He will be serving as a helper for the goalkeepers, as he is not in the playing squad itself.
Taking to Instagram, Heaton said: "Incredibly honoured to be asked by Gareth (Southgate) to join the squad.
“To get the call to go to a major tournament, to help in any way I can and pass on my experience is a proud moment. We have a great squad, I'm excited and can't wait to join the group."
Fernandes, who commented on the post, said: "Great leaders are always welcome in any place. Congratulations, big man."
