Get help with funeral costs
The UK government offers support for funeral costs through Funeral Payments, providing financial assistance to those who are on a low income and need help covering the expenses of a funeral. This support, administered by the Department for Work and Pensions, can help with essential costs such as burial or cremation fees, certain travel expenses, and the costs of necessary documents. Eligibility criteria include receiving certain benefits or tax credits, as well as satisfying additional conditions related to the relationship with the deceased and financial circumstances. Funeral Payments aim to alleviate the financial burden for individuals and families during a difficult time of loss, ensuring that everyone has access to dignified funeral arrangements regardless of their financial situation.
