Support, advice and benefits after a death

When someone dies, you may need emotional support for coping with grief. You may also want practical advice about your finances and benefits.

Scheduled maintenance

We're doing some essential maintenance - some services will be unavailable 4-6pm, Monday 18 August.

We recommend that you apply for any benefits soon after the death. If you apply too late it may affect the amount you receive.

People and organisations who can help you get through the weeks, months and years following a death.

If you're over 60 or on a low income, you can access a free counselling service.
