In a direct cremation, the cremation takes place without a service or attendance. There's no ceremony at the crematorium. It's the most affordable option and gives families complete freedom to organise their own commemoration when it feels right for them.

What help is available if I'm struggling with funeral costs?

Government support comes through the Funeral Expenses Payment, available if you receive certain benefits. It covers cremation fees and up to £1,000 towards other costs. Call 0800 151 2012. Separately, the Children's Funeral Fund covers all costs for children under 18.

Using a funeral director isn't mandatory. Families can make arrangements independently, handling storage, transport, registration, and crematorium coordination. If you're considering this, speak to your local council first about what's involved.
