A trusted service from our family to yours

”After I was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, I started thinking about my funeral. I didn't want my family to spend thousands of pounds on a high-end coffin or expensive limousines, but I also wanted high quality service. The most important thing for me was that I wanted to know that my family would be in trusted hands when the time came. That's why me, my son and an expert team created Aura - to provide exceptional service at a low cost. No less than what I'd want for my own family“

Frequently Asked Questions

Read our full list of FAQs.

I'm curious about a prepaid funeral plan. What is it?

A prepaid funeral plan is like setting up a safety net for the future, both for you and your loved ones. It's a thoughtful step in end-of-life planning, allowing you to lay out exactly how you'd like to be remembered and take care of the expenses too. You'll be buying your plan at the current cost, helping relieve your family of any worries regarding potential rising funeral prices. It’s a way to ensure your goodbye is handled your way, relieving your family of the stress of guessing your wishes or shouldering unexpected costs. It's more than just a practical approach to your funeral, it's an act of consideration for others, ensuring your send-off is as smooth as possible.

If I wanted a prepaid funeral plan here in Harlow, what kind of budget would I need?

If navigating through the costs of a funeral plan has you considering price options, we're here to help. The 2024 SunLife Cost of Dying Report includes figures on funeral fees in the UK, reporting an average price tag of around £4,141. That's a significant amount, but here's some good news: Aura offers direct cremation plans, starting at just £1,695. We present an affordable alternative that provides a quality service with genuine care and compassion. Whether you're in Harlow or further afield, Aura can help you arrange a respectful farewell that's both meaningful and manageable. We know every funeral is different and requires different costs and needs, get in touch if you want to learn more from our experienced team or request a quote through our website.

Is there any flexibility with prepaid funeral plans in Harlow after they're paid for?

Life is full of changes, and we at Aura fully understand that. That's exactly why we've made sure you can alter your funeral plan at any point after your purchase, without any fuss. If you want to cancel your plan or change the details, our team will help you through every step. There is no extra charge to make any updates, but if you add an extra service like an attended memorial at a crematorium in Harlow, this may cost more than your original plan. You're always welcome to give us a call to find out more and ask any questions you might have.

How does a prepaid direct cremation plan ensure my wishes are carried out later?

When you purchase a prepaid plan with Aura, you can pick a trusted loved one to be your representative. We'll send them everything they need to know now and be there for them when the time comes. They won't be alone, our compassionate team is on hand to guide them through every step, from the legal paperwork to the final details of the funeral, ensuring everything is just as you wanted. It’s really important to us at Aura that your life is celebrated in a way that feels right to you. So, if traditional funeral ceremonies don't align with the kind of send-off you have in mind, our direct cremation options could be what you're looking for.

Is Aura a good choice for a funeral plan in Harlow?

Respectful funeral services brought to you with care and compassion are the reason Aura was created. Faced with the reality of planning his own funeral, our founder, Paul Jameson, alongside his son, Dave and a close family friend, Ben, created Aura with the goal of providing dignified services to others. When you pick Aura for your funeral plan, you trust a company that values people. Our dedication to delivering exceptional service is seen in our five-star rating from independent authorities like Fairer Finance, as well as the high praise we've received from customers, who have generously rated us 4.9 on Trustpilot. Whether you're looking for a funeral plan in Harlow or anywhere else in the UK, Aura is here to help.
