Today marks World Alzheimer's Day.

In the UK, someone develops dementia every three minutes, and Alzheimer's disease remains the most common cause of dementia. It's a devastating condition that affects memory, behaviour and problem-solving.

According to the Alzheimer's Society, once you're over 65, your risk of developing Alzheimer's doubles roughly every five years.

We know that the subject of Alzheimers is a difficult one, even more so if there has been a diagnosis. The reality is that the future is something you can't control, the best you can do is to take steps to manage what can be managed. You naturally want to make the most of time with the people you love, but it's also important to think about what happens next.

As a Will Writer, Helen always encourages people to consider a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA). An LPA means that trusted people will have control over really important decisions when the person with a diagnosis can no longer make them themselves.

Find out more about Lasting Power of Attorney on our website: morrellwills.co.uk/services

Are you a carer? Do you know someone who is? This week is Carers Week. This is the time for society to recognise all of the people who are carers - paid or unpaid - and looking after family, friends and people in the community.

It's really important that we recognise these truly amazing people, who dedicate lots of time to looking after others, often on top of employment and other responsibilities. Appointments, care routines, medication - it can be a lot to think about as well as the usual life admin.

What happens though, when the carers need to be cared for themselves? Whilst we can't help with the day to day, we can help with the long term planning.

We can talk you through the practicalities of having a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) and a Will in place giving you complete peace of mind that, no matter what happens in the future, there is a plan - for you and those you care for.

Meet our Chief Wellbeing Officer, Luca! A firm favourite with clients, as well as staff, Luca provides essential wellbeing services through the need for walks and fuss - making sure our very willing staff get some fresh air and exercise. He loves a bit of fuss and attention.

As a trustee of Pets As Therapy , Helen, is very aware of the benefits having an office dog can bring, and there aren't many people who can walk past him without giving him a big smile and some fuss. Alwsys encouraged by Helen as long as Luca keeps four paws on the floor 😉
