Frequently Asked Questions

Read our full list of FAQs.

What are direct cremations and how do they work in Lambeth?

Direct cremations offer a simple, no-fuss alternative to traditional funerals. Aura’s direct cremation service in Lambeth involves the collection of the person who has passed and a private cremation. There is no formal service unless you wish to add one, allowing you to say goodbye in a way that feels right for you. Following the cremation, ashes can either be returned to you or scattered in the crematorium’s Garden of Remembrance.

How affordable will a direct cremation be in Lambeth?

Aura offers affordable funeral options, with our unattended direct cremation starting at £1,195, well below the national average funeral cost which SunLife places at £4,285. For those who would like a small, intimate service, we also offer an attended option starting from £2,095, giving you the chance to gather family and friends to say a final goodbye.

Can my family attend a direct cremation in Lambeth?

Yes, family members can be present at the crematorium for a private service if they wish. Our attended direct cremation services are a more stripped-back version of a traditional funeral with no pallbearers and no hearse. However, it is still very personal and meaningful. Our Angel team are happy to help you find a celebrant to lead the service and customise the ceremony with your choice of music.

How long does a direct cremation take in Lambeth?

It is difficult to put an exact time frame on how long it takes to arrange a funeral as many aspects need careful coordination. However, you can expect a direct cremation to typically take a few days to a few weeks to arrange. Once you contact Aura, we’ll handle everything with care and efficiency, keeping you informed every step of the way. You can trust that we will ensure the process is smooth and respectful from beginning to end.

Why should we choose Aura for direct cremations in Lambeth?

From our family to yours, Aura is here to provide top-rated care to everyone who turns to us. Our founder, Paul Jameson, founded Aura with his own end-of-life plans in mind, so we understand what it takes to take care of people during a difficult time. Paul continues to guide our team today alongside his son Dave and family friend Ben. Our family-run values mean that when you choose Aura, you choose a partner who will treat you with the care and respect you deserve.

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 Lambeth 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.
