Get help or support
When you are acting as executor, there are different types of support to help you with administration, costs, understanding what to do and coping emotionally.
Some tasks are the responsibility of the executor, while some can be shared amongst family and friends. These include:
- finding organisations
- organising the funeral
- contacting people about the death.
At other times, you may need more official types of support, such as:
- professional legal help with the legal processes involved in executing a will
- grief support to help you process and come to terms with the death
- financial support for the time and effort required in executing a will.
