What is a Simplicity cremation?

A Simplicity Cremation is a direct cremation, meaning there is no funeral service for mourners to attend. 

It offers a simple, affordable alternative to a traditional funeral.

How are the arrangements made? ​

Call Simplicity and their team will take care of the arrangements. They will bring the person into their care using a private ambulance and take them to their nearest care centre.  Once the necessary paperwork has been completed, they will arrange a respectful direct cremation at one of their crematoria. 

What happens next?

The ashes can be collected from the crematorium, scattered in their beautiful Gardens of Remembrance, or delivered to any address in mainland Great Britain. 

Why should I consider a funeral plan?​

A funeral plan is a practical way to prepare for the future and allows you to pay for a direct cremation ahead of time.  It provides peace of mind that there’s a plan in place and fewer decisions for loved ones.
