of the person who has died, you may be able to get financial help from the
government’s Bereavement Support Payment or from War Disablement Pensions,
charitable funds or budgeting loans.

HOW DO I HANDLE THE ESTATE OF MY LOVED ONE?



Managing the estate of a loved one who has died can be very daunting. The first
step is to grant probate to the executor of the will. They will be responsible
for the paying of taxes and the distribution of the estate among the entitled
beneficiaries of the will.

WHERE CAN I FIND BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT?



If you are mourning for a loved one who has died, grief counselling can be a
very helpful process for adjusting to life after your loss. There are many
bereavement support charities in the UK that provide counselling, group therapy,
social events and other advice and resources whenever you need it, even if it’s
months or years after the death of your loved one.

WHAT KIND OF FLOWERS SHOULD I GIVE AT A FUNERAL?



Sympathy flowers are the most common gift for people who are grieving the death
of a loved one, but knowing which type to send can be difficult. Condolence
bouquets and funeral wreaths are often handled by funeral directors and they can
usually advise on what is most appropriate. Florists can also provide very
helpful advice.

HOW DO I WRITE AND DELIVER A EULOGY?



A eulogy, or funeral speech, is an opportunity to pay tribute to someone who has
died, by giving a short speech about their life and what they meant to you. It’s
regarded as an honour to be asked to give a eulogy for a loved one or friend,
and is a sign that you played an important part in that person’s life.

 4. HELPING CHILDREN THROUGH GRIEF
    
    Helping a bereaved child - whether you are their parent, guardian or other
    relation - is challenging because children think about death and loss in
    very different ways to adults. They might not be able to communicate their
    grief clearly, and how they handle it will change depending on their age.

 6. PHONE OF THE WIND
    
    Have you ever wanted to talk to a loved one who has died? Some people will
    make trips to gravestones, send text messages or write a letter. In 2010 a
    Japanese garden designer set up an old rotary telephone in memory of his
    cousin, inviting anyone that needed to to use it, to say a goodbye that they
    weren’t able to in person.
