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.
Organising a funeral without the assistance of a funeral director is not as daunting as it may seem, our telephone-based arrangement team can assist you every step of the way and are available 24/7.

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.

Our standards
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, simple funeral with the focus on how you choose to say goodbye.
By removing some of the more costly extras often associated with a funeral, we can offer simple funerals which take care of the practical side of the cremation, leaving you the freedom to customise proceedings as you wish.
Why we're cheaper
PLUS
At Bentley Crematorium and Cemetery
If you choose to have an attended or intimate funeral, we recommend you visit the crematorium a few days before your loved one's funeral. The chapel attendant will run through the day’s proceedings with you and show you the facilities available.
The Chapel can seat 100 people, and for large congregations the waiting area can accommodate an additional 100 people standing. Here, they can view the service on a large plasma screen and hear all the details through the sound system.

My wife had a direct cremation. Everything went smoothly. The surcharge for collecting from a residential property was a bit unwelcome, especially when combined with the out of hours surcharge due to Queen's Jubilee bank holidays. When phoning staff they were very helpful.

Everyone we spoke to was so thoughtful, kind, considerate, knowledgeable and compassionate. They made us feel so looked after and individual not just another client. I cannot recommend them more highly. Wonderful service and pricing. Thank you all for making a horrid time bearable.
