For those planning ahead, our person-centred support and family-run values can provide comfort to you and your loved ones.
A prepaid direct cremation plan allows you to plan and pay for your funeral in advance, easing the emotional and financial burden on your family during their time of grief.
At Aura, we like to think about our plans as a thoughtful gift for those we leave behind. You can plan this meaningful gesture with confidence knowing that your arrangements are safe.
Aura is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and our plans are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). Your money is held in a secure trust that is managed independently from Aura, so you have peace of mind that your money is safe.
When you’ve found the right Aura direct cremation funeral plan for you, you can make your purchase online or call our helpful team.
They’ll help organise arrangements and send the paperwork to you when it’s completed.
You will need to select a trusted relative or friend as your nominated representative, who will be our point of contact when you pass away. They will also receive a helpful guide on how to reach out to us when they need to.
After purchasing your plan, your funds will be placed in a secure, independently-managed trust. This ensures your funds are safe and ready for when they are needed. You can then relax knowing everything is taken care of.
Your representative will notify us of your death, and we’ll do the rest. Our compassionate Aura Angels team will guide them through each step, helping with paperwork, funeral arrangements, grief support, and ensuring your final wishes are met with respect and care.
Choosing a direct cremation plan brings peace of mind for those you love most.
You can make your own choices regarding the arrangements of your funeral. You can then share your wishes with your loved ones by organising everything ahead of time. This relieves your family from the stress of making complex decisions during their grief.
Our plans also protect against potential future inflation and rising costs, ensuring your loved ones aren’t burdened with unexpected expenses during a difficult time.
There are no hidden costs with our direct cremation funeral plans; all necessary costs relating to your funeral are included in the price of your plan.
Aura is a family-run business. We offer personalised care from our family to yours, providing people-centred care that can’t be matched by larger providers.
We’re confident that you’ll gain total peace of mind from our direct cremation plans and customer service. If not, we’ll give you a full refund.
