Will advice needed - is this above board?

Hard though it is, you have to separate the issues and deal with them differently.
It is clear that you are angry about how the uncle has in your eyes fiddled the system and profited from it.
But in law that is a separate issue as to whether your nan made a valid will or not. The reasons why it happened like that are irrelevant unless you are alleging coercion or some other irregularity when your nan made her will.

Surely this is the same thing, he obtains his money through an illegal activity he then put this money into my Nan's house (buying her a new kitchen etc) and asking her to pay it back through the Will, making it look like he has then obtained the money legally .... He did not do things around my Nan's house out of love he did it to tie up his money and get it back legally

No, money laundering is as said above money obtained from illegal activity. So unless he was selling drugs or doing burglaries or similar to get the money it's not laundering.

What it almost certainly is is benefit fraud, because he was receiving money that should have been declared to DWP and not spent on work on a house that wasn't needed and wasn't even his. It might also be tax evasion if he was getting funds cash in hand.

You definitely can report benefit fraud anonymously.

There is nothing wrong with an executor being a friend of a beneficiary or even a beneficiary. The will would be invalid if a beneficiary acted as a witness though.

Please go back and correct this false statement.

The will is still valid.
The witness loses their entitlement
