Yes, families in Harborne can opt for an attended or unattended direct cremation. The attended option provides an opportunity for loved ones to gather for a private moment of remembrance at a local crematorium. Our attended prices start at £2,095.
Aura’s services offer compassionate, cost-effective alternatives to traditional funerals. Our family-run values and dedicated team ensure that Harborne residents receive personalised attention and seamless service, making this choice trustworthy and supportive.
Once Aura takes your loved one into our care, they rest in one of our secure, local care centres until the day of the cremation. On the day itself, they’ll be brought to the crematorium in a private ambulance. They’ll then be brought into the crematorium chapel and placed on the catafalque, before a crematorium attendant speaks a few words out of respect. Music that was dear to them in life can play as this happens, if the family chooses. Shortly after this, the cremation itself will occur. Aura can then hand-deliver the ashes to the family, for a small fee, or scatter them on their behalf at the crematorium’s own Garden of Remembrance.
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 Harborne 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.
