Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Preston.
Aura is a family-run company with a reputation for compassionate and affordable cremation services. Paul Jameson founded us in 2019 alongside his son, Dave (our CEO) and a family friend, Ben (our COO), after he found out that he has motor neurone disease. Paul’s confrontation with his mortality, and the difficulty he went through in end-of-life planning, led him to establish Aura to help other families face those same problems. Our 4.9/5 stars on Trustpilot – making us the top-rated ‘cremation services’ provider on the platform, is testament to our family-first ethos; we proudly offer our direct cremation services from our family to yours.
Preston, a historic city in Lancashire with its rich industrial and mercantile heritage and vibrant community, is now served by Aura’s trusted direct cremation services.

Whilst we proudly serve families in Preston and across the UK, please note that Aura is not physically based in Preston. We cannot guarantee that the cremation will take place in this specific area, unless it has been requested at an additional cost. If you have questions, our friendly team is here to help.
As a family-run company, it's exactly what we'd want for members of our own family.

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.
