We are here to help you through this.
When someone dies, there is a lot of paperwork. Banks, building societies, utilities, government bodies — each one needs to be told, and each one wants different things. Steward helps you keep track of it all.
Register the death and arrange the funeral
The registrar gives you the death certificate and Tell Us Once reference. The funeral director handles the rest.
Enter the details
Who has died, your details as executor or next of kin, and what documents you have.
Review the will
If there is a will, enter what it says — executors, beneficiaries, and assets. We will use this to set up your tracker.
Gather your documents
Tick off what you have — death certificate, grant of probate, ID. We will tell you what each organisation needs.
Add accounts and organisations
Which banks, insurers, utilities, and other organisations need notifying? Search our database of 50+ UK organisations.
Submit notifications
Send emails, open online forms, print letters, and make phone calls — as much as possible in one go.
Track progress
See what is done, what is outstanding, and what needs your attention. We will tell you about deadlines and money-saving shortcuts.
Your privacy
Everything you enter stays on your device. Nothing is sent to any server. There are no accounts, no tracking, and no analytics. You can export a backup and delete everything at any time.
