The prospect of needing care can be daunting, as it often means a loss of independence and reliance on others. While we cannot choose whether we will need care, we can decide how we are cared for if and when the time comes. The care sector is known for its uncertainties, with rising costs, uncertain legislative policy and increasing dependence on the private sector to bridge the “care-gap”. Therefore, financial planning for care has never been more crucial.
I found George’s presentation very insightful. He covered a range of topics including methods of funding care, the role of Power of Attorney and gifting, providing lots of really useful information, in an accessibly way. His presentation was clear, and easy to understand, and he took care to ensure that all attendees were familiar with the topics he addressed. George was very friendly and approachable, and good at explaining complex points in an easy to understand way. I definitely feel better informed about long term care financial planning after attending George’s presentation. Would highly recommend!
