Dignified, personal, respectful direct cremation in London - £1,395
What is a direct cremation?
A direct cremation is an unattended funeral with no mourners present at the crematorium. This separates the need to have a cremation from the funeral or celebration of life, giving you more time to plan a gathering of loved ones to say goodbye
While large national direct cremation companies advertise widely, our service is rooted locally in North West London, where your loved one will remain in our care.
Although we focus on arranging unattended direct cremations, our local presence means we can also offer an enhanced option in London, giving families the chance to spend time in the chapel of rest and say a final farewell before the cremation.
There are many reasons families choose direct cremation. For some, it allows the cremation to take place straight away, with the flexibility to hold a memorial or funeral service at a later date. This separation gives more time to plan a fitting farewell.
We provide straightforward and affordable direct cremations in London but can also arrange the service in other parts of the country if required.
As experienced funeral directors in North West London, we can also support you in arranging a memorial service in the future. Our expertise goes beyond offering unattended funerals and low-cost direct cremations.
