If you are struggling to afford the costs of a funeral, you could be eligible for a Funeral Expenses Payment from the government to help you pay.
If you are not eligible for this financial help but would like low cost funeral services in Nottingham, our simple cremation funerals prioritise affordability without compromising on care. Our direct cremation funerals without attendees are available from just £1,299. Alternatively, if you and your family would like the tradition of saying a final goodbye, our attended cremation services costs from £1,899.
The most affordable funeral option available is a direct cremation funeral. This is a cremation that takes place without any mourners present. Our respectful direct cremation funeral services in Nottingham start from just £1,299. Prior to the cremation, the coffin is rested in the chapel with a chapel attendant present and a chosen piece of music can be played. The cremation then takes place and the ashes are personally returned to the preferred family member or friend.
If you are planning ahead for your own funeral, our Direct Cremation Plan for £1,899 is also available to those in the Nottingham area. You can pay for this funeral plan upfront or flexibly in instalments if you would like to spread the cost.

For example, we transport the deceased in our own private ambulances so you don't have to hire costly hearses or limousines.
