The Scottish Government’s Funeral Support Payment helps families across Scotland with some of the costs of arranging a funeral.
This support can be put towards funeral expenses for a baby, child or adult. It won’t usually cover the full cost, but can ease the financial pressure by contributing towards certain fees and services. The payment may be made directly to you, or to the funeral director handling the arrangements.
For full details and eligibility criteria, visit the MyGov.Scot website.


Included in our package are collection, care, a simple coffin, cremation, and assistance with all documentation. We will provide full details and a no obligation quote before arrangements are finalised.
No, a direct cremation is unattended, which means there is no service held at the crematorium. Many families choose to hold a separate memorial or celebration of life at a later date. Rest assured we treat those in our care with the utmost respect, with our chapel attendant bowing a respectful goodbye to every single coffin.

Prices for arranging a direct cremation start from £1,195. All costs and any optional additions are explained clearly before you proceed. Our prepaid Direct Cremation Plan for future use is fully inclusive with no extra costs to pay and is priced at £1,595.
Following a cremation, families can choose from a range of memorial options. At our crematoria, traditional memorials and living tributes such as trees and rose bushes are available, or ashes can be scattered in the Gardens of Remembrance. The gardens are carefully maintained by our grounds team across all seasons.
Ashes can be returned to the family or scattered at the crematorium, depending on your wishes. We offer ashes scattering at all of our crematoria, so even if you have chosen a direct cremation or have ashes at home, you can get in touch with our team to arrange a scattering.
