Direct cremation is an unattended cremation without a formal service, offering a respectful and cost-effective alternative to traditional funerals. It is ideal for families who prefer a straightforward approach without the stress, expense, and formality of a full-service funeral. This option also allows loved ones the flexibility to arrange a personal memorial or celebration of life at a later date, in a way that best reflects the individual’s wishes. With Tyne and Wear Direct Cremations, you can trust that your loved one will receive the highest level of professional care locally, with dignity and respect at every stage.
