We live in a society that's scared to talk about death, so we're not able to prepare or deal with it effectively. We believe the archaic £73B global death services industry is not catering for a deeper set of needs that we all face.

We believe in a world where you can approach death openly, we want to become the go-to, one-stop-shop for everything related to end of life:

Tools - Leave important wishes, information, messages, memories and tributes for loved ones.

Content - insight, opinions and stories as well as comprehensive guides & resources.

Community - safe, inclusive spaces for people to ask questions & support each other.

Marketplace - curated end of related services hub via affiliate links, physical & digital products that commemorate loved ones & deal with death.

Since launching in December 2020 - we’re already helping 60k+ users on our website, 20k in our communities and our content has been seen over 1.5m times.

We’ve already partnered with companies such as Dead Happy, Pure Cremation, St James’ Place and MND Association to increase our user base, expand our offering and grow our revenue.

"I think it's an excellent platform - I've done my preparations and I hope they will save my family a lot of hassle and reduce the stress and heartache." John Edwards, UK.

Join the Aura movement to allow us to help millions more people. Invest in the future, invest in Aura.
