Join this lunchtime seminar with Winckworth Sherwood to build your understanding of the different types of Power of Attorney, when you might need them and how they can be used. As well as thinking about managing your own affairs, this event is also ideal for anyone with caring responsibilities, or those starting to help ageing parents, or other family and friends manage their finances and plan for their future needs.

Delivered by Tim Snaith, Partner and Head of Department and Philip Sillars, Solicitor, from Winckworth Sherwood’s Private Wealth, Trusts and Tax department, this lunch and learn will cover the scenarios when a Lasting Power of Attorney may be needed, how to register it and practical tips on how to deal with putting it into use.  Tim and Philip will also touch on the old “Enduring Powers of Attorney” regime, and court appointed deputies for those who have lost mental capacity without putting a power of attorney in place.

This event is being kindly hosted at Winckworth Sherwood’s offices in the Arbor Building on Blackfriars Road. A light lunch will be provided.  It is also an opportunity to find out more about the Bankside Carers’ Network and connect with other people who are managing their caring responsibilities alongside working in Bankside.
