George Coates

16 June 2026

We invite colleagues, friends, and members of the wider legal community to join us in celebrating the life of George Coates.

The funeral service will take place at 1:00pm on Wednesday 8 July 2026 at Trinity Church, Sloane Square, followed by a wake at Chelsea Old Church from 2:30pm.

All who knew George are warmly invited to attend both the service and the wake. In keeping with the occasion, guests are kindly asked to wear dark colours or suits.

George’s daughter, Zinnia, has asked that attendees RSVP via the Facebook event:
