Direct cremation is a straightforward cremation focusing on the cremation process, without a traditional funeral service. In Cockermouth, Aura ensures a seamless process, arranging the collection of your loved one, a dignified cremation at a trusted facility, and the return of their ashes to your family within 21 days. Families can then, as they see fit, organise a separate celebration of life later.
Our standard direct cremation is unattended, which is the norm. But we also offer attended direct cremation options at local crematoria in Cockermouth and nearby areas. This allows families to say goodbye in a simple yet meaningful way.
Aura’s direct cremation services start at £1,195. We hope that you will be pleased by the fact that this makes our starting price less than half of the SunLife average for last year’s traditional funeral price of £4,285. Our pricing is clear and transparent, with no hidden fees.
After the cremation, ashes can either be hand-delivered to your family for a small fee or scattered in the crematorium’s Garden of Remembrance at no additional cost. Many families in Cockermouth choose to scatter ashes in a meaningful place, such as along the River Derwent or in a favourite outdoor spot. It’s more and more common these days for families to organise an ash scattering ceremony once the ashes have been returned to them.
Aura offers a caring and cost-effective alternative to traditional funerals. Our experienced team ensures a seamless and respectful process, and we are one of the UK’s highest-rated direct cremation providers. Whether you’re in Cockermouth, Brigham, or Papcastle, we’re here to help you through this important moment with compassion and respect.
