A direct cremation is a simple, no-service cremation with no attendees, allowing families to remember their loved one in their own way. In Kendal, Aura ensures a smooth process by collecting the deceased, arranging a private cremation at a trusted local crematorium, and returning the ashes to the family within 21 days for a nominal fee.
Yes, while our standard direct cremation is unattended, we also offer attended direct cremation options at local crematoria in Kendal and surrounding areas. Our attended cremations provide a private, low-cost alternative to a traditional funeral, allowing families to say goodbye in a meaningful yet simple way.
Aura’s direct cremation services start at £1,195, offering a more affordable option compared to last year’s average cost for a traditional funeral, according to SunLife: £4,285.
After the cremation, the ashes can either be hand-delivered to you for a small fee or scattered in the crematorium’s Garden of Remembrance at no additional cost. Many families in Kendal choose to scatter ashes in a place of personal significance, such as the Lake District or a cherished family garden.
