Planning for the Future

Equity ReleaseAre you looking to unlock money tied up in your home?

The words ‘Equity Release’ can often strike fear into many. Worries such as “Will I still own my own home?”, “Can I be evicted from my house?”, “Will there be anything left when I die?” and “What happens if I go into care?” are perfectly normal concerns to have.

Age Concern Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan are pleased to be working with award winning Equity Release specialists, Bower Retirement Services, who are able to provide you with the facts and separate the good guys from the bad. They provide true independent advice on Equity Release products and explain exactly how the products work and if it might be suitable for you. As members of the Equity Release Council, they only use companies that are also members, which means as a customer you are given specific legal guarantees to live in the property for the rest of your life and a promise that you can never owe back any more than the value of your home.

Schemes are available to homeowners over the age of 55 who wish to benefit from the equity that has built up in their houses over the years. There is no restriction on how you use the money; an additional income stream in these tough times, for home maintenance and improvements, a new car, holidays or more common nowadays in order to help a younger family member onto the property ladder.

Please call for more information, or to arrange a no-obligation appointment at a time and place convenient to you. If you live in Cardiff or the Vale of Glamorgan call: 029 2068 3605.

Funeral PlansIt’s often something that we would rather not think about or discuss with our loved ones, but planning for the future by considering a pre-paid funeral plan can offer much needed peace of mind for you and your family.

With an advant-age funeral plan from the UK’s largest independent provider Golden Charter, you choose the funeral plan you want and pay for it at today’s prices, relieving your family of any worries and uncertainty at what will inevitably be a distressing time. You will have made the arrangements in advance and taken care of the costs.

Page 9: Age concern cardif

Guide to services

Funeral costs are soaring but paying in advance can ease the pain for families and allow you to beat inflation which can offer substantial savings in the future. There are differing levels of packages available and you can tailor a funeral to your personal requirements in advance, incorporating personal touches or alternative ideas. There are also various options as far as payment for a plan is concerned, for example paying in one lump sum or setting up monthly installments. Age Concern Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan can help organise funeral plans and offer free home visits to explain all options involved to determine which is best suited to your personal needs.

Will Writing SchemeAn Affordable Will Writing Scheme from Age Concern

Making a will is one of the most important things you can do. So it makes complete sense to avoid any further grief and potential conflict

by making a Will and stating the people and charities that you would like to benefit. We want to ensure that you have the best possible advice about making your will and so we have set up a Scheme with reliable local solicitors to provide you with what you need. The Age Concern Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan Will Writing Scheme offers a reduced rate with numerous reputable local solicitors who will be able to draft your Will in a professional and comprehensive manner. They are also able to provide advice on any other legal matters such as Lasting Powers of Attorney.

All featured solicitors are independent but have joined Age Concern to respond to the needs of older people. Furthermore, all solicitors offer a home visit service if required. Some firms may charge for this service so please ensure you enquire before arranging your appointment or call Age Concern on 029 2068 3604 to discuss further.

Flowers in MemoriamAsking for donations instead of flowers at your funeral is another way in which you can support Age Concern Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. We guarantee that your gift will bring long lasting benefit to older people in Cardiff and the Vale.

If you would like your friends and family to remember you with donations to Age Concern instead of flowers at your funeral ensure you express your wishes to them or include this instruction in your Will or to your Executor.We would like to express our gratitude to the families of those who have already raised thousands of vital pounds towards Age Concern Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan from their funeral donations. This money goes a long long way in your local community.

Leave a LegacyAt Age Concern we know that caring for your family is your first priority and that choosing who to remember in your Will is a big decision. Making a Will is the best and simplest way to safeguard everyone’s future and ensure your assets go to the people and causes close to your heart. It’s a common misconception that you

have to be wealthy to leave a legacy. Legacies form a vital contribution to our charity and even a small proportion of what is left over, after your family is taken care of, will have a huge impact helping our charity continue to run crucial services for many years to come.

If like us, you feel passionately that your support should remain in the local area and help those in need living in your communities. Please consider leaving a gift in your Will to Age Concern Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. Every penny donated to our charity is spent locally and will go towards helping the many thousands of older people living in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan who desperately need our help.

Please contact our dedicated Legacy Officer to find out more about how a gift in your Will could make a huge difference to the lives of older people.
