What To Do When Someone Dies

Registering a death is one of the first legal steps that must be completed before most funeral arrangements can fully proceed. In England and Wales, a death normally needs to be registered within 5 days, unless the death has been referred to the coroner.

Direct cremation is a simple and dignified cremation without a formal funeral service beforehand. It may be chosen by families who prefer a private remembrance at another time, or by those who want a more straightforward arrangement.

Funeral vehicles play an important role in the day of the service. They support the practical arrangements, but they can also add dignity, tradition and personal meaning.
