About this event

Join inquest professionals, Sam Wright, Eleanor Howson and Zara Ameen for their webinar on Tuesday 9 September, where they will provide a basic introduction to the inquest process, offer tips on how to be an ‘effective’ witness and insight on what to expect.

This will especially benefit those who are new to the inquest process and provide a refresher for those who have some prior experience.

This webinar will cover the following points:

  • What an inquest is
  • What is meant by the ‘scope’ of an inquest
  • Why you might be called to give evidence
  • Swearing an oath/affirmation
  • The process of giving evidence
  • Who may ask you questions
  • Practical preparation (dress, behaviour, addressing the Coroner)
