The increasingly popular “Direct Cremation” involves an unattended cremation. Sounds simple? If you dig a little deeper, there may be elements to this type of package that you hadn’t considered.

Unlike many other direct cremation plans, our plan aims to create a more comprehensive and caring experience for your family when you die, by offering the following benefits:

• The Funeral Director will select the crematorium. But we guarantee that it will be in your local area, within an agreed timeframe. This way you are not kept in storage for long periods, nor being transported long distances around the country. It also ensures that local economies are supported.
• Care, preparation, and family viewings in the Chapel of Rest are included with our plan. This can be an important consideration.
• We include 24-hour collection. This is within a local area designated by your Funeral Director. No extra charges will be incurred for this at time of need.
• Your Funeral Director will inform your family on the date/time of the cremation. This way they can think of you or have a toast to you in that moment.

We’ve taken the most popular elements of a funeral and combined them into our Traditional Plan. This then allows you to add extra items to create the funeral plan that you want.

Our plan includes a full cremation with celebrant service at a crematorium of your choice. It includes a traditional style oak veneer coffin and transportation via Hearse. Using this as a basis, you can add limousines, change your coffin or include contributions towards things you’d like.

Our plan offers the following benefits:

• Crematorium, celebrant, doctors and professional fees are fully guaranteed within the plan.
• Your plan can be converted to a burial.
• You can create a plan as bespoke as you like, as you aren’t limited to a fixed selection of products and services.
