Our Direct Cremation Process

1. We're ready to listen

If a loved one of yours has recently died, or if they are nearing the end of their life, we'll gladly help you to make the arrangements. The first step is to give us a call.

2. Collecting your loved one

We don't need to collect your loved one immediately, so please take your time in saying your goodbyes. Once you're ready for us, we'll bring them into our care.

3. Supporting you and your family

Whilst your loved one is resting safely in our state-of-the-art mortuary facilities, we'll guide you through all the legal paperwork, ensuring the cremation can go ahead smoothly.

4. A chance to say farewell

We know that it's important for some families to say goodbye at a ceremony before the cremation. If you would like, we can help you to arrange a simple, low-cost ceremony at a local crematorium.

5. The cremation

For those without a ceremony, we'll make sure to let you know at what time the cremation will take place, so that you can have a moment of quiet reflection to yourself.

6. Your loved one's ashes

Depending on what you'd like, we can either hand-deliver the ashes to you at home within 21 days. Or we can scatter them respectfully on your behalf at the crematorium's own Garden of Remembrance.

We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and personal touches

Priority Care

If you'd like things to happen quickly, we can work closely with you to ensure the arrangements happen within your timelines.

Low Cost Service

Frequently Asked Questions

Read our full list of FAQs.

What does a Direct Cremation entail?: A Direct Cremation provides an alternative to pallbearers and processions, in the form of something more personal. We don't want you to have to settle for a traditional funeral, if that's not what your loved one would have wanted. It's a brief type of ceremony that is becoming increasingly popular in the UK, and usually works best for people who would like to add a bit of their own personality into proceedings. We can easily arrange the details in Ormskirk for you, by collecting your loved one and bringing them to the crematorium; afterwards, we would then either hand-deliver their ashes to you, or there is a garden of remembrance at the crematorium itself where they could be scattered, if that is what your loved one would have preferred.

Does a Direct Cremation in Ormskirk normally cost a lot?: We are always available over the phone to discuss your options, and to give you a specific price for your needs. We want to make this time as easy as we can for you, and that also includes our approach to cost: An Aura funeral could cost less than half of the price of the average British funeral, and we could provide this type of service to you in Ormskirk for as little as £1,195.

Is there any way that the Direct Cremation process can be customised in Ormskirk?: It might help you to know that, without the inclusion of some of the more traditional formalities, we can make plenty of room for your wishes and your loved one's character in the ceremony. There are many people who like to set the music that will accompany their loved one's entry into the crematorium, choosing a song that was dear to them. Other people like to make sure that the chaplain has something personal to say about their loved one as the ceremony begins. If there is anything at all that we can do to help you make this day as memorable as possible, we would warmly welcome your call.

Will the planning phase of a Direct Cremation in Ormskirk last for a long time?: One thing that we see every day is that every funeral is special and unique, which means that they can take different lengths of time to arrange. Once we have had the chance to talk about things over the phone, we will be able to get a plan in place and then give you a bit more of a specific timeline to work with. For now, as a rough guide, we could arrange one of our more tailored funerals in Ormskirk within a fourteen-day period, but other kinds will need more time. You are always more than welcome to give us a call if you would like an update on our progress at any time, and we will always do our best to keep you in the loop from our side.

If I become overwhelmed at some point along the way, will there be anyone to help me?: The first thing we want to reassure you of straight away is that you are not alone. Planning an unexpected funeral is something that makes many people worry for all kinds of reasons, but we are here to help. Our specially trained team of Angels is on hand to take care of the planning of everything, leaving you free to be in the moment with peace of mind.

Where will the cremation take place?: We provide a nationwide direct cremation service, working with a trusted network of crematoria and care centres across England, Scotland and Wales. While we do serve families in Ormskirk and the surrounding area, the cremation may not take place locally as part of our standard £1,195 package.

To keep our service simple and affordable, we arrange the cremation based on availability within our wider network. This helps avoid delays and allows us to offer the best possible value.

If it's important for you to choose a specific crematorium, we do offer that option for an additional cost. While we always aim to keep things as close to home as possible, your loved one may be cared for at one of our partner facilities a little further away.

No matter where the cremation takes place, your loved one will be treated with the utmost care, dignity and respect. If you'd like to discuss location options in more detail, our team is here to help.
