Passing parental rights on death?

I'm trying to get my house in order regarding wills etc. When ExH and I were together we lived in another country and as such had to have guardianship prepared for our children. Does such a thing exist here? ie who would have them immediately that day type of thing, until any problems with parental responsibility are settled. It would make most sense for my sibling who lives closest to have this form of guardianship so school and friendships can be maintained until (I assume) they go to live with their father (despite not having lived with him in a regular manner since we left him).

My money (hahahhaaaaaa 20p each- although I think I have good death in service cover) will go to my children, but I also want to ensure my family can still see the children should I die while they are under 18 and they go to live with their father.

How do I ensure this in my will? Can I?

(My ExH is a narcissistic loon with no friends and no links to his or my family who all currently see the children often)

You can include an expression of wish attached to a will that you’d like your parents to be allowed to continue to see /be involved with your children… not sure if it would be enforced though

Thanks. I'm hoping there's something enforceable too.
