If you have any questions, would like a brochure or simply would like a chat through our services, our award-winning team is here to help.
Unlike other providers, we won’t hassle you with constant calls. We’ll simply ensure you have the information you need and leave you to come to a decision in your own time. When you’re ready for us, our team will be ready to help.
The whole purpose of a prepaid funeral plan is to do exactly that: you can pay for things in advance, at today's prices, and make sure that your relatives are not left behind guessing at what kind of ceremony you would have wanted. The money you pay goes into an independently managed trust, safely ready to be used when the time comes, and you can pay it all in one go, or in instalments, as you prefer. One of the main benefits of doing things this way is that you can make sure your family has peace of mind when the moment arrives to arrange your funeral: they will know that you have already specified everything according to your wishes and that they won't have any financial surprises. Meanwhile, you can rest assured that you have set your affairs in order, and you can simply focus on enjoying life.
Thinking about getting a plan together for the end of our lives is understandably difficult for lots of reasons, with many of us finding it hard to reflect on what that moment means. The financial strain of a funeral is another reason why it can be difficult. If we can alleviate some of that stress, we will: we are happy to inform you that our funeral services start at just £1,695; a rate that's significantly lower than the national average of £4,141, which is a figure found in the SunLife 2024 Cost of Dying Report. The cost of a funeral can differ based on individual preferences, but we're ready to discuss your specific needs in Nottingham or to provide a quote at your convenience. We eagerly await the opportunity to speak with you and to start putting a plan together that you can be satisfied with.
At Aura, we understand that plans can change quickly in life, which is why we want to make our funeral plans as flexible as possible for you. If you want to cancel at any point after you've paid, for any reason, you can do so immediately without needing to pay a penalty. We can also seamlessly make any adjustments to your service in Nottingham, with additional payment required only if you want to make any upgrades to your plan. We're available to talk through any of these points with you, whenever you like.
With an emphasis on simplicity and without the need for formalities like hearses or pallbearers, our direct-cremation funeral plans in Nottingham are suited for people who want a minimalistic send-off. If you feel you'd like something more understated and quiet compared to tradition, then this could be the answer to your questions. The process is designed to be easy: You would appoint someone to handle your affairs after your passing, and we immediately provide them with a detailed guide on the following process. Following notification of your death, we activate your arranged and prepaid plan, organising the ceremony accordingly. If you don't want to have any guests at your funeral, we will simply help your chosen person with the legal formalities, but if guests will attend, we also coordinate the funeral details with them.
Paul Jameson, diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2017, established Aura as a family-led business with the goal of helping more people organise their legacy planning. As a result of that, we have a very people-focused approach to our work, and Paul still runs the business with Dave, his son, and a family friend named Ben. In Nottingham, our friendly and empathetic support team would be very glad to assist you in setting up a funeral that truly reflects you. From our family to yours, we can promise that we will always listen to what you have to say and deliver a service that you can trust.
