If you're interested in preparing for the future, one of our funeral plans may be ideal for you. A prepaid funeral plan lets you pay for a funeral in advance for yourself, a family member or a friend.
One of the benefits of getting a funeral plan is to protect yourself from rising funeral prices. Since 2004, in the midlands including the Worcester area, funeral costs have doubled.* Pre-paying for a funeral plan also takes the organisational stress away from your family when the time comes.
As part of the Westerleigh group, we have 41 crematoriums across the UK where our prepayment funeral plans are fulfilled. So even if the person covered by the funeral plan moves out of the Worcester area in future, their funeral will still go ahead exactly as planned, as long as they're still based somewhere in mainland UK.
* Increase is based on the average cost of a funeral in the East & West Midlands in 2004 (£2,061, SunLife Cost of Dying Report 2015) and in 2023 (£4,150, SunLife Cost of Dying Report 2024, sunlife.co.uk/funeral-costs)
We’re here for you whether you are looking for our direct cremation services today or planning for tomorrow.

Relax knowing that the arrangements are agreed and paid for. There are no medical questions and acceptance is guaranteed. You can also pay in monthly instalments.
** Price advertised is for a 50 year old paying over a 10 year period. Total cost is £2,374.80 and includes administration fees.

The Vale Crematorium Evesham Road, Fladbury, Pershore, WR10 2QR
If you are interested in a personal, intimate, attended cremation to celebrate the life of a loved one, this can take place at our beautiful crematorium just outside Worcester. Up to 8 people can attend a 10 minute service from just £1,699 or 20 people can attend a 20 minute service from just £1,899.
Located in the heart of the Worcestershire countryside, The Vale Crematorium offers a new facility that matches the peacefulness and seclusion of the surrounding environment, offering a natural stone finish, oak furnishings, picture windows, and clear views of the picturesque backdrop. The crematorium also offers a state-of-the-art media system with a near unlimited music library allowing you to curate a truly personal service.
Our Worcester funeral services are also available to all those in the surrounding areas and across mainland UK. Wherever you are, you can feel reassured that your loved ones will be professionally and compassionately looked after.
At Distinct Cremations, our services allow you to have a funeral in two parts. Firstly, there is the cremation itself, which we take care of. We collect the deceased, carry out the cremation, and hand-deliver the ashes back making things as fuss and stress-free as possible for families. Secondly, there is the memorial service or celebration which the family organises. Loved ones can gather at a time and place of their choice to commemorate the deceased.
With our direct cremation, we allow families to say goodbye when they want, where they want and how they want. These are just some of the many places in Worcester where you could consider having your memorial service.
The ornate Worcester Guildhall with its choice of halls and other venues with extensive local history are dignified and fitting locations to celebrate the lives of established Worcester residents.
Sports clubs are a popular celebration of life venue, especially for sports fans. Local sporting grounds like Worcester Rugby Football Club can have very emotional ties and happy memories.
Choosing a trusted venue ensures a personal send off. Your local choice may be a town centre restaurant or a popular country pub like the Pear Tree Inn.
We offer the highest level of support, but don't just take our word for it. Below are recent reviews from customers who bought a funeral with us.
Distinct Cremations leave out the funeral fuss and needless extras but leave in great service and a wonderfully caring attitude.
