Does anyone have any experience of or recommendations for a book to record information such as account numbers, passwords and all the information that is needed after a death (in the UK)? These keep popping up on my Facebook feed and some are quite expensive. Some are downloads to print, some are physical books.

I ordered one from Coopers of Stortford which I have sent back as it was unsuitable.

I’m interested to hear any recommendations (or negatives) both on how easy it was to complete, and also if you’ve had to use one following a bereavement, how easy it was to follow/work with.

Thank you!

Age Uk have a free one you can download from their website or ring for a hard copy

Thank you both - have you used either of these yourselves?

I’ve downloaded the Age UK one and will look at it properly later.

I am recently bereaved and I will be creating this for my children to follow. Password to unlock devices is important. I bought 4 death certificates and you don’t need more as a lot is done with scanned documents

Thank you - there seem to be so many to choose from and some are quite expensive.
