‘Direct cremation is the right choice for some families. A large funeral can be difficult when grief is very raw. Keeping the arrangements simple can reduce stress and make the process easier to manage.’
Steve Wallis, CEO, The Memoria Group

These additional services are not required for every funeral, as you may not need them.
Hand delivery of ashes: £100 – if you are unable to collect in person
