Funeral home inquiry drop-in sessions for families

Police continue to investigate Legacy Independent Funeral Directors in Hull

Support is being offered to families affected by a major investigation into a Hull funeral home.

Humberside Police removed 35 bodies and a quantity of ashes from Legacy Independent Funeral Directors following a report of "concern for care of the deceased" on 6 March.

The independent charity Victim Support is due to run the first of several drop-in sessions, where people can find out more about welfare services available to them, later.

Two people arrested as part of the investigation remain on police bail.

Sessions will be held on:

• 2 October, from 10:00 BST to 13:00, at Spring Bank Community Centre, Hull.

• 8 October, from 13:00 BST to 16:00, at Haltemprice Leisure Centre, Anlaby

• 17 October, 13:00 BST to 16:00, at Lonsdale Community Centre, Hull

• 23 October, from 10:00 BST to 13:00, at East Riding Petuaria Centre, Brough

A 46-year-old man, who was arrested on 9 March on suspicion of prevention of a lawful and decent burial, fraud by false representation and fraud by abuse of position, remains on conditional bail.

A 54-year-old woman, who was arrested in July on suspicion of money laundering offences, also remains on bail.

Victim Support has a telephone support line for anyone affected by the investigation.
