Additional Support

Alongside arranging a funeral, we know there is a lot more to think about when someone has died. Funeral Experts aim to provide the support you need when you need it most. Here are just a few of the ways we can support you.

Bereavement Support

The death of someone close can be emotionally devastating, with the grieving process taking a significant toll on our daily lives and ability to cope. Each person experiences and works through grief in their own unique way. At Funeral Experts, we understand the struggles that come after a profound loss. Our aim is to ensure you receive compassionate, individualised support tailored to your specific needs during this incredibly difficult period.

Notification of a death

Notifying all the necessary organisations after soemone close to you has died can be emotionally draining, especially amidst the grief and stress you’re already experiencing.

We offer services like Tell Us Once and other notification platforms that allow you to contact multiple companies and organisations in one step, free of charge.

Probate and Estate administration

You may find you have been left to deal with someone’s estate after they have died. This normally means dealing with all their assets (such as property and personal possessions) and liabilities (such as outstanding debts) before transferring whatever is left to the beneficiaries. At what is often already a difficult and stressful time, why not let us ease the burden. Our proud partner, Kings Court Trust can support you with probate and estate administration with compassion and empathy, ensuring they are with you every step of the way.

Wills

The loss of a loved one may have prompted you to contemplate matters you’ve never had to consider before, such as creating a will. Even if you don’t have extensive assets or wealth, making a will is an important step to ensure your final wishes are carried out after you’re gone. Having a legally valid will can provide invaluable guidance and make the process much easier for your loved ones during an already stressful and emotional time. We are proud to provide specialist support with our partner organisation. Contact us at Funeral Experts now and we can refer you for specialist advice and support.
