any help?

I just wanted the benefit of people's advice on here if anyone knows about this subject because i dont know where to go from here.

i have just lost a family member very suddenly and the circumstances are that he was a student who worked part time and his wife used to be on JSA but started a full time job 4 weeks ago.

Does anyone know what kind of financial help might be available for funeral costs if any?
many thanks
