Help! Grandparents have forgotten about bonds/investments in forgotten accounts?

Where do I start with this? They lost paperwork after a house fire recently. They have memories of which banks they’re with. That’s all I got. There are trusts they made for family members etc

Seconded. I used this site to recover my long lost Premium Bond account details. Took a few months but it worked as advertised with minimal input from me (name, DoB, five years' address history, IIRC).
