Hickton Family Funeral Directors:
What actually happens after someone dies?
This webinar offers a clear, practical and accessible guide to what happens from the moment of death through to the funeral. Hickton Family Funeral Directors will explore the journey step by step, from the care setting and medical or legal processes, to what happens behind the scenes with the funeral director, registrar and other professionals, and ultimately to the funeral itself, helping to demystify a process that can often feel unfamiliar or overwhelming.
The webinar will look at what can happen when things don’t go to plan, including coroner referrals, family disagreements, documentation issues and repatriation.
Along the way, we’ll tackle common misconceptions in a TRUE / FALSE / IT DEPENDS myth-busting session, followed by an opportunity to ask questions and explore anything you’ve ever wondered about the journey after death.
