An affordable funeral service your family can trust
Funerals on a Budget was one of the early funeral service providers to recognise the growing need for affordable funerals across London and the surrounding areas.
For over a decade, we have helped families arrange dignified, low-cost funerals without compromising on the care and respect their loved ones deserve.
As part of the Harrison Funeral Home family, Funerals on a Budget offers a dedicated, affordable alternative for families who prefer a simpler approach to funeral arrangements.
By focusing on direct cremations and simple attended funerals, with clearly defined packages and optional additional services, we can help families keep costs manageable while benefiting from the experience and professional care of the Harrison Funeral Home team.
Our approach is straightforward: simpler arrangements, affordable prices and the same commitment to dignity and respect.
We provide low-cost, quality funerals
At Funerals on a Budget, we offer two straightforward, affordable funeral options designed to provide a dignified farewell without unnecessary expense.
Direct Cremation – £975: Our direct cremation service provides a simple, unattended cremation without a traditional funeral ceremony. It’s an affordable option for families who prefer to remember their loved one privately or arrange a separate celebration of life.
Simple Attended Funeral – from £1,725: For families who would like to gather and say goodbye, our simple funeral arrangements include an attended service at a choice of crematoria across London and the surrounding areas. Prices vary depending on the crematorium and service arrangements.
Personalising the arrangements: Additional services may be available, including coffin upgrades, floral tributes, orders of service and other personal touches. Our funeral arrangers can explain the options and associated costs before you make any decisions.

Why Funerals on a Budget?
Funerals on a Budget was founded on a simple belief: everyone deserves a dignified and respectful farewell, regardless of their financial circumstances.
For over a decade, we’ve helped families arrange affordable funerals without unnecessary expense. As part of the Harrison Funeral Home family, we combine straightforward, transparent pricing with the experience and professional care of an established funeral director.
What is a Direct Cremation?
A direct cremation is a simple, affordable option where your loved one is cremated without a funeral service or mourners attending the crematorium. The ashes can then be returned to the family, allowing you to arrange a private memorial or celebration of life at a time and place of your choosing.
Can I use Funerals on a Budget if my loved one is already with another funeral director?
Yes, you can still choose Funerals on a Budget, even if your loved one is already in the care of another funeral director.
Simply let us know, and we can explain how to transfer the arrangements to our team.
Please be aware that the original funeral director may charge for services already provided, such as collection and care of your loved one. We will explain any additional costs before proceeding.
I need to ask some other questions. Can I contact you?
Of course. We understand that arranging a funeral can raise lots of questions, and we’re here to help.
You can call us on 020 8819 3469 or email info@funerals-on-a-budget.co.uk.
Alternatively, you can fill out the contact form at the bottom of this page.
What ways can I pay?
We accept payment by debit card, credit card and bank transfer.
Payment is required in full before the funeral takes place. Our team will explain the payment arrangements when you contact us.
What is the difference between Direct Cremation and Simple Funeral?
A Direct Cremation takes place without a funeral service or mourners attending the crematorium.
A Simple Attended Funeral allows family and friends to gather at the crematorium for a short service and say their goodbyes.
Both offer an affordable and dignified farewell. The right choice depends on your wishes, whether you’d like a service and your available budget.
Does 'Budget' mean low quality?
Not at all. At Funerals on a Budget, affordable doesn’t mean compromising on dignity, respect or professional care.
By focusing on simpler funeral arrangements and avoiding unnecessary extras, we’re able to offer lower prices while maintaining the professional standards of the experienced Harrison Funeral Home team.
Every family deserves a respectful farewell, whatever their budget.
I can’t pay without government benefits – can you still help me?
You may be eligible for financial assistance towards funeral costs through the government’s Funeral Expenses Payment scheme if you receive certain qualifying benefits.
The amount you receive depends on your circumstances and may not cover the full cost of the funeral.
Our team can explain the costs of our services to help you understand your options.
To find out if you are eligible, you can call the government Bereavement Service helpline on 0800 731 0469. More information is available here: https://www.gov.uk/funeral-payments
