How direct cremation works at Rainsbrook Crematorium
A direct cremation is the simplest form of cremation. The deceased is cremated without a service at the crematorium and without mourners present. The ashes are returned to the family afterwards (or scattered at the crematorium if preferred). Direct cremation at Rainsbrook Crematorium follows the same process that applies at any UK crematorium:
- Your chosen direct cremation provider collects the deceased from the hospital, care home, or (for an extra fee) from a private residence
- The provider handles all the medical paperwork and cremation authorisation
- The provider books the cremation slot at Rainsbrook Crematorium (or another nearby crematorium) and completes the cremation on a date they arrange
- The ashes are returned to the family, typically within 2–3 weeks of death
You do not need to contact Rainsbrook Crematorium directly to arrange a direct cremation — the provider handles the crematorium booking and fees as part of their inclusive price.

No. With direct cremation, families are not present at the crematorium, so there is no reason to visit Rainsbrook Crematorium before or during the cremation. Many families arrange a separate memorial, celebration of life, or ashes-scattering ceremony at a location and time of their own choosing — often weeks or months later, once everyone can travel.
