I found
Steps to Cancel the Ticket:
1) Contact the Parking Company Immediately: Locate the contact details on the Parking Charge Notice (PCN) and inform them that the individual named is deceased.
2) Provide Proof: Send a copy of the death certificate. It is highly recommended to do this immediately to prevent the debt from escalating or being passed to a debt collection agency.
3) Use Official Channels: If the operator is a member of the British Parking Association (BPA) or International Parking Community (IPC), they are obligated to follow a code of practice which often includes compassionate consideration.
4) Appeal to the Landowner: If the parking company refuses to cancel the ticket, complain directly to the landowner (e.g., supermarket, hospital management, or residential agent).
