Funerals from £995 and Funeral Plans from £1,495

Our low cost cremations provide you with all the practical and essential elements of a cremation, without having to pay for traditional ceremonial elements you might not want.

When someone passes away, most families will seek help from a local Funeral Director to arrange a funeral for their loved one. Traditional Funeral Directors put in a lot of time including face-to-face meetings to provide the funeral you ask for, and this is often reflected in the price. Their fees typically make up the majority of the cost of a basic funeral; the SunLife Cost Of Dying Report 2020 reported the average Funeral Director’s fees as £2,687.

Unlike arranging a traditional funeral, organising a Simplicity Cremation includes no Funeral Director involvement, allowing us to offer substantial savings in the cost of a funeral. Our funerals start at £995 and take care of all of the practicalities of a simple cremation including cremation fees, doctor’s fees, collection from the place of rest a few days prior to the cremation, a simple coffin and transportation on the day of the cremation.

Instead of visiting a Funeral Home, all the funeral arrangements can be made over the telephone with help from our expert team of funeral arrangers, who are available 24/7.

Whilst our prices are considerably less than you would expect to pay for a traditional funeral, rest assured you and your loved one will receive the highest level of care and service. At Simplicity Cremations, everyone gets the dignified funeral they deserve.

Our low cost cremation services allow you the freedom and flexibility to say goodbye to your loved one in a way that suits you and your family.

If for you that means you’d prefer not to attend the crematorium, our direct cremation may be the right option for you. This cremation only funeral takes is supervised by a qualified chapel attendant, without any mourners present and without a service beforehand. You could instead choose to reminisce in your own way such as holding a beautiful memorial service in honour of your loved one with the ashes at a later date.

Our Intimate Funeral provides a short time in the crematorium for a small group of family and friends (up to 12 people). This offers enough time for you to say a few words and say a personal goodbye to your loved one without the need to organise a funeral service.

If you would like the opportunity to organise a personalised funeral service, our Attended Funeral provides a full length service in the chapel for an unlimited number of people to attend, led by the family. Some families opt for engaging with the services of a minister or officiant, and organise a service in the way you would with a traditional funeral, whereas others prefer to do something a little less formal, such as spend the time playing a collection of their loved ones favourite songs and sharing happy memories.

If you’d like to plan ahead for your own cremation in the future, our prepaid funeral plans include the same attendance and service options, allowing you to protect your loved ones from rising funeral costs, as well as ensuring your funeral is carried out according to your wishes.

A Simplicity Cremation may be low cost, but this is not at the expense of our standards of service.

Without the cost of a hearse or limousines and the need to visit a Funeral Director, our prices are up to 76%* less than the cost of the average basic funeral. Instead of providing ceremonial elements that many do not see the value in, we give you greater choice in how you remember your loved one, with the focus on whether or not you’d like to attend the crematorium on the day of the cremation.

Our low cost funerals are delivered to the highest standards. From the moment your loved one is collected to the day of cremation, every step of the process is carried out with dedication, expertise and compassion.

At Simplicity, we believe funerals should be less of an undertaking. We provide simple, low cost funerals that take care of all of the practicalities without the needless expense or unwanted formalities.

Most people would assume arranging a funeral without a Funeral Director would be a difficult process. With Simplicity, this is simply not the case. All the funeral arrangements can be made over the phone by our team of funeral arrangers, saving both a considerable amount of time and money in the process.

We understand that many people will have never had the responsibility of arranging a funeral before, and it can often prove to be a stressful and overwhelming time. Rest assured; you can count on our dedicated team to be there to assist you every step of the way.

From the moment your loved one is collected and brought into our care to when the ashes are returned to you or scattered in our gardens of remembrance, every step of the process is carried out with dedication, expertise and the highest degree of compassion.

When someone close to you dies, it can be a confusing and disorientating time. At Simplicity, we are dedicated to helping people through what can be the most difficult times of their life. To help you, our bereavement and advice counselling service is available 24 hours a day should you need us.

Just because a Simplicity Cremation is a low cost funeral option, it does not mean substandard care.

As part of one of the UK’s largest funeral groups, we’re the only truly national direct cremation and low cost funeral provider that has its own staff, specialised vehicles, crematoriums and mortuaries.

Our nationwide network of facilities and crematoria ensure a consistently high quality of care, teamed with decades of expertise in funeral services.

As recognition of our high standards of service, we were even awarded Best Direct Cremation Provider in the 2018 Good Funeral Awards.

A traditional funeral can be an expensive affair.

You’ll often need a Funeral Director and a whole team of staff to co-ordinate the required services, vehicles and personnel, manage tributes and announcements and ensure everything runs smoothly on the day. And then there are also additional costs for extras such as flowers, service cards, maybe a headstone and often a wake. It usually takes quite a few lengthy face-to-face meetings to arrange, not to mention several thousands of pounds.

By making low cost funeral arrangements with Simplicity Cremations, you'll have the freedom and flexibility to customise proceedings as you wish, so you can hold a truly personalised funeral or memorial for your loved one that suits you and your budget, whilst only incorporating the traditions that are important to you.

Without a team of pallbearers, a procession with limousines and a hearse, and some of the other more traditional elements of a funeral, we can offer a more cost-effective, simpler affair with the focus on the service itself.
