Direct Cremations

also called Non-Attended Cremations

What is a Non-Attended or Direct Cremation?

A campaign by a national direct cremation provider has been circulating on TV, social media, in the press and even through your door. If you’re considering this option, please research thoroughly.

Many national providers operate from a central hub, often far from where the person has passed, leading to lengthy transportation times and a significant carbon footprint. Families may face delays before loved ones are collected, and cremations are often carried out hundreds of miles away.

As your local, family-run funeral directors, we offer an alternative that prioritizes care, compassion, and a personal touch. Here’s why choosing our direct cremation service is a meaningful and supportive option:

Personal touch and compassion

Unlike large providers, we offer a tailored service, and qualified funeral directors. You’ll work with the same dedicated team, ensuring your loved one is treated with respect and dignity.

Local expertise and care

As a community-focused business, we manage all arrangements locally, ensuring your loved one is cared for close to home, here in Anstey, with the utmost attention to detail. The cremation is carried out here in Leicestershire and the cremated remains collected within 48 hours.

Transparent and fair pricing

We provide affordable, high-quality services with clear, upfront pricing. No hidden fees, just the dignity and respect your loved one deserves.

Support beyond the service

Our support extends beyond the cremation. From assistance with paperwork to grief resources, we’re here for you at every stage.

Environmentally conscious

By handling everything locally, we minimize transportation and reduce the carbon footprint, making this a more eco-friendly choice compared to larger providers.

Our charges for this type of service are £1,600.00. Additional options to view your loved one in our chapel of rest and have them dressed in their own clothing are available.

If you have questions or need guidance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help and our phones are answered locally, 24/7, by the same dedicated team who are based here in Anstey.
