A reminder Power of Attorney is arguably more important than a will, and more urgent.
Just had a call on @thismorning from an older lady asking about moving bills into her name from her husbands, who she's caring for as he has early stage dementia.
Yet she hadn't yet done Power of Attorney. This is by far the more urgent consideration. Get it done while someone has the capacity to sign it. Then if and when they lose their faculties, the transition so you can look after their finances (and health and welfare) for them is relatively easy.
If not, leave it too late, and the money may be locked away unless you got to the Court of Protection which is often and expensive and time consuming nightmare.
Better still get a PoA when young. I did mine before I was 40. It is in place, so that if I lose my faculties in the future at that point (not before) someone can take over.

An area I once called home has in a matter of a week made me feel helpless and robbed. I’m now sitting questioning living in #belfast now over the head of it. Call me a hippy, but imagine someone broke into your house and stole something irreplaceable to you. That’s me right now.

@KLM I have just rec'd an email to say my flight from Dublin next week is cancelled. I do not want a refund voucher. Please let me, and all those in a similar situation, know how to apply for a full cash refund. This would reduce the volume of messages if you would address this issue.
