You can register a death that took place in Leicestershire (not Leicester City) by booking an appointment at any of our registration offices.

After registering a death you’ll be able to use GOV.UK’s online Tell us Once service, which will notify most government organisations in one go.

Age UK have information on other organisations you will also need to notify, such as utility companies.
