Fundraising challenge
There are so many ways to raise money for Age Cymru. Whether you want to run, cycle or skydive, knit, sing or bake, the money you raise will ensure we continue to be here for older people in Wales when they need us the most.
Making a will is the only way to be certain that your wishes will be met after you die. Without a Will, there are certain rules which dictate how the money, property and possessions should be allocated, which may not be what you would want
This is a legal document that allows you to appoint one or more people to help you make decisions or to make decisions on your behalf when you are no longer able. This prevents a stranger, or someone you may not trust, from having any power over decisions concerning your welfare.
An Advance Decision or Living Will is a decision you can make now to refuse a specific type of treatment at some time in the future. It lets your carers and health professionals know your wishes about refusing treatment and would only become relevant if you’re unable to make or communicate those decisions yourself.
During March and April 2022 Age Cymru, Cymru Older People’s Alliance (COPA), Welsh Senate of Older People, Active Wales, National Pensioners Convention Wales, and Pensioners Forum Wales worked in partnership to understand the current experiences of people aged 50 or over in Wales of the Covid-19 pandemic. We also asked people to tell us about their thoughts on the year ahead.
