Professional service by everyone

I am so pleased I chose Aura and cannot recommend them highly enough. Everyone is so professional, friendly and understanding which can make a difficult
decision so much easier. I know they are available if I have any questions and this in itself is very reassuring. This makes me sure I have made the right choice.

Excellent and stress free

I requested a brochure, which arrived promptly. I then arranged for a callback.
Roddy was extremely friendly and helpful, he gave me all the information I needed and answered all the questions I had.
Arranging my funeral plan was simple and stress free. I set up a payment plan, and the paperwork arrived in good time.
I would happily recommend anyone to consider Aura.

Putting this plan in place was easy

Jimmy was so helpful, professional but shared my sense of humour which certainly made the process very easy.
I guess my only question would be is why the advertisements for Aura say funerals from £1195. I wasn't told anything about this. Having shared this matter here on my review, am still happy with the service I received from Jimmy.

Regarding your question about the price, our at-need services start at £1,195, which may be what you had seen. I hope this helps clear things up, but if you'd like to chat anything through, please give us a call. We are always happy to help. All the best, Jimmy
