Personal cremation
A personal cremation is also known as a direct cremation and is for those who do not wish to have a traditional attended funeral service.
What is a personalised cremation?
A personal cremation is for people who do not wish to have a traditional funeral service, or to have a large gathering of people. It offers a low-cost funeral that allows you to bid a respectful farewell in a simple and fuss-free way. With a 10-minute service for up to 8 attendees, it gives time for silent reflection, or a family read poem, with a single piece of music to lead into the chapel and to guide you on exit. Your loved one will be conveyed to the crematorium by hearse and in the chapel awaiting your arrival.
