Report a death
We’re sorry for your loss.
To let us know that a member of one of the schemes has died, please complete the
online form
on the
Administrator’s website. The form will guide you through the information we need and will
help identify where any benefits are due and ensure that they are settled quickly.
This will hopefully reduce any risk of temporary financial hardship and any further distress at an already
difficult time.
The online form also contains links to an FAQ document and sources of external support and advice.
