Most of us don't like to think about our death, or the idea of being struck down with severe illness or incapacitation - so we don't…

Unfortunately our reluctance to chat about, and plan for, these scenarios means that some of the most important questions go unanswered, and when the time comes, other people make plans for you. However, the outcome from their plans may not be what you intended, needed or wanted.

Without a clear plan and instructions for others to follow, you risk leaving your future to chance.

Take a moment to ask yourself - "Who will get my estate if I die without a Will?", "Who would be my trusted guardian if I lost capacity?", "Where would I reside if I lost capacity?", "How would my funeral look?" and "Do I want to be resuscitated if on my death bed?"

Getting your affairs in order is an important part of preparing for the future and means that when the time comes, both you and your loved ones are protected.
