Direct Cremations

What is Direct Cremation?

Direct cremation is a modern, increasingly chosen alternative to a traditional funeral.

It offers a respectful, unattended cremation without a formal service at the crematorium — giving families space to remember their loved one in a more personal, meaningful way, at a time and place that suits them.

At Coventry Direct Cremations, we provide a dignified, all-inclusive service for just £1,750, handled entirely by our experienced, local team. Your loved one stays in our care throughout — never transferred elsewhere, never handled by third parties.

Saying Goodbye

Visiting a Memorial or Holding a Personal Tribute

After a direct cremation, many families choose to honour their loved one’s memory in a more personal and meaningful way. Whether it’s scattering ashes in a favourite place, creating a memorial garden, lighting candles at home, or gathering for a private tribute with music and photos, there are many heartfelt ways to say goodbye. You might also consider placing a memorial plaque or tree in a local park, or simply spending quiet time in a place that held special meaning. The choice is yours — gentle, private, and truly personal.
