With an Aura unattended cremation, we collect the person who has died from where they’ve passed away and bring them into our care at state-of-the-art mortuary facilities.
From there, we bring them to the crematorium privately, words of respect will be spoken by the attendant and the cremation will take place shortly after.
If you’d like a simple service whilst giving your loved ones the opportunity to say goodbye at the crematorium, Aura also offers the option of an attended direct cremation service.
We offer a smaller, more informal service for fewer attendees, or a larger service for as many people as can be held by the crematorium chapel.
