Although many people make provisions for their loved ones in a will, most have not considered what might happen when they can no longer make decisions for themselves. With people living longer, there is an increased period of physical and mental dependency later in life.

A Lasting Power of Attorney is a powerful legal document allowing you to appoint a trusted person to make decisions on your behalf should you lose mental capacity to do so yourself. Powers of Attorney are required by banks, building societies, hospitals, care homes, insurance companies and local authorities, so it is a good idea to have one in place alongside your will.
