When any illness enters our lives, it can be difficult to think about practical arrangements for the future. When a diagnosis of dementia is confirmed it is important to think about legal and financial affairs as early as possible.

A diagnosis does not automatically mean that a person cannot make financial and legal decisions. In this section you can read about steps you should consider. Take time to think about this area of your life. Don't delay, get the information and advice you need to make decisions which are important now and into the future.
