January is a great time for getting your affairs in order. Here at Home & Company we love a ‘to do’ list, mostly for the satisfaction of ticking things off! Whether you need help sorting admin jobs that you’ve been putting off, or clearing a spare room that you never quite get round to the Home & Company team would be happy to help. Somehow those jobs are so much easier with a helping hand.
Legal and financial affairs
Do you need help sorting your finances or putting legal arrangements in place. If you haven’t already then you may want to think about a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) which allows you to appoint a person to handle your affairs if the time comes when you can’t make decisions for yourself. We know a small number of excellent law firms & specialist financial advisors so do give us a ring if you would like to be put in touch.
ReSPECT forms
Or you may want to put in place a ReSPECT form which sets out the medical treatment and care you wish to receive in the event that you aren’t able to make those decisions yourself. We have a lovely associate, Ruth Nunn, who has helped a number of our clients to put ReSPECT forms in place.
Decluttering
Most of us will admit to having the odd overflowing drawer that we never get around to clearing. But for some of us the problem just gets worse year on year. If you would like help with tackling clutter that’s built up over time do give us a ring. We’ve got a several people on our team who really enjoy decluttering and we’ve had success helping lots of clients over the years. Or it might be that you’d like help getting your photos into albums or sorting your bookshelves. Whatever your New Year’s resolution, we’d love to help you get it get ticked off.
Household admin
Another common outstanding item on the ‘to do’ list is sorting the dreaded mountain of paperwork with seems to pile up so quickly. We’ve got some great admin enthusiasts on the team so if you would like help with filing, paying bills, form filling, making telephone calls etc please do give us a ring.
Property maintenance
Has this cold and wintery weather highlighted any jobs that need attention on your property? Our team are very experienced and can undertake building repairs, small handy man jobs, and decorating and plumbing jobs. We also have an electrician and a security expert on the Home & Company team. None of us like to dwell on the issue of safety too much. However door intercom systems, secure locks, security lights, burglar alarms, fire and smoke detectors all help to give peace of mind when you are living independently. If any of these things have been niggling you then do give us a ring. And if it’s helpful we can arrange for our team to visit to give advice and estimates.
