As one of your goals for 2024, why not take the time to update your child’s Special Needs Trust Plan? It is not as hard as you may think; all that is required is blowing the dust off your original plan, a pen and some thinking time.
Why do this?
Life changes and so does your plan. To help, I have listed some areas you may need to address;
- Check if there are any changes to your entitlements and tax credits
- Have a read over your Special Needs Will
- Check that your Guardians and Trustees are still suitable
- Study your Trust Life Policy to make sure you understand how much is going to be paid out for your child
- Check the balance of your Special Needs Bank Account to make sure it is below the set limit
- Update your Letter of Wishes and send the new copy to your Guardians and Trustees
- Type up any changes to your Hospital Passport and Care Diary that have happened in the last year
- Carry out a little bit of research or book yourself onto a new training course for your child
If you are having any issues, then I am always at the end of the phone or email.
Wishing you and your family a prosperous 2024.
