Petition Details

Rules for coroners should change so unmarried partners who have been nominated as next of kin are recognised as such during inquests.

I lived with my partner for two years and was his next of kin, after death this resumed back to his blood relatives. I was not entitled to his medical notes and rights to attend an inquest.
