joanne31-ga,

Once again, condolences. You mentioed you live in England, could you
tell us where you revieve your bereavement allowance from and a bit
more about the policy or entity that provides this to you. The more
details we researchers have here at GA, the better we can help you get
an answer to your question.

Also, when you clarify your answer, if you do it in the question
clarification section, it will notify us that more information has
been added, as opposed to the comment section where you stated your
location.

Check out this helpful tutorial with pics that one of our wonderful
researchers made:

The bereavement allowance is paid by the DSS and is approximately ?79 per week.

Contact directly the entity that is sending you the bereavement
payment and ask them what happens when that stops.
