Back in June, we had the pleasure of attending the CTT Live event, where we were lucky enough to share our story and reflect on just how far we’ve come. ❤️

What started as something that was only ever meant to be a little side job for Jan has grown into a business we’re incredibly proud of, and none of it would have been possible without you.

To every past, present and future customer, thank you. Thank you for supporting us, recommending us, trusting us and ultimately keeping our business going.

We never imagined it would become as successful as it has, and we’re so grateful to everyone who has been part of the journey so far.

Here’s to seeing where the next chapter takes us! 🥂✨

Don’t assume your loved ones can automatically step in if you lose mental capacity.

Many people believe their spouse, partner, or children will be able to make decisions on their behalf. The reality is they can’t unless you have a Lasting Power of Attorney in place.

Without one, your family could face delays, added stress, and even have to apply to the Court of Protection for permission to manage your affairs.

A Lasting Power of Attorney ensures the people you trust have the legal authority to act for you when you need them most.

Don’t leave your family powerless. Put your Lasting Powers of Attorney in place today! 💚🤎

A Will isn’t just about money. When you’re a parent, it’s about your children.

It’s about knowing you’ve made provisions for the people who matter most if the worst were to happen. It’s about choosing who would care for your children, making your wishes clear, and giving your family guidance during an incredibly difficult time.

None of us like to think about those situations, but planning ahead is one of the greatest gifts you can give your children.

Because protecting your family isn’t just about today. It’s about making sure they’re looked after tomorrow, no matter what! 💚🤎

The moment you become a parent, everything changes.

You spend every day protecting your child, but have you thought about what would happen if the worst were to happen to you?

A Will isn’t just about deciding who inherits your estate. It’s your opportunity to appoint legal guardians for your children and make your wishes clear, giving them security and protecting the people you love most.

No parent wants to think about the unthinkable, but planning ahead is one of the greatest acts of love you can give your children.

If you have children, don’t leave their future to chance. Put a Will in place and make sure they’re protected, whatever life brings! 💚🤎

The hardest conversations are often the ones we avoid.

Imagine your family facing one of the most difficult times of their lives, only to discover they can’t help you because no Lasting Power of Attorney was ever put in place.

Without one, the people you love may have no legal authority to make decisions on your behalf, leaving them with uncertainty, stress, and potentially a lengthy Court of Protection process.

A Lasting Power of Attorney isn’t just about protecting you. It’s about protecting the people who would do anything for you.

Give them clarity. Give them peace of mind. Put your Lasting Powers of Attorney in place before they’re needed! 💚🤎

When it comes to your home, who do you want to leave it to?

Have you made your wishes clear, or are you assuming your loved ones already know what you want?

If it’s not written down in a legally valid Will, your wishes may not be carried out. Instead, the law could decide who inherits your estate.

A Will gives you control over who receives your property and helps prevent unnecessary stress and uncertainty for the people you leave behind.

Don’t leave it to chance. Get it written down! 💚🤎

What would happen if you suddenly couldn’t make your own decisions?

If you don’t have a Lasting Power of Attorney in place and you lose mental capacity, your loved ones cannot automatically step in to manage your finances or make decisions on your behalf.

Instead, your family may have to apply to the Court of Protection to be appointed as your deputy—a process that can be costly, time-consuming, and stressful at an already difficult time.

A Lasting Power of Attorney allows you to choose who you trust to make decisions for you, rather than leaving it in the hands of the court.

Plan ahead while you can. It’s one of the most important documents you’ll ever put in place! 💚🤎

As a young parent, it’s easy to think you have plenty of time to sort out your Will. But life doesn’t always go to plan.

Accidents and illness can happen when we least expect them, regardless of our age. Having a Will in place means you’ve made your wishes clear and, most importantly, you’ve considered who would care for your children and how your loved ones will be protected.

You’re never too young to plan for the future. A Will isn’t about expecting the worst—it’s about giving your family security, no matter what life brings.

Don’t put it off. Put it in writing! 💚🤎

Dementia can affect anyone, and it often develops gradually. By the time someone loses the mental capacity to make important decisions, it may be too late to put a Lasting Power of Attorney in place.

Having a Lasting Power of Attorney means the people you trust can make decisions about your finances, property, health, and care if you are no longer able to do so yourself.

Planning ahead isn’t about expecting the worst. It’s about protecting your wishes and making life easier for the people you love when they need it most.

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Put your Lasting Powers of Attorney in place while you still can! 💚🤎

Just because you live with someone doesn’t mean you’ll automatically inherit their estate.

Many people are surprised to learn that unmarried partners don’t have the same legal inheritance rights as spouses or civil partners. Without a valid Will, the law decides who inherits, not you or your loved one.

A Will gives you the power to decide who receives your estate and helps protect the people who matter most.

Don’t leave it to chance. Put your wishes in writing and give your loved ones clarity and peace of mind! 💚🤎
