Direct Cremations
Direct cremation at Durham, Sunderland or Hartlepool Crematoriums.
What are direct cremations?
Direct cremations are a simple unattended cremation, your loved one is treated with all the dignity and respect you would expect from Delanoy Funeral Services.
There is no funeral service, however this does not mean you cannot choose your own way of remembering your loved one in a place or time that suits you.
If you choose to have a memorial service at a later date we can help arrange this for you when the time is right.

Unfortunately with direct cremations, you cannot choose the date and time of the cremation or visit the chapel of rest (however this can be arranged at and extra cost).
We are here to talk you through each step of the way and all the options available to you, please call for more information.
During times when you cannot be there
At times when it is not possible to attend the funeral service, we also offer other services to help you reflect and say your goodbyes. We can arrange for the hearse to pass your home and for family and friends to say their final farewells. We can also create beautiful funeral notices for social media where friends and family can leave their condolences. (Please note there is an extra cost for these services).
