Who We Are

Arrangingafuneral.co.uk is the UK's first and number one comprehensive online funeral guide, providing help and support to those who are dealing with death, arranging or preparing for a funeral, or coping with grief.

Losing a loved one is an extremely difficult period in a person's life and unfortunately, it is something that most of us have to go through at some point. This website provides instant access to valuable information, informative articles, direct links to helpful organisations and a directory of local and national services that can offer support and assistance to the bereaved in their time of need.

What to Do When Someone Dies

There are a few steps that need to be taken shortly after a death, such as registering the death, informing people who are close to the deceased, closing down accounts and cancelling payments.

The important thing is not to worry yourself with these details. We are here to help you and can tell you everything you need to do following the death, who to contact and the next steps.

Our Mission

By providing our visitors instant access to everything that is possibly needed following a bereavement in one easy to use, helpful, interactive web portal, we aim to make life and the bereavement process just that little bit easier.

Arranging A Funeral

Funerals are a time for family and friends to come together in hope and remembrance. They are a time for a "celebration of life" and can be a gathering place for family and friends to pay their respects, say goodbye and pay tribute to their lost loved one.

Faith, practicality, cost and the wishes of the deceased may all be important factors in deciding the type of funeral to choose. If the person who has died left instructions in their will or had a pre-paid funeral plan, making arrangements will be a little easier.

You can arrange a funeral yourself, but most people welcome the opportunity to pass on some of the responsibility to a funeral director who can look after your interests with care and compassion. We can direct you to professional funeral directors in your area, or we can help and advise you on the different options available to you.

Coping with Bereavement

The death of a loved one triggers feelings of grief in us all, but how that grief manifests itself, and how it makes each of us feel, can vary greatly. Everyone deals with bereavement in their own way.

There is no right or wrong way to grieve. Our advice pages and links to bereavement support services are here to help you through this difficult time.
