tributes. It's becoming an increasingly popular choice of Brits, not just those from Worcester. We can guide the whole process, from collecting your loved one where they are resting, to bringing them to the crematorium, as well as either hand-delivering their ashes to you, or their scattering at the crematorium's garden of remembrance -- whatever you think is best. This type of ceremony tends to suit those who wouldn't want anyone to make a fuss of them, or those who would like to replace the typical funeral formalities with other things more closely related to their own personalities. It lets you say goodbye in a brief, but meaningful and respectful way that is focussed on who your loved one was in life.
We wholeheartedly acknowledge the high costs associated with funerals, and we want to reassure you immediately. A Direct Cremation by Aura is a practical alternative that avoids the lavish elements of traditional funerals, offering a more affordable solution. In fact, our services could cost you less than half of what is paid on average in the UK for a funeral, with prices for one in Worcester beginning at £1,095. For a detailed and accurate price breakdown, reaching out to us is the best step. We're eager to assist and would be delighted to explore how we can serve you, and help to meet your needs.
We would be more than happy to hear how you would like to commemorate your loved one, and if there is any way we can bring it about, we will. This kind of ceremony in Worcester might be a bit more stripped-back, but there are lots of ways that you can personalise it. If you would prefer, you could even attend the ceremony, or arrange a viewing of your loved one at the chapel of rest. There are also those who like to have music special to their loved one playing whilst they enter the crematorium. Give us a call and we can work together on something special.
Every funeral is as special and unique as the person they concern, and that means that they could take different lengths of time to arrange. Once we have spoken together about what you would like, we can give you a more specific time frame. In general, a more tailored Aura funeral could be planned in Worcester within fourteen days, but other types of funeral will take longer. If you ever feel like you need to check in, you can always call us, and we will always do our best to keep you in the loop from our side.
Please know that we are here to take the burden of funeral logistics off your mind, whether you are in Worcester or elsewhere. We know it's a difficult time, which is why our team, the Angels, is on hand to take care of organising the funeral for you, if you feel that that is what you need. We want to remind you that we're here for you, just a phone call away, whenever you need to talk.
