About the coroner

Skip main menu

Coroners are officers appointed by the council to investigate any sudden or unexplained death. They are independent of both Local and Central Government and are required to act in accordance with legislation. Coroners in Cumbria have a small support staff and investigations are carried out on their behalf by the police.
