Organise the funeral

Does the Executor organise the Funeral?

If you are also a family member, then it is very likely that you will be expected to arrange the funeral in accordance with the instructions in the Will. Check if there is a prepaid funeral plan or insurance policy to cover the expenses of the funeral. Then consult with the key family members to agree the most suitable date for all in line with the available facilities. Be aware that almost everyone you encounter while arranging the funeral will require some sort of payment. Once the date, time and location have been agreed place notices in the local newspapers and the London Gazette. To get more detailed understanding, download our Executor Training course.
