Planning for the future with a Will, Trust or Lasting Power of Attorney can feel like a big step, especially when you're caring for a child with additional needs. Knowing how to protect your child's future and make sure the right plans are in place can often feel overwhelming.

At Little Miracles, we understand these concerns. We know that every family's circumstances are different, and we're here to help you understand your options with clear, practical information.

Our friends at Buckles' Solicitors have recorded a workshop held to cover the basics of Wills, Trusts and Lasting Powers of Attorney, why they matter, and where you can find the right support to help you make informed decisions for your family's future.
