When someone dies, the shock and emotion can make even simple tasks feel overwhelming.
Knowing what to do next can offer a small sense of reassurance at a very difficult time.
In the first instance, the death will need to be confirmed by a medical professional. As soon as possible after a death, the next of kin must appoint a Funeral Director to manage the funeral arrangements and the registration of death on behalf of the family.
At Pitcher & Le Quesne, we are here to support you from the very beginning — offering guidance, answering questions, and helping with arrangements when you feel ready. You do not need to have all the answers, and there is no need to rush.
You don’t have to navigate this alone — we’re here to guide and support you with care and respect. 💙
