WHEN SOMEONE DIES

YOUR GUIDE ON WHAT TO DO WHEN DEATH OCCURS

In A Hospital Or Hospice

The bereavement team will be on hand to offer initial advice and support. Once you have registered the death, we can go and collect the person who has died.

At Home Or In A Care Home

A doctor will need to come and certify the death before we can collect the person who has died.

If The Death Was Unexpected

Or if the person has not seen their GP in the last 14 days, their death will be reported to the coroner, who may action a post-mortem or an inquest.

What to do first

Registering the death

You will need to make an appointment to register the death with your local registry office within five days.

We can help you complete this should you need any assistance, but we recommend reading through this guidance on the government’s advice page.

What to do next

Arranging a Funeral

Following registration, the choice between arranging a burial or a cremation, selecting a natural burial ground or an alternative kind of service is a very personal one and may be influenced by your family tradition, religion, or based on the wishes of the loved one you are laying to rest.

It may also be influenced by your financial position.

As your funeral director, we will work with you to create a funeral that has meaning and significance for you.
