An award-winning tech company has launched a new pre-death service aimed at those who want to get their affairs in order.
Bereavement service, Settld, has joined forces with a range of partners to deliver its ‘Get Stuff Sorted’ programme.
It offers hands-on advice and practical assistance to individuals and families to prepare the paperwork and legal matters regarding end-of-life admin.
Over 31 million adults in the UK don’t have wills or Powers of Attorney in place to protect their loved ones and families, according to Canada Life.
Many also haven’t recorded their final wishes or put the rest of their affairs in order.
Vicky Wilson, co-founder and CEO of Settld, said: “Our online programme has been designed with various organisations to ensure customers can put their admin affairs in order.
Doing so means that people’s partners and families won’t face as much emotional stress and unnecessary paperwork following their death. We want to make sure everyone’s safe, so we’re introducing a package of services to get all the ‘important stuff’ done, start to finish, in just four weeks. Our virtual training and advice sessions help people through the difficult legal and admin trails, and are tailor-made for each individual that signs up.”
The training package, including assistance with wills, powers of attorney, and storage of documents is the latest offering from multi-award-winning Settld.
Settld recently announced a ground-breaking new partnership with Starling Bank.
Launched in February 2021, Settld enables members of the public to notify a death to over 970 market-leading service providers across the UK. That includes banks and insurers to energy firms, mobile providers, subscription services, social media platforms and others.
Settld’s online service also helps users close, transfer or amend accounts as well as obtaining date of death balances for probate.
