Direct Cremation

People choose an unattended cremation as an alternative to a more traditional funeral where there is a more formal service at the committal. 

For some, this is because they don’t want any fuss, and for others, it is simply a personal choice.

Our Direct Cremation is our lowest cost funeral yet still affords the highest level of dignity and care for those that have passed away. It includes an unattended cremation in a Simple coffin.
