We’ll keep the deceased dressed in the same clothes they were wearing when they entered our care unless otherwise requested. If you’ve got a specific outfit you’d like them to wear, just let us know and provide it prior to the cremation.

Many people struggle to afford a funeral because of the rising funeral costs. If you’re arranging the funeral of a loved one and you think you can’t afford it, check if you’re eligible for Government assistance via a Funeral Expenses Payment in England & Wales or check your eligibility and apply for a Funeral Support Payment in Scotland.

Excellent service , exactly what I want
Tracy Hughes, on Google 18 Feb 2025
Distinct Cremations were very kind, compassionate and empathetic when I called recently to tell them my Aunt had passed away. My Aunt had already arranged and paid for an unattended Cremation with Distinct Cremations. Maxine was very helpful and caring whilst going through the order of everything and all the legal requirements needed. I was very reassured that my Aunt was well cared for and was treated with no less dignity and respect than had she chosen an attended funeral. Arrangements were made to bring my Aunts ashes back to me a week after her cremation and they were delivered very efficiently and with care by Chelsea who was lovely. I highly recommend Distinct Cremations, their service is outstanding. ReplyLike

The agent was clear about the benefits of the prepaid funeral plan, and offered us a reduction based on two of us taking out a plan.

It was so easy to set up no issues at all and paying over 60 months great as you don’t miss the money. Also received courtesy call to see if paper work had arrived to my sister which is a nice touch these days.

It was very simple to do and the staff were very pleasant and professional. It’s nice to know that everything is sorted and the children won’t have to organise anything at their saddest time
