Help & Advice

The loss of a friend or family member can be an incredibly difficult time alone, with the added confusion regarding registering a death, funeral planning and grief only adding to this. At the Funeral Guide, we aim to assist users throughout the bereavement process with a database of help and advice that covers every aspect of funeral planning and more.

The informative guides available cover the entire process following the passing of a loved one, from what to do when someone dies, to the government services and bereavement support available. Those experiencing this process for the first time may find the glossary of funeral terms we provide useful in understanding all of the information available on-site.

What To Do When Someone Dies

The very first measure that should be taken following the passing of a friend or relative is to make sure you are processing this loss in as healthy a manner as possible. This could mean anything from informing friends and family and ensuring you are not alone at this time to accessing professional bereavement support if needed.

There is lots of information regarding the initial steps to take after the passing of a loved one at Funeral Guide. Another way in which you can access support and advice during bereavement is through professional funeral directors, and all of the ones local to you can be found here.

Funeral Guide Funeral Directors

We have compiled information on all of the professional funeral directors around the UK on-site with a clear and tidy directory available on site. Here, users can find the details of funeral directors in Belfast to London funeral directors with contact details, company information and even price estimates to help users find the directors that is right for them. The interactive map feature at Funeral Guide allows users to see exactly where each funeral director is based by the details entered in our search bar.

Each individual funeral director page on site can feature verified reviews left by previous customers. These provide a real representation of the service received by these companies to people during the difficult time of arranging a funeral, which can help users find the company most suited to their needs.
