Direct Cremation Prices
A simple service that suits the needs of some families looking for the focus of the celebration of a life not to be centred around the place or point of cremation.
Direct Cremation is not a simple service, it is a service that has no contact on the day with the family, allowing their focus to be elsewhere, with a memorial or celebration service.
Some crematoria offer this option with no use of a chapel and no staffing to attend to mourners as funerals attended by friends or family do not suit this type of service.
Prices start from £1400.00 all inclusive
Please don’t hesitate to give us a call should you require more information.
