Direct Cremation, what does it mean…

Nowhere in the world has this ever been described as a healthy option from the point of view of those left behind. Often selected as a way of avoiding stress and deliberately marketed at the elderly. We are now seeing families forever caught up in the distress of a non funeral for a beloved person. So now not only are those left behind in mourning, they also have distress at changing the arrangements to something more suitable. We will provide direct cremation. But you will be asked to sign a disclaimer. This states that we advise against it on grounds that it could adversely affect the mental health of those left behind. Mental health issues are in the forefront of everyones mind these days.

Included in our direct cremation

We will collect the deceased from the place of death and bring them to our premises. This will be in normal working hours. Working hours are Monday to Friday and 9.00am till 5.00pm. We do have a 24 hour service and it will be available should you need to use it. There is an additional £300.00 fee to pay. This we will do within around a 10 mile radius of the office you select. Don’t worry about getting out maps to check, we will not charge any additional fee so long as the distance is reasonable.

We will then take the deceased in their coffin, to the appropriate crematorium for cremation. This will be at an unspecified day and time. There will be no service at that facility.
