Interesting summary of a #courtofprotection case striking a balance between protecting a lady from harm and respecting what is of value to her even though that goes against societal norms about cleanliness.

Applications relating to "hoarding disorder" are occasionally heard in the #NotSecretCourt. @KitzingerCelia reports. https://t.co/c3QkIqenzU

A very successful @Gilsland_Show yesterday.
It was great to have Alison Wilson and team from the @RABIcharity join us.
Thanks to all who came to see our #Agriculture team.

Interesting blog of #courtofprotection hearing considering best interests. What is striking are the many practical steps taken by the hospital and carer to address the young man’s concerns over surgery. The person lacking capacity is at the heart of these cases.

Soaps are great but soap characters are not always legal experts!
@Cartmells Court of Protection Team can advise you on making LPAs, acting as attorney and protecting the vulnerable - without any drama.

Good summary below from the OPG

[Office of the Public Guardian @OPGGovUK]

Lasting powers of attorney were mentioned on Coronation Street (@itvcorrie) recently, and while we encourage conversations about LPAs, we wanted to clarify the context around what was said… 📺

[Cartmell Shepherd Solicitors West Cumbria @CartmellsWest]

Hilary's words certainly resonate with us ...

We have 10 staff across our 6 offices who are trained
@DementiaFriends & we fully support the @alzheimerssoc

We feel it very important to provide excellent customer service, both face-to-face & over the telephone.

[Cartmell Shepherd Solicitors - COP Team @Cartmells_COP]

Good example of the decisions the #courtofprotection is asked to make on behalf of people lacking capacity to make that decision themselves, and how the court puts the best interests of the person lacking capacity at the heart of the case.
