People often tell me how relieved they feel to have finally set up their funeral
plan and they didn’t expect it to be such an easy process.
It’s good to feel the sense of relief from a family members voice when they know I am there to guide them and ensure the funeral runs smoothly.
Direct cremation is the fastest-growing choice for funerals in the UK. In fact, one in five funerals in 2024 was a direct cremation, compared with just over half that number a few years ago.* Families are choosing this option because it is simple, more affordable, and gives them the freedom to say goodbye in their own way.
It can feel right if you don’t want the formality of a traditional funeral, if your loved ones live far away, or if you prefer to avoid unnecessary fuss. Without the pressure of arranging a service at the crematorium, families have the chance to hold a personal memorial or celebration of life at a time and place that feels meaningful.
Choosing a direct cremation with Memoria Direct Cremation also brings peace of mind. With clear, honest pricing and all the essentials included, you know exactly what to expect. Everything is handled with dignity and care, allowing you to focus on remembering the person who mattered most.
