Note: you can add multiple images, and then use the left and right arrows on the image to scroll through the images.
 
This image will also display on the Deceased Search function which is viewable by the public, so ensure that images uploaded here are not of a confidential nature.
 
Once all your details have been entered, click Save. The following message displays – click Done.
