24SEVENLIFESTYLE.COM | DECEMBER / JANUARY 2013/14 25 WILLS AND LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY Approximately 81% of people have not written down any preferences around their own death. This is not just for pesioners; it is something that all adults should consider, it is important to talk it through with your family and friends.

utting everything in place so that you can have the ending you want offers peace of mind, not just for us but P for those we love. When someone is dying or has suddenly died it’s hard to be making decisions and trying to think what they would have wanted, favourite tunes to be played, buried or cremated, flowers or donations to name a few!

However, it’s important to bear in mind that, although a hand written document with notes can be very helpful for both family and health professionals, it isn’t legally binding.
