Direct Cremation Services at Academy Funerals
At Academy Funerals, we understand that every family’s needs are unique, particularly during a time of loss. Our direct cremation service offers a dignified and simple farewell without the formalities of a traditional funeral service. This option is tailored for families seeking a straightforward and private way to say goodbye.
What is a Direct Cremation? A direct cremation, sometimes referred to as an unattended cremation, involves the cremation of a loved one without a formal funeral service. It’s a respectful, low-key alternative that focuses on care and dignity, allowing families to commemorate the deceased in their own way, at their own time.
Our Comprehensive Care We manage every aspect of the direct cremation process with sensitivity and respect. Our services include:
- Legal Paperwork: Handling all necessary legal documentation and arrangements.
- Transportation: Secure transport of your loved one from the place of death to our facilities.
- Cremation Coordination: Coordination with doctors and crematoriums to ensure all aspects are respectfully handled.
- Death Certificates and JP Copies: Arrangement and delivery of official death certificates and Justice of the Peace certified copies.
- Return of Ashes: Safe and dignified return of the ashes in your chosen urn or temporary container, allowing you to decide how best to honour their memory.
Personalisation Options Recognising that some families may wish to add personal touches, we offer the flexibility to customise aspects of the cremation service. Whether it’s choosing a special urn or arranging a private viewing or dressing of your loved one, we are here to accommodate your needs. Every request is handled with the utmost care, ensuring that your loved one’s farewell is as personal as their life was.
