For families who prefer a non-religious service, our civil funeral services provide a meaningful way to honour their loved one’s life. We help create a personalised ceremony that reflects the deceased's beliefs, values, and personality.

Direct Funeral

We offer a simple, cost-effective option for families who prefer a straightforward approach. Direct cremation or burial services include the essential elements without the added components of a formal funeral service. This option is ideal for those who wish to hold a private memorial or scattering ceremony at a later date, allowing for flexibility and personalisation.

Planning ahead
