Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Clacton-on-sea.
When Paul Jameson was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2017, he envisioned a simpler, more compassionate way to say goodbye—free from the high costs and formalities of a traditional funeral. That idea became Aura. Today, we provide direct cremation services that reflect Paul’s original vision: dignified, affordable, and centred around what truly matters. Every family we help is supported by our experienced Aura Angels, who are there to guide you through each step with care. It’s this approach that’s earned us a 4.9/5 stars on Trustpilot.
Aura is now one of the most trusted names in the UK for direct cremations, and we were proud to be named SME Compliance Team of the Year in 2024. We continue to carry out Paul’s vision by delivering empathetic, no fuss cremation services to families in Clacton-on-Sea and the surrounding areas—without compromise, and without hidden fees.
Clacton-on-Sea, the largest town on the Essex Sunshine Coast, is famous for its pier, beaches, and seaside charm.

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.
