Frequently Asked Questions

Read our full list of FAQs.

How do I know if a Direct Cremation would be what my loved one would have wanted?

Direct Cremation is becoming an increasingly favoured funeral option in the UK, and we tend to find that it suits those who would want a more tailored and personal experience instead of something traditional. If your loved one wouldn't have wanted the normal formal elements, like a funeral procession or pallbearers, this could be the right option for them. We are able to arrange things easily in Hull: We could bring your loved one from where they are resting to the crematorium for their ceremony. Afterwards, we can then either scatter their ashes for you in the crematorium's solace garden, or personally deliver them to you at home -- whatever you think would be right. This funeral gives you the option to remember your loved one with all of the dignity of tradition, but none of the fuss.

Can you tell me the cost of a Direct Cremation ceremony in Hull?

Each funeral is unique and important in its own way, which can make an impact on the cost you might have to pay. We would be very glad to give you a direct quote just as soon as we have had a chance to learn what kind of funeral you would like to organise. Until then, we hope it makes this time just a little bit easier to know that other kinds of funeral are usually a lot more expensive than this kind, and that the cost of an Aura funeral could be less than half of that of the average British funeral. We could arrange everything for you in Hull from £1,195, depending on what you think would be best for your loved one.

Will my loved one's preferences guide the ceremony?

We would be honoured to help your loved one's spirit shine throughout their ceremony, and we have many ways we can achieve that. If you know you'd like to tailor things to them, but aren't sure how you would go about doing this, we can make a couple of recommendations: Some people like to make sure that their loved one has a coffin that indicates who they were in life and what they liked, with everything from the material to the colour and design, as well as the images and art work, capable of being customised. Others feel it is important to attend the ceremony in person with their family and friends, which we can also arrange. If there are any thoughts you have on how to make things more special, we would be glad to hear them, and to help make them a reality.

How much time will you need to organise my loved one's funeral in Hull?

At Aura, we offer many different kinds of funeral, so it is a little bit difficult to provide you with a firm time frame initially. We can guarantee that we will always work as hard as we can for you, without cutting corners on the level of service that we provide. To give you a guideline to work with now, we could arrange one of our more customised funerals for you in Hull within a fortnight, but others will need more time to arrange. Once we have been able to talk to you over the phone, we will know more about you need, and then we can give you more specific information. We will always keep you updated of everything we are doing, and you are more than welcome to request a progress report from your side, whenever you need.

Is there anyone who I can turn to if things get too much for me whilst I am planning my loved one's goodbye?

We want to make sure that you have the peace of mind you need in order to focus on more important matters at a time like this. That is why we have special team on hand, who we like to call the Angels, ready and waiting to take your call. Suddenly needing to organise an unexpected funeral can provoke feelings of anxiety for many people, especially if it adds unexpected financial burden or if you've never had to organise one before. We at Aura understand that, and it is our goal to listen to you, and to take the pressure of planning of your shoulders, whether you are in Hull or anywhere else in Britain.

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 Hull 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.
