What is a Direct or Simple Cremation?

An Unattended Funeral also referred to as a direct or unattended cremation, is ideal for those who would prefer a more simple funeral. An Unattended Funeral is different to a traditional funeral as there is no funeral service beforehand and no mourners present at the cremation. This allows you to provide the send-off that suits your families budget and in a manner they choose to celebrate your life.
An Unattended Funeral is arranged with a simple call to our confidential service who are available 24/7 to ensure arranging your loved one's funeral is a straightforward process.
